I used to work at Radio Shack. As we were struggling with three registers and five or more people in line, with nobody out on the floor to help customers, the district manager pressured the store manager to cut hours. After a while, the DM snapped, laid off over half of the district employees, and moved people around. My former store was left with three people; company policy dictated that at least two people must be in each store at all times. The assitant manager, a friend of mine, was moved to a store that had been cleaned out by the layoffs, and currently has two employees. I stopped by to say hello last week, and in the week prior to that, he had worked 105 hours because there is only one other person working in the store. As much as I wish I could find a job, I'm glad I'm not there anymore.
