“Lazy full timers”?
I was a full timer and I was dedicated and worked very hard before I got laid off. When the first signs appeared that they could ax me, I worked more and more, until I was exhausted. I thought I would end up with some serious medical illness from... — read more

WESTWOOD KMART IN NJ
I noticed, for some reason, there is one particular poster who happens to have an interest in WESTWOOD NJ KMART. Take a look at this vid, the store is desolate, sorry, and virtually unoccupied. Sorry, but it will most likely be on the next list... — read more

It’s high time to leave
I have no intention of causing panic, but it is my well-meant advice to highly prioritize looking for a new job. Taught by my experience, it is terribly difficult to find an alternative. There are more candidates for one job than ever. I know a lot... — read more

Liquidating pharmacies
OK, probably a very stupid question, but I was genuinely curious. How do they liquidate pharmacies? After all, they can't just mark down Viagra or Penicillin 80% off and let anyone buy it. Do they just transfer the stuff to one of the few... — read more
