fukk no. If you actually READ the article it says their sales were doing fine until the nationwide shutdown. And it says it’s bringing back these people when they open back up.
yeah, best buy has been managing to stay afloat and earn profits since then
i don't know how they do it but whatever works

The only ONLY reason to shop at BestBuy is to use their credit. 0% interest for 18mnths.

I just bought a major appliance from them last week and those a$$holes dropped the shyt off at my door. No installation because of Covid but they didn’t tell me that until Later. I had to hire someone else to remove my old one and install my new one.

Been buying movies like crazy from them. In the past month I know I've bought no less than 20-25.

This is the only reason I bought my TVs and appliances from them until they played me on a warranty. I paid the card off and closed it. Best Buy won’t get anymore of my money. I feel sorry for the workers but Best Buy is super unethical with their practices. No customer service what so ever.

Not surprising, and atleast it’s a furlough. Those employees can get unemployment, possibly earn more than they were while working there, and hopefully come back when this is all over.

Best Buy is on borrowed time, though. I can remember working there in college, and hearing from the higher ups at my store how they were always shutting a store down here or there
