This sounds straight from a Blockbuster hand book. They were speaking in tandum.

Hey Hothead, you may want to take a break and re-read some of this thread. I don't see what you are seeing from this poster. It seems to me he's just still pro-BBV, not corporate mole.
The post above is what set me off. Its like coaching.

Good question, i was informed during an emergency call by our DM. when i called a Sm from another district he had no idea about the changes coming up, so maybe most will know by Monday or Tuesday, when regular conference calls take place.

We were told things are happening yesterday, but our DM would not reveal what exactly. I love that I learn things here before I hear anything at our store.

I for one am just a lowly store employee. If you go back and read my other posts on this site you'll see that not only am I just as pissed off at Blockbuster/Dish as most of the other employees on this site, but you'll also see that my excitement about a term change that might actually bring customers back into the store is the first remotely positive thing I've said since I started posting.

As far as why no one else is posting info, we didn't hear anything until our DM sent us a note in box office last night and all it said was that there may or may not be a term change coming next week but that we wouldn't know more until after our DM's regional conference call on Monday. I'll bet other DMs are being just as discreet and not all of them are sharing as much as the OP's DM.
