Thread regarding Sears layoffs

Nothing to see here- move along

Tomorrow sears will announce that ESL’s go forward bid has been accepted and we will finally be able to complete the transformation.

Those who have remained loyal are about to be handsomely rewarded. Those who have left well, good riddance.

A new day is dawning!

The OP's post is a perfect example of the pigheaded thinking of Sears corporate leadership that brought it to bankruptcy.

Leadership walking around in a state of denial thinking and saying everything is just fine while the company is collapsing around them.

@1jdp Thanks, good to know. Lousy of them to wait till the supposed day of delivery to quietly pull a fast one on that customer.

Actually that's in line with the Go forward plans I heard about. Top 5% of customers are like 95% of sales anyway. Best dump the bottom 90% into retail channels from a profit perspective.

"Those who have left well, good riddance."

Gee thanks. -- All those that lost jobs after our stores closed.

@fbd "You’re most likely shutting it down tomorrow - you have sales reps from Kenmore Direct telling customers as much."

Interesting, I haven't seen a post about that here yet, do you have any more details?

If you believe for one minute that Sears will survive, is an absurdity. Also, OP, if you are not a shill and you actually believe that you will be handsomely rewarded? That qualifies as being delusional. Same goes to everyone who believes this

But...but....but....some windbag who claimed he was always right stated that we would hear this same news on Saturday....that Eddie's bid had been accepted....Well, Saturday came and went without any big announcement.

So the Company shills continue their meaningless charade.

Source? Or it ain't happening.

The B.S meter is off the charts on the OP's post.

If Eddie couldn't turn around Sear/Kmart in the last eight years, how is he going to do it now? The stores are dumps, need tens of millions of dollars per store to make them nice. Logistics are bad, decades out of date. Billions needed here.

I went into a remodeled Target, it was really nice before, but now, it's awesome. Why would I go to a Kmart?

Saving jobs is a moot point as 80% of the jobs are already gone.

If he wins then how does Sears recover all the vendors that now have a sour taste in their mouth after years of being shafted?

Even if he wins the bid, we will need another loan to purchase product. Most vendors at that point will be cash up front.

Will we ever receive product like we used to?

Will we get staffing levels back to an acceptable level to put an end to everybody having to do multiple jobs for the same pay?

How do employees benefit other than still having a job?

Does a matched or at least company contributed 401k come back?

Will the company start an ESOP and give out monthly or quarterly bonuses in the form of shares?

There are too many questions and no answers.

However one thing is guaranteed, the employees will still be shafted in the long run.

My overall outlook: Sears is f---ed, especially if Eddie wins.

0/10 for troll originality.

You’re most likely shutting it down tomorrow - you have sales reps from Kenmore Direct telling customers as much.

I think Jim Jones said something similar just before handing out the dixie cups
