A new RadioShack store JUST opened around the corner from me a few weeks ago. I assume it was a short term holiday season thing.



Typical big-company clumsiness. The store-opening expert didn't get the memo about a possible bankruptcy filing. Or if it did arrive, our go-getter decided that the best way to avoid getting fired was to be right in the middle of a project that couldn't be canceled.


I'm assuming that upper management wants things to be "business as usual" until the filing, otherwise the news would leak.


Bankruptcy doesn't necessarily mean close everything down. Perhaps that location is perceived as having a chance at profitability.
