Hello,
I am a reporter with WFXR, Fox in Roanoke, and we are doing a story about the layoffs. Might you or anyone else in the Roanoke area be willing to speak with us for our story? We're willing to keep sources anonymous, if needed. If interested, please e-mail me at keskow@virginiafirst.com.
Thank you!

What is new?
Is it a lifetime servance package?? Of course not. CEO total comp per year is 21 million, I would not pay him minimum wage to work in a store. Classic case of the rich get richer and everyone else gets crumbs.
@1nkx - that's what I thought, people will worry about the severance agreements which prohibits talking to the press...
Yet, people are doing this all the time (talking to the press) - I am sure Kristen will be able to find one or two people who are pissed enough so they will talk....
In my case, I was planning to quit in September (back to school) so being laid off with severance worked out quite nicely for me.
Good luck for all...
Good luck ! Those that did lose jobs did so with very healthy severance packages
Which are at stake it if tied to negitave press internally or public
