i don't understand what type of work gets done at home when one works for a retail company like best buy.
when i think of best buy, i think of people in blue shirts trying to sell me the latest widget. if i think harder, i can imagine people who have to get stuff on the store shelves and maybe managers who have to create reports or something.
what type of jobs are actually "work from home" jobs at retail stores?
- yuniu 14y agoAre you really that retarded? Payroll, HR, finance, the website, tech support for in-store systems, planning for growth, product selection, manufacture liaison, operations planning for distribution, legal... Or are you under the impression that Best Buy stores appear out of nowhere, with stock selected and shipped from nowhere with no planning, with staff recruited and paid by nobody, no legal support, no tech support, and with some random blue-shirts making the website on their lunch hour?

- shanelja 14y agoThanks for that, I don't normally have any problems with a certain amount of aggression in a comment, but that one came across pretty badly, however, I think it would have been an order of magnitude less offensive had it not been for the leading statement.

- tjtrapp 14y agoIve never worked in retail. After reading your comment, my question does seem silly. Also did not know that its possible to down vote in HN. Anyways, thanks 4 the info.
