For 4th if July Or... Are we now shooting for Labor Day

Noticed on their website they have very different hours Sunday 12-5 Mon thru Friday 10-8 Saturday 10-9 Is this something new? Wonder if other stores will eventually go to these hours

When I saw the post on here the other day with all the electronics items being talked about I assumed it was BS. Up until today we had a few TV’s and some miscellaneous junk in our “electronics” dept. Before I clocked out (west coast store) the SGM... — read more

There are very few of us left ( HA Sales Lead) Are they going to get rid of us all together Does anyone know or heard anything ?

Someone mentioned it earlier in this blog and I’ve been hearing from reliable sources SM and up that something is happening that day.... Who’s getting cut July 10th...

I think Sears would have been much healthier, much longer, if Kmart would not have swallowed it. If Eddie had never been involved, then the many billions that were frittered away on stock buybacks would have been used to maintain stores, buy... — read more

I wd like to know why the DMs are not doing more to drive traffic into the remaining stores? If their only function is to Demand pictures of RES at zero on ad day or to say this product should go there not here and continue to cut part timers hours... — read more 

I wd imagine the results of inventory next month will determine more store closings, especially if shrink is out of control. How many others are doing inventory in July? Won’t the results coincide with 2nd quarter earnings report?

How is it that we are closing stores left and right and yet we have to recreate electronics now to carry video game and Apple products? Even Apple watches? Who’s going to be buying this?... — read more 

Anybody noticing that the latest closings announcement is not really making the news? Up until now, every new announcement would spread like wildfire. This time I have so far seen two sites mention it, that's it. Is the media getting tired of us? Are... — read more 

My director called me at 3:58PM to tell me this would be my last day then handed me off to HR. I work out of a location in Texas, but report up to a leader in HE. So I'm not included in the HE headcount but I was definitely impacted today. "Stealth"... — read more 

Is your store still accepting them? Some are not because people are trying to return merchandise from closed stores . Is it just going to end up that no store accepts them?

10 more Sears/Kmart store closings announced.

Why not just leave as is to prove you have to have a staffed store of more than 1 person to do RAD/RAN The frantic pace to clean up for the DM is a joke!!! The DM should pitch in and help.. I’m sure with their store count shrinking they have the... — read more 

They've normally replied within minutes since last year. They have not answered my emails for like 2 days now.

it feels like we are all sitting in a bus who's engine has long been sold, the wheels are all gone, and the people on board are all sputtering their lips making engine sounds, and rocking back and forth, pretending to go someplace. There is no energy... — read more 

Seems Sears handwritten signs are not making a positive impression. https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/companies/sears-debuts-handwritten-signs-in-stores-in-an-apparent-effort-to-slash-costs/ss-AAzfBU7?li=BBnbfcN#image=1

To ensure their stores are fully staffed and new employees are trained Too bad sears will not follow their lead

It's a perfect situation for Eddie that not only is he a majority shareholder, he is also the CEO. Because of this, he can orchestrate a controlled liquidation. Remember when Louis d'Ambrosio stepped down? I think it was because he said there was a... — read more 

I am sorry to all of those affected by today's layoffs. With hindsight for SHC employees, who would have preferred lampert to liquidate and close stores in the 2005-2008 period, rather than this "transformation"? Would it have hurt more to be stung... — read more 

I'm hearing from additional people getting laid off today as well. Hang in there - there is life after Sears & it is good.

Lame.

Is it a possibility? What about part timers filing for underemployment since we get cut to 4-6 hours a week but want more Is it a possibility Anyone know how the unemployment works in Michigan?

Are there layoffs today at corporate? I keep seeing these posts pop up but there's no info. What's going on? Nothing happening at store level, at least here.

Banned by thelayoff.com likely due to server lag caused by excessive access requests from internal users. Just goes to show how many people in the building are relying on this site for updates on those being let go today. Not like management can be... — read more
