Thread regarding Sears layoffs

I worked for Sears since 1989, outsourced once in 2003, brought back when Sears was sold out to K-Mart and then outsourced again last year and finally decided to see what else "was out there" and found a position with another company. I am so happy that I did leave. For years at Sears I was in denial thinking that management knew what they were doing. I have seen many CIOs come and go every couple years. The current CIO is just a big doofus and I knew it was time to go. I did not realize how depressing it was working there for so many years until I joined a company actually making money.

Not sure why I'm posting here, but I wish the people I know at Sears (esp. in IT) would bail before getting hit by the wrecking ball. It's pretty obvious to me (someone who lives nearby) that the company is a downward spiral. Get out before the ship sinks!!

That's always the best way to handle things. Walk away with pride and class.

Winning attitude . You'll be fine.

Indeed. The trigger for me was when I realized that SHC was never going to be a great retailer in any sense of the word, but was being groomed as a financial basis for some other endeavor. Kudos to you for the victorious attitude.

Very classy bro! Doing the best you can all the way to the end shows you are WAY better than them!
