CC is getting pretty sad

[ESHernandez]

Went to CC in Lake Worth TX last night for one last visit and to say good-bye.

I was never acknowledged. Total of 5 employees.

In front: Girl with a marker. Just waving people by.

At Register: Girl with her kids and boyfriend at the register and on the phone the entire time.

In the back: Half the store tape off with DO NOT ENTER. Three guys playing football..

IMO, just close it and be done with it.

surely you weren't expecting anything like normal customer service, I mean what are they going to do fire them a day early?

W.Falls CC is said to close on March 16... I don't know how it'll last that long.

I thought CC was 'Country Club', or some kind of western dance hall like 'Cowboy Country'.

Ha.

That was my experience two Christmases ago at the Firewheel store. There was this little high school girl trying to get product out the door but she seemed to be the only one working. There were about eight guys standing around the cell phone booth chattering.

When the Best Buy opened up on the other side of 190, I told the manger there not to forget about service and he would drive Circuit City out of business. I didn't know I was prophetic.

Glen, Did you notice that the Firewheel store smells kinda funny? My 7yr old daughter won't go in there because of that.

those guys have nothing to care about...what are you gonna do? give them a bad customer service report? Is circuit city going to fire them?

rofl

yeah, it's no wonder they don't care...they all know they're on the last few days of a paycheck and finding work isn't exactly the best prospect right now even for retail.

I went to the one in Killeen yesterday and it wasnt too bad really. The guy at the checkout at least had good taste in music.

The Circuit City store closest to me had relocated about four years ago. Last time I'd gone into the original location, it smelled like raging butt so we never returned. I think I have spent a whopping $30 at Circuit City since and won't really miss it when it's gone. Hate that people are losing jobs, but from the experiences here some of the employees might not know it until later.

Went in and most everything, even with their discounts, is still overpriced. I'm not paying $300 for a camera with obvious scratches that comes without a battery.
