    the idiots at CompUSA

    Where does CompUSA find these people? I went to the local CompUSA in San Bruno yesterday afternoon, found an employee and asked if they had any Blackberry 8310's in stock. He turned to me and said "well, do we have those?" And I'm like "well, I'm asking you."

    What a useless piece of crap. I felt like kicking him in the nuts. Seriously - if they don't know what the hell they're selling, why are they even there?

      A few weeks ago the owner of the CompUSA chain stated that he was closing down all the stores and liquidating inventory. It's probably hard to keep your employees motivated when they know they are getting canned soon.

              Was he maybe reiterating your question to himself?

                  What they are selling is called close-out, is it any wonder?

                      I have no idea what they carry or don't carry. They've got a slew of demos on their displays, and I know they carry things that aren't even on display.

                      So I'd like to think I can have a little faith that the employees I ask questions to, might know a little somethin' about what they carry.

                          If there was ever a retail company that deserved chapter seven it's CompUSA.

                          I can't imagine the level of service in their last dying days.

                              well, what do you expect it's CompUSA, not really targeted for people who know much about computers.

                                      CompUSA is going out of business and has already sold everything to a liquidator who is in the process of running clearance sales to sell all the merchandise. Many of the normal employees are gone and temp ones are just there to close down the stores. I wouldn't purchase anything there unless you get a killer deal as you may have return/rebate issues after they shut down.

                                              Problem was they were retarded before they went tits up. Which is sort of the reason they died. Higher prices and moron employees (when you could find one).

                                                      The store closings were kinda neat in Cali almost a year-or-so ago...

                                                      They weren't kidding when they said everything must go (though I figured they moved all the popular stuff out already).

                                                      They were even selling a few of the lighting fixtures from the store.

                                                          I was bummed when they closed the one over here. Nice to have a place like that within walking distance.

It's probably hard to keep your employees motivated when they know they are getting canned soon.
