They say a fish rots from the head down and this fish stinks!!! W. Stephen Cannon (the W. Is for William) is circuit city's lead attorney. He is a pompous ass who treats female employees like dirt. He is sexist, uses the word 'hon' as in 'honey' to address all female staff regardless of their title, and dresses like it's 1986.
He has tried to pick up a few female employees but never succeeded because he is too old and gross for any of them to consider him.
HERE"S WHERE IT GETS INTERESTING - according to the DC bar, there was an attorney named William Cannon who had some serious ethical violations in the past... And where did our little w. Stephen cannon used to practice? In washington, d.C. Of course. He was going to get disbarred but reached a plea agreement at the last minute, paid back a few thousand dollars and got off with nothing else but a slap on the wrist.
4 months later guess who gets hired at circuit city headquarters 90 minutes away in richmond? YOU GUESSED IT - the same ethic-less attorney that had been busted months before.
THIS ATTORNEY IS A SHAM AND A FRAUD. He is the reason they have disbarrment proceedings.
Here's his bio from the circuit city website
