Dillard's lays off minorities by the hundreds today.
Today I received notification that hundreds of Travel Agency employees will be laid off immediately. The leisure travel department, for use by Dillard's customers is closing because of being an "under functioning department", Randy Hankins, VP of Dillard's told me. He spoke to me as if I were a gnat, and gave rude, canned responses. He was totally uncaring that most Travel agents are minorities, mainly women. One woman I spoke to, told me she had been employed there 20 years, was a single mom and had no idea what she was going to do. We all know good paying jobs are easy to find when you're over 50. Yeah. Mr VP said that employees had a choice of moving to lower paying jobs on the sales floor. GREAT! So if you give a damn, cut up your Dillard's card and send them to the Dillard's brothers. But don't try to call them, we don't rate high enough to speak to them, but we can sure pay their salaries, can't we? Say BAAAAH little sheep.
