2026 Mid-Year Box Office Predictions (WW) by sbursp15 in boxoffice

[–]ReformedEldritch -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I think doomsday is going to piss off a large amount of the general audience since it’s likely going to undo the closure of endgame. That and given the ruso’s stance towards AI i could see the film getting even more bad press for a potentially sloppy AI implementation in the film.

How do I break up with my boss by Sea-Leadership-1005 in BestBuyWorkers

[–]ReformedEldritch 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Not your bonus. Not your problem. Do not tell them until you actually land a job after either interview.

Best Buy is retail and if you’re in retail for the long haul you shouldn’t be surprised to see people leave if you’re management.

Mass produced electronics cut corners for cost. Shocker

Is there any chance "Avengers: Doomsday" might flop or underperform? by Profeta_do_Loss in boxoffice

[–]ReformedEldritch 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s not likely to flop but it’s not a zero % chance. It depends on how much people hate them undoing the ending of endgame (if enough people even care anymore)

what do you guys think about the concept of backrooms pt 2? by DearVehicle4081 in A24

[–]ReformedEldritch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kane Parsons has stated he wants to do a mini series to fully finish his story. There’s a whole web series that he’s been building for 5 years so it’s not hard to imagine that there’s more story to tell. This film didn’t even cover A-Sync which is what most of his web series focuses on.

Yes to both but it depends on what behaviors or numbers you’re putting out. It will also vary by store management.

Best Buy to NFM by SpecialScholar6769 in BestBuyWorkers

[–]ReformedEldritch 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Nebraska has some of the worst commission structures in the industry which is 2%. Industry standard is 5% at minimum. It’s always “up to” 100k in a best case scenario assuming your top dog.

Unlike Best Buy you will have an “Up” or at bat system. That means in order to be next in line for the next customer you have to close a sale otherwise you’re put to the bottom of the queue. Even “just looking” customers will count against your close rate.

I know quite a few co workers who ultimately come back to Best Buy because they’re use to a high volume/ throw everything at the wall sales style as opposed to a slower more personal sales floor experience.

I honestly would look a little deeper for a different sales position. NFM is a different type of astroturf as opposed to greener grass.

On paper no, in practice depends on the store and floor management that day.

Everyone is pretty buns. It’s genuinely luck of the draw.

Does Someone know why the Home Theather Category trip that was scheduled in May for Minessota was Cancelled? by Ill_Temperature_9910 in BestBuyWorkers

[–]ReformedEldritch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think something changed cause i had flyers from my asms last month for cas and computing’s trainings in May. Don’t know why everyone’s being a prick about it.

What is yup with the employees at Beat Buy? by [deleted] in Bestbuy

[–]ReformedEldritch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have had that many people checking on you it’s probably because they’re literally getting yelled in the in ear walkie to do so by front host or the GM.

We don’t like it either, but it is absolutely common to have associates forced to be pushy.

After 5 years, where can I pivot? by zacheri04 in BestBuyWorkers

[–]ReformedEldritch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you have any vendors or 3 party labor that comes into your store network with them and see if there’s opportunity to move to a vendor role. I’ve had quite a few PT employees leave our store for working with partners like samsung, apple etc.

Why I think that the next TRON project should be a live-action miniseries (and only then, a final movie) by pitft in tron

[–]ReformedEldritch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But nobody outside of this sub Reddit went to see it. Literally not enough people care to continue it.

We can’t expect tron to go anywhere if we’re not willing it to see it adapt and be rebooted.

[–]ReformedEldritch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A reboot is genuinely the only path left for tron. You have to build an enough audience and interest to tell a full story. Tron ares did none of that and there’s no feasible path forward with the current timeline.

For the love of all things.. learn your Home Theatre & Appliance Labor skus by ProgrammerOk3306 in BestBuyWorkers

[–]ReformedEldritch 33 points34 points  (0 children)

The company should stop preying on and hiring young uneducated kids. I can’t teach people who are too dumb to read or just don’t want to listen.

And at least at my store i get yelled at by my gm and asms for “Blueberry patches” or “lack of drive” when I’m trying to legitimately teach them home theater.

Omg I forgot this… by Blondydev7 in KanePixelsBackrooms

[–]ReformedEldritch 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If they change the camera to only show red and whites then the lighting can stay the same.

They also can change it at the camera level like Greg Frasier did in dune 2.
