Come on player you know the big wigs didnt think that far ahead. They do the high level stuff and think the details just fall into place themselves.

Textbook managers are not part of wholesale. You are fired for asking a dumb question.

TM = Territory Manager, worked to keep good relations between Follett and IMS stores.

I hope they negotiated 100% return rights for the FMS stores, otherwise they’ll become the new anchor on the company when they can’t just force B2B to eat bad books bought 18 months earlier that no longer have value.

When you say "TM's" do you mean textbook managers in the stores? Are they being cut?

Do you believe it now? By the way, everyone got a different narrative of what has occured. To break it down for every this is the real story.

Follett has decided and reached a deal to sell the entire wholesale business unit to Nebraska. By the end of this fiscal year TMs, IMS customer service, and all ADC people will be out of a job.

Dont listen to the lies about Nebraska taking on some of the people. They are in no financial position to create jobs just for the sake of creating jobs.

Over the next months HR will be making their rounds with the folders holding severance paperwork.

Within two years the whole corporation will fold.

I’m always confused with “must be a troll” comments. Company troll? Layed off person checking out the layoff site? Current on payroll using the venue as the water cooler? Most certainly not competitors the great sears strategy is junk bond status

Your all dumb and nieve. Implications of adc closing and wholesale being sold to nebraska far exceed just the warehouse staff. Let that marinate for a while and when your spine tingles you understand it time to get out.

Perhaps the Oompa Loompa and gang of former Follett execs now running NBC will buy wholesale.

Someone who can do a better job? I hope Follett has more than one basket.

So we close ADC and sell off wholesale to someone who can do a better job of providing books to our stores. Sounds like a good move.

After all the purchase of the Nebraska stores was a disaster...the stores were garbage and the undertaking was too much of a challenge for Follett support systems.

Maybe they are going to buy Nebraska Book and use their warehouse.

It’s the perfect time. Most of their orders are out and the stores haven’t started returns

Big deal, can’t get books from there anyway, have books sitting on the shelves that can’t be sent there. Layoffs? Can’t even get people to work at the bookstore, when I tell them the wage, they say no thank you.

Must be a troll. Who would close a distribution center, or reduce staff, just as rush is getting started? That would be insane.

So, if you're going to tease us, spill it. Who's getting laid off, or what is closing, or all of the above? Otherwise you're trolling and stop wasting our time.
