me = Tower Employee #3795
I moonlighted at Tower for 10 years to support my vinyl then CD habit. While I find this very very sad, I have to admit, it's been a long time since I walked into a Tower and browsed the racks.
I feel most for the long time long term lower rung Tower employees, Russ Solomon the founder and the bigwigs in Sacramento bled Tower for years. I hope those lower rung management and staff have 401Ks and good options.
Tower was never noted for being overly generous, even after my 10th anniversary, the employee discounts were not close to what they once were. Salaries sucked and the benefits were not great.
But, the fond, fond memories, it was great fun.
