Is Coldwater Creek's Management Blind or Savvy?

I am a (very) recent ex-employee, and I can tell you that this company is going to hell in a hand-basket. I think the bankruptcy by 2010 is right on, although somewhat optimistic - 2009 would be more likely. Not only is Georgia totally out of touch, but the rest of the hierarchy including store management is clearly not equipped to handle the current economic situation. Things were already slow back before the holidays, yet my store manager and her ass(t)s. decided that the best strategy was to keep almost all seasonal employees on permanently, which did nothing but make us "regular" employees feel like absolute garbage and create a great deal of tension and feeling of animosity. They also cut our hours down to sometimes 4, most times 0 per week, even as we were being told that we would be given priority over the newbies. Good riddance to them all, they deserve everything they have coming to them.
