Thread regarding Macy's Inc. layoffs

Still entertaining offers for company?

In the past month, anyone been on the floor when a series of executives have walked through with another series of people who are allegedly from Hudson Bay? There are rumors of Hudson Bay execs walking through stores with site management teams.

Has anyone heard anything else regarding company viability? This group to which I referred spoke in hushed tones; I'd never seen any of these people before (they were not a district team), and they were inspecting physical plant pretty closely. They also silently watched business patterns for a long time.

We have had several auditors out and safety inspections in my District. Maybe he was from one of those decisions? The safety auditor doesn't like anyone to know he is there and walks the store by himself.

This was more likely an outside party that was reviewing possible real estate acquisition for you particular store. Remember, Macy's real asset is the real estate and they are off loading a hundred doors.

The time to worry is when they measure and make drawings of fixtures and square feet of each department it happened to us formerly Marshall fields just after Christmas in January a guy was doing this and wouldn't say why but I had a hunch and in two months target sold fields to may department stores! Then take notice!

I'm in The New England CT/NY district and saw a man in a suit a few weeks ago taking pictures of points within my dept. I greeted him several times to make a point of exuding "Magic". But I mentioned it to a couple managers and none of them knew who he was or what I was talking about saying "we don't have any visits today". Before I even mentioned it though, I already had a feeling it was strange as I'd never seen him before and I know all of our district people. The part I found odd was he continued looking around and taking pictures each time I greeted him. He wasn't taking structural pics either. He was taking pics of displays and statement signs such as the registry statements posted within the dept. I couldn't figure it out. We've had a deep dive since and he was not within that group and there were no changes to the individuals who focus on the home dept during these visits.
