This is why after a year of working for the company I get laid off even though I had the best numbers in my store

Something about that $3.35 million number strikes me. I remember when I was a kid, $3.35 per hour was minimum wage. There’s something here that just feels me to like, here’s a guy getting a million times minimum wage — even though there’s really no comparison and this isn’t an hourly wage. It just rings that bell. A million times minimum wage.

Dunn knew that traffic was declining and he Chose to squeeze every ounce of profit from the fewer customers going into hisbstors. this took firmin extended warranties and technology obsolescence warranties, less selection of cutting edge third party products and more drive toward higher margin Dynex, Insignia, Rocketfish house brands (yeuck).
HE chose to not invest in BIG BOX retail experiences and to Jack the few remaining customers till people feel that they can get better value, mot selection and improved sources of information online.
