Okay, the Best Buy reference on Judge’s resume probably won;t be his biggest selling point.
Could be worse. Could be Blockbuster. Or Virgin Superstores. Borders. Or (gasp!) the US Postal Service...
As for Best Buy ... it apparently is not a case of people being asleep at the wheel. There’s nobody at the wheel!
