Live&DieBillsFootball Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 I just saw the announcement too and thought about Poojer too. Hope things work out for you!
kegtapr Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 Tough break Pooj. I've never kept my hatred of CC a secret, but it's the good employees like you that get screwed in the end. Less compitition is never good.
The Poojer Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 thanks everyone....it f***ing sucks. i am sitting at my desk winding things down, have to come in monday to see if and how long i will be needed( doubt i will be needed), but thanks to WARN(sp?) we are technically still employed for 60 days, we just dont have to do our jobs.....unless we get called back then we have to respond...oh well....things happen for a reason...thanks to all that supported circuit city...it was a nice company to work for
The Poojer Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 we didnt get screwed, we just went astray and couldnt make it back. thanks for the thoughts though Tough break Pooj. I've never kept my hatred of CC a secret, but it's the good employees like you that get screwed in the end. Less compitition is never good.
Helmet_hair Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 so what was it that took them down? Walmart? Best Buy? internet sales?
GG Posted January 16, 2009 Author Posted January 16, 2009 so what was it that took them down? Walmart? Best Buy? internet sales? Yes - in addition to self imposed over-expansion.
aussiew Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 So sorry Pooj. But I'm sure with your good record, things will work out for you.
dpbillsfan Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 Good luck. As having been thru 2 company shutdowns in the past 5 years I know what you are about to go thru. The "WARN" act is a good thing and hopefully you get some severance pay also.
Bullpen Posted January 16, 2009 Posted January 16, 2009 Good luck and hang in there Pooj. I heard the news on the radio this morning you were the first person I thought of. It's strange most of us wouldn't know eachother from a can of paint in person, but we still "identify" with one another. I'm sure you'll land on your feet. Good people always do. Take care, my friend.
