vice president eh?
 

i am sure a good amount of you know of a god amonsts ants of a store known as EB games, or the electronics bouttique (sp*?) right? well a family friend has the choice to be the vice president of it. he can either be the vice for :

eb games
hot topic
land's end
david's bridal


i said do eb games, because unlike hot topic video games aren't a fad and will never go out of fashion. yea. he said if he got the job at eb games, ill get a huge discount on the psp. so im all for the eb games. what about you guys?

David's Bridal.

I say EB games, even though there prices blow.

tell him davids bridal might be more fullfilling.

vice president of the entire chain?

lol but think about it.. people are marrying, divorcing, and re-marrying all the time...so people are always needing bridal stuff

i only ever heard of EB and David's Bridal.

yeah me too.

Hot topic is some fucking alternative teen clothing store...alot of blacks and emo goth people.

^ he can get stuff for cheap then.

holy shit, i just actually read you post and realized he can be vice president of lands end? Lands end is a HUGE clothing company. I think its based in colorado. If he wants to make money, that's probably the place to go. They are extremly successful

Also, can you explain why he gets to be vice president of any of these companies he chooses? Are they all owned by the same person?

Hot topic, for all your prepackaged gothic needs mwah:

Just because you work for EB Games doesnt mean you get to play videogames for a living..

...stupid as it seems, I'd say Hot Topic. The goth trend is getting more and more popular, and theres tons of pepperoni-faced teens ready to accept Satan, black clothing, nose-rings, and Slipknot in order to make friends. You'll get more business there, that stores always stuffed.

haha. yeah take duffys advice. get into a business that deals with teenage fads because thats the most secure and stable field to get into oOo: oOo: oOo: oOo: oOo: oOo: oOo: oOo: oOo: oOo:
sarcasm if you cant tell

plzdie:

i would say davids bridal or lands end. EB is just another store that sells games, they make their money mostly on reselling used stuff. hot topic has been around, but the whole goth trend could run out. but on the other hand, it could be a good place for him to make his mark in the fashion retail industry, if thats something he likes. nice selection of options he has here.

methinks Harpua is fucking about.

wel to answer any doubts, he just quit from a big over seas bussiness and is looking for a job. he decided to put in applications into each of those companies to be vice president, vice ceo whatever. now, he asked me to help him out with an outside opinion, i said EB games. he may go to davids bridal ( loney: ) but he is really looking at EB. but the reason he can choose is because a: he is very qualified for any of them. and b: he knows the ceos.

Id say davids bridal, better chance of gettin laid. Sounds like he already has the money. biggrin:

tell him to give me money

I'm going with Land's End. It's already gaining more popularity with men aged 30+, and if he were to become Vice President, he has a great opportunity to escalate the company and compete with the likes of Ralph Lauren.

I would go with David's Bridal, because wedding dresses are expensive and I have actually heard of that store. wallbash:

EB GAMES- Crap video game store with kids toys

hot topic- gothic/punk clothes store

land's end- Shoe store

david's bridal - self explanitory

chip'n'dale male entertainment services- where i work

HOT TOPIC GET ALL THE SHIRT DISCOUNTS I WOULD WORK THERE! rock:

who would be happy about gothic and punk attire?

goths or posers/punk rockers?

I had no idea what this Hot Topic shit was until i saw it on Simple Life 3 last night.

Well I just did some research, and both EB and Land's End came in at a tie in the 2004 fiscal year, raking in about 1.6 billion in profits. Hot topic brought in about 570 million, and David's Bridal took in about 524 million.

And to put those numbers into perspective, the lowest of Fortune 500 companies bring in about 3.2 billion per year, and the highest (Wal-Mart, Exxon Mobil Corp) at 250 billion.

Revenue is not the same as profit. EB did $52M profit in FY04.
