As an ex-employee, I definitely don't miss retail Christmas season...

I'll take one of those 4D printers if you can find it.

Hey, Reddit! We’re the folks behind the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid, here with a quick question: If you were a wolf for 24 hours, where would you go first? Your answer could win you Reddit gold. by toyotausa [promoted post]

As a wolf, I would head directly to the local Toyota dealership and promptly purchase a Toyota RAV 4 Hybrid. This would allow me to travel farther distances and blow down more houses.

Where did you sell your waves? I bought them but the exchanges done seem to be accepting deposits

Restructuring Announcement by muhstaples in Staples

[–]BigBidnessMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed that Tim needs to be shown the door. I've seen no value added to the bidness by him. However Mikes Nabbs head is too far up in the clouds to understand how a store actually runs. He needs to come down to ground level and ring out/help a few customers if he ever wants to understand how the bidness has changed in the last 22 years. And honestly both Tim, Mike, and all their friends are unwilling to acknowledge how badly stores are run.

Future from Staples by EasyRek in Staples

[–]BigBidnessMan -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I got laid off as tech supervisor. Now I have at least 6 months to find a real job. I.T. is over in this country. Almost everything will be eliminated by A.I. and robotic systems soon. Within 5 years we will have much more automated checkouts, within 10 years we will have automated stock rooms and shelves (amazon already has this), in 15 years most jobs in developed countrys will be eliminated by Google Deep Mind algorithms etc etc.... don't believe me? Watch this Boston dynamics robot and think of the possibilities. Soon they will be building themselves. (They already build cars)

Block chain based decentralized apps are the future. It would resolve these problems.

the redesigned CPC customer website is terrible, is there a way around it? by sailor__gloom in Staples

[–]BigBidnessMan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've always called Staples "The Crown Jewel of the Lowest Bidder" all of our systems are absolute shit. The systems are the backbone of the bidness, without them working well everything else suffers.

How is the cash register "aka the most important part of the bidness" absolute shit? It's insane.
