Won't they just all go and work for Best Buy?

No great shame, I will be quite happy to see them go.
I cant even feel too bad for the employees, the bright ones are smart enough to know better and the rest are incompetent at best.
Well, as business moves go, this makes sense. There's a fair few towns that have both stores in the same retail park and whilst the short term cost is fairly high in redundancy payouts, I'm sure it'll lead to a healthier business.
As for the "use" of these stores, we all have bad experiences with retail staff from time to time. Let's not forget that our society has made a majority of these jobs only deseriable for the lower end of society.

This is bunny and friends. He is fed up waiting for everyone to help him out, and decided to help himself instead!
Or commonly for students who can't/won't commit to longer hours than needed to pay their way?
I'm sure most students who work at the likes of Currys, Comet etc would like to work at a company which increases the value to their future employers but can't work a full week due to studying...
To be fair PC World have improved massively in terms of value for money. There is still the odd item that they're using to help pay for the additional retail costs, but it's a world better than it used to be.
For all those doing a bit of DSGI bashing (which is fine) just remember that people could potentially be loosing their jobs, I know the smart ones will jump ship before pushed but there are those who have worked for the company for years and don't know anything other than retail and it would be hard for them to get into another job with another company. Especially those who are nearing reitrement.
