Tell me about it. The Monday a couple of weeks ago when they started yelling PANICCCCCCC, our jewelry sales tanked. Slowly recovering but still taking a killing. Assholes spreading doom and gloom predictions do not help the situation.

I'm not asking that they lie to us, but put more reality and less sensationalism into it and it might be able to be worked through.

Instead they come out on Monday and tell us that we are in breadlines Tuesday unless.........

Fucking assholes, you gotta wonder what the agenda actually is.
