Bu bu bu but Trump is gonna bring the jobs back to the US!

Meh.. Malls have been dying for years.. A few of the stories listed have been shytty for the last 10 to 15 years

Can't wait for the sales at Macy's
They're practically already giving shyt away

Don't get too excited, one closed around here and the sales weren't much different compared to what they have going on now or at any outlet. They just offer sales on the retail price, not sales on top of discounts, kinda sucks

Services is what this country is about going forward.

Supply Chain/Logistics is booming. Better learn to drive a forklift.

Those jobs aren't going anywhere.

this, the amazon warehouses must look like fukking small cities.

Keep dreaming... that's one industry that will keep expanding

Digital sales of games are rising every year. GameStop has been scrambling to keep up. It's one of the reasons why they've gotten more aggressive with their preorder sales.

I went into Sears the other day there were more employees than customers.

And they were even selling groceries now

after working in retail my entire teenage and college life, I HATED going to malls. And most clothing stores in general unless I really need to buy clothes.

That said, the mall was a cool place to be for generations of teens. A social gathering. A place to meet girls or see what other ppl are wearing, etc. So it sucks that it's slowly going away.


Also, i hate buying clothes online just b/c every size doesnt fit the same. And hassle to return in that situation.

I've said this many times.

A store like JCPenney is half the size of a high school with dozens of employees and it's dead for 80% of the week. No way are they profitable .

Even tiny shops in the mall are empty even on weekends.

The other day I was watching Fast Times at Ridgemont High and thought...wow, the mall really was the place to be.

It really was.

Walk thru the mall wit your homie, stop at Baskin & the Robin's, get a chocolate shake, 2 straws, then stop by Sam goody and pick up some CDs

They're also one of the WORST places to work for
