HUH, glad I am not the only one who has noticed the decline. I have made several nice friendships over the years, mainly with regular customers to my department. I have seen the decline, from what it was when I came on board, through its Walmart stage and now well below that. Well spoken about Club, and it annoys me to no end how employees get brow beaten to no end to hustle those darn cards. Does base camp really know or do they really not care? One store had its assistant store manager get terminated; the store manager then hired his brother-in-law as his new assistant manager. That assistant would troll Facebook for employee accounts, read what was posted about the store and pass that along to the store manager. Several employees got called into the store manager's off about what they had posted. How corporate allowed that hire is way beyond my comprehension. That store manager got transferred to another Bass Pro store and is still there. The brother-in-law got let go during another of the middle management cuts a few years back. It's all like the "good ole boys club"
