Any update on when layoffs would begin? Store closings? Positions being eliminated?
I’m hoping someone on here can shed some light.
Thanks.

Start updating your resume. What will you do with all the years of retail experience. Go to work at Walmart? Target? Enterprise? Agent? If you stay in retail, you will never make VZ money.
Agents will take over and you can stay and make $10-12 hour as a rep. Manager will make $50k. Good times are over. Cut your spending now. Find a less expensive apartment or downsize your home. Also, you will not afford a BMW anymore.
Such marvelous theories; tell me more about the Antarctic ice wall.

Maybe I’m being paranoid but, could be that this repeated 8pm drill is a dry run, practice for a permanent store closing? It’s so clear now. What a masterful plan.
I cannot see how any other scenario but this makes any sense at all.

I’ve seen this before people.
It’s always the same pattern.
At 8pm, right, @1kam. Same here in NY, and all along the East coast. They seemed to have dimmed some lights, and locked the doors. Employees Were seen leaving.
However, this seems to happen each night, exact same pattern.
I wonder what it means?
They just closed a store in PA
Here in the SEM, Retail stores have been closing at 8 PM for quite a while...
By june end all the clean up will be done....but this time it's gonna be silent layoffs.no announcements.
Stores closing at 8pm.
