Best Buy just laid off 51k workers

How is Office Depot able to be open like nothing, but Best Buys are all closed.

Office Depot is deemed an essential business since they deal in office supplies and computer accessories, Best Buy is more of selling entertainment items

This is true, but c'mon, a lot of these stores and jobs are not coming back. We'll see more of this kind of "layoff" very soon. Best Buy just gave other stores a pass.

Best buy been in trouble years ago. There was talks about best buy being in some shyt from or nearly decade ago. Where youve been at? Nothing to see here.

Yes..you can order stuff online for shipping or go to the store and pick it up outside lol

Why have 51k workers when they can just operate as an online retailer

Trust me. Best Buy does not WANT to operate as an online retailer.
