Their instore employees were rude, showed no interest in their job or helping the customer, and when asked questions never had an answer. Not to mention that they regularly only had 2 cash out lines open and 20 closed and those working the registers had were more interested in talking to the cashier next to them about the party last night, their new nails, their new dye job, or what they were gonna do tonight than they were in getting the customer rang up and out in a timely matter.
Their service level sucked and people voted with their wallets for Walmart and Target.
By comparison, you would think Bush would help to bloat K-Mart and make it "prosper", seeing as he is more corrupt than Clinton, knowing how Clinton used his power to bloat Enron
< /sarcasm >
That is why I shop at Wal-Mart before K-Mart, and why that great sucking sound you hear is the sound of K-mart going down the toilet. It's just a matter of time.
Finally, some voices of reason among all the Rosie/KMart bashing. Most people here don't seem to remember or care KMart fired Rosie. The fact that they hired her in the first place (big mistake) is all they need.
Agreed. Why do their stores look so...old and worn? I thought KMart was trying to renovate them?
You can understand why it was such an odd mix with Macy*s, Bloomingdales, etc.
I'm sure they'll agree that conservative shopping habits had nothing to do with their demise. Just like the Disney boycotts have nothing to do with their declining fortunes.
How many little people investors have been hurt by K-Mart?
How come Tom Daschle didn't warn the American people of K-Mart tanking?
Where is Tom Daschle's concern and disappointment for the unfortunate K-Mart employees and their families?
