Thread regarding Barnes & Noble layoffs

Enough already!

Stop with all the doom and gloom! Yes, the situations is bad but for f—'s sake, it's not as bad as so many of you are painting it to be. No, we're not going out of business any time soon. Some locations may close, but that happens nearly every year. We are going through a crisis. Some stores will make it and some won't. The rest of us will continue as before. As simple as that.

BN are the ones all “ doom and gloom” They’ve cut staff so much, new releases aren’t making it to the floor in a timely manner. Customers aren’t getting the help they’re used to. So, they’re going elsewhere.

The “doom and gloom” hangs over the store like a rain cloud. Even the managers act like every day there could be their last. No one talks long term plans. We either do something immediate or we ‘deal with it when we have to.

Daunt has a plan all right. The plan is to gut the company and sell off the books to third party sellers, like Hamilton Book. And then he will shut you guys down. Down with Daunt and BN.

AHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAHAHAHAHAAAAHAAAA!!! "DREAM JOB", AHAHAHAHAHAHHAAAAAAAAAAAAA, "GOOD MANAGEMENT" AHAHAHAHAHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA, stop it, you're k–lin me!

Seasonal help, yeah right! Like a new person would risk writing on social media about the store.
Someone has a demented sense of humor. But then you have to be demented to work with and for such losers.

I just started as seasonal help.

The store is fantastic and my dream job.
Good management, too.

Don’t understand why everyone complains on here?

Our sales are fantastic, beating last year.
Daunt has a plan, and it’s working:
Christmas expectations are high, as they should be, considering we are a top store in New England.

All this “ doom and gloom “ is called reality.
You can live in denial & stay delusional, but the company was in bad shape before Covid and is in worse shape now. You can get another job ( Corporate will make sure they’re taken care of !) or go down with the ship.

I can't take it much longer, our store manager is making it unbearable. And the stress is making us all crazy. Who can be postive when hours are getting cut all the time and we can't pay the rent or buy food? Some of us have been waiting for years now for things to get better, years.
