Corporate Denial

I just called corporate in NY asking about store closures and liquidation sales. The very rude lady said they are never closing! Amazing how a phone operator knows such detailed information about a major corporation. After she hung up on me, I tried calling back only to be met with a number disconnected message. I also have a call into the DM of my region.

Down with BN. They do not care about their customer base. Let's all make sure they go out of business. Spread the word to make BN the downfall of 2020.

If they won’t tell their employees when they’re out of a job, you think they’ll tell a caller?!?!
When every one who stayed ,thinking their job was safe, starts posting its over, then you’ll know.

You're not gonna get any answers. Even if you identified yourself as a journalist the most you're gonna get from anyone is "we have no comment on store operations at this time."

So, you can call corporate and just ask about store closings and you think they'll tell an anonymous caller? Of course they wouldn't give you that info. Plus, you got an operator for their offices. C;'mon. Move on.

As a former employee I too look forward to BN closing !
Treated caring employees like trash. Threw them away after they dedicated their careers to the company.

Did you say you were a reporter or just a disgruntled employee?
Did you really expect an answer?
