Finally, some good news today! And by good news I mean watching Dov Charney's company take a turn for the dump. American Apparel has announced it's cutting hundreds of jobs, despite posting the strongest sales in retail versus its competitors. The company is reducing its expansion plans, hence the layoffs. This, just after its opening TONS of stores across America. What a fucking bum! All the cuts come on the heels of many, many, lawsuits against Charney for subjecting employees to sexual harassment but also some rather odd ones involving scam e-mails, potential blackmail (against Charney), and other craziness. It's amazing that Dov blames the economy when its is him and his penchant for ending up in court that's causing the company to cut back. I feel sorry for the ones who lost their jobs. One of my good friends lost their job in the midst of all this crap. To the hundreds of unemployed hot hipster babes, I say best of luck.
