I would want to work bet or mtv. I have alwayed wanted to be a music video director, but for some reason I don't think I will end up doing it. I basically just want to be around the starz!!  Having a job with bet or mtv open a lot of doors for oppotunities.

Sorry, love to help, but need more info.\n\nWho is misusing the company computers?  Your staff?  Your coworkers?  Is the company misusing their own computers? \n\nWhat way are the computers being "misused" - harassing people, identify theft, software piracy, etc.??

I used to work there, I quit in 2005.  I was in customer service and sales, a big call center.  I was hired in 1998 when they really needed people, I wouldn't think you would  need to know someone.I do know now they are At&t, they have employees all over the world, I was working in Northern California and some offices closed.

The best pay is no pay! don't pay for news group unless you have a need for a large amount of movies very fast and can't wait.  \n\nJust get a torrent client and use demonoid.com, isohunt.com, and piratebay.com, etc. to find the movies that you want and download them.\n\nHope this helps.

A Side-by-Side Comparison and Conclusion\n \nWhen comparing Netflix with Blockbuster Online, there are so many similarities that it may seem like a toss-up.  The giants of the online DVD rental explosion are feeding off each other's ideas, spawning lawsuits and smearing campaigns that rival the cola wars of the mid-1980's.\n \nBoth programs allow us to pay a monthly fee, for which we receive DVD movies sent through the mail.  When we return them in the postage paid envelopes, we receive more DVD's.  It's an ongoing cycle that fits almost perfectly with the current American need to get the most out of the least -- more movies for less money, less effort, and less time.\n \nSide by side, they are almost identical, but here is how they stack:\n \nSpeed of Delivery\nNetflix used to have the clear edge here, but expansion to include more distribution stores has brought Blockbuster up to par.  Still, for those who rent less, Netflix "ramps" the movies to these higher priority customers, pushing the heavier renters further down the list.  To this, they have admitted.  Blockbuster has not admitted to this practice, but their denials are not firm.  Still, Netflix will have a higher overall percentage of 1 day turns on movies than Blockbuster.\nEdge: Netflix\n \nCost\nThere is not a current difference in cost, though this seems to change every few months.  When one lowers, the other matches.  When one raises, the other follows.  It is similar to airlines manipulating the markets towards their own unintended dooms.  In the short run, Blockbuster offers a free month while Netflix offers 2-weeks.  Blockbuster also has a customer service crew that offers discounts and "mishap compensation" more easily.\nEdge: Blockbuster Online\n \nSelection\nNetflix is approaching 60,000, while Blockbuster is closing in on 55,000.\nEdge: Netflix\n \nWebsite\nFrom talking to many users, it seems that while the concepts of listing movies on a queue and searching for movies in several different ways is the same for both, Netflix has the superior overall layout and useability.  Its website seems smarter, though sometimes a bit slower during peak periods.\nEdge: Netflix\n \nFringe Benefits\nNetflix has none.  What you see is what you get.  The fact that Blockbuster offers a free in-store rental every week is extremely helpful in getting the newest releases.  With both programs, you sometimes have to wait weeks to get the hottest titles, even if it is at the top of your queue.  Being able to walk in and grab that week's best title is something that Netflix cannot touch.\nEdge: Blockbuster Online\n \nIntangibles\nNetflix has more experience with online DVD renting, both in regards to time and sheer mass of customers.  Blockbuster, as mentioned before, has superior and more responsive customer service.  Having a human being available at the local store to help during problems is a big benefit.  If there was a large enough gap in any of the above mentioned criteria, I would say that they supercede the intangibles.  In this case, there is no substantial difference.  The more human aspect of Blockbuster makes it the choice.\nEdge: Blockbuster Online\n \nWhen all is said and done, Blockbuster online seems to be the choice.  I would suggest doing like me – try both.  Just email me and I'll send you a promo code for a free month of either or both.\n\nfedexkinkos1@yahoo.com

Yes. As a recently former associate. The are screwing over all of their long term employees so they can get them to quit. They want to hire all part timers and pay them minimum wage. I used to back the company 100%. Not anymore.

From my personal experience of working there ,for 2 1/2 years from Jan. 1996- July 1998 and for 9 months from Sept 2004 to June 2005, I can tell you that they are very inconsiderate of their employees, they have horrible benefits, and the pay is terrible. To be honest, I have found from working there for so long ,and "being on the inside" and knowing how the compnay really is, I have learned that they don't care about anything other than their precious money. I worked there while Sam Walton was still alive and the company didn't quite seem like they just cared about the money. It seemed more like they cared about the people working there, but now that Sam Walton is no longer here the company has gotten big headed and greedy. It seems like they'll do everything they possibly can to make a $1. All I can say is that if Sam Walton knew what his company has become he'd roll over in his grave and that's the honest truth.

Yes, you should.  They are a good company to work for from what I understand.  I have a few friends who work at one of their operating centers and they've been treated quite well by the company.  \n\nAnd for the record, I just like porn.  What's wrong with that?  =)

Well, I used to work for Blockbuster. They have a computer system that prospects enter their information. Some more would be JCPenny, Belk, any department stores. You could also look at major companies like Coca Cola or Pepsi or Wrigleys. The list goes on.. just contact me for more business names.

Never seen a motivated blockbuster employee, so I guess they just don't
