Honestly circuit city going under was a net positive for all my friends income. #circuitcity #grift #recession #elonmusk #twitter #pearlmania500 #itsgettingworse #resume #2009 im sure some tech bro will come into the comments to tell me how this doesnt work anymore. Dont care.
I feel like if anyone would appreciate this video as much as I do it’d be you guys. It’s a little long but totally worth it.
Absolutely, back in the narrow window of 2009-2010. Everyone who worked there got laid off and needed new jobs, so there was nothing suspicious about a swarm of resumes hitting that claimed to work there. I myself got sick of working at a gas station, so I applied at a local office business, slapped “Department Manager - Circuit City (2007-2009)” on my resume, and started earning double my wage for half the work.
Once I left that job and started a computer repair business out of my home, I started covering my friends resumes similarly. Pal needs a reference for a hotel job? Lemme tell ya, he’s been the head of my janitorial staff for three years, and I’m choked to see him go! Buddy needs a reference for an accounting job? Why, she’s an Excel wizard who’s been doing my books since day one!
The only thing HR ever notices is whether the business has a phone number, and maybe a logo and a website.
Was circuit city grift really a thing back in the day?
