This is absolutely the most stupid waste of time the company has ever handed us. We sat on conference call for an hour and a half and they basically told us, "You're not actually doing any of the selling, you're just talking about the program and if a customer is interested enough to order then get them on the phone (in the store) with Dish and they'll close the sale for you."
That is absolutely retarded. You have my approval

What up man?!
Kinda feelin like the middle man huh?
Yea makes perfect sense really, they put all the pressure on us to keep our jobs as they shove hopper down our throats and joeys in our ass.
On the call today, they talked about our old ASM's store he has now, how they had that whole dish setup for 3 months and never sold one subscription...

Since I have left Blockbuster back in 2006, I have read about Cam on the forum. And something never sat well to me about him.

To be frank, as a former SM/DTSM, I am extremely suspicious of the whole thing. I frankly would be investigating his store. It is possible he is purchasing things himself to make his numbers look good. I wouldn't be surprised if the DL is involved either, to make his district look good.

If he is doing all this, not having high turnover, etc. then he is either in an area with

1) an unusually high disposable income from the customer base

2) a highly unusual & submissive customer base

3) he is cheating

You can only talk about "how good your salespeople are" for so long. The customer plays a huge factor into this as ultimately it is their decision to say "yes" or "no". And having this highly unusual customer base that says "yes" to all of this doesn't sit well with me. It never has.

At first bet, I would suggest if it is something like passes, he is doing a combination of bullying his staff AND buying them himself to inflate the numbers.

However, I don't think there is anything against policy per se, of buying passes yourself. However, he obviously isn't going to admit it, and nor does corporate want that admitted either. Because it makes a good "story" and "example" for other stores. And corporate is protecting him and his "story".
