Associate Orientation VHS (Part 1) ©2000
The last employee orientation video by Ames Corporate Media, produced before the GOB was announced. It explains Ames history, market strategies, and just about anything else an associate would want to know.

Funny.. people were prob bored watching this being new hires.. and yet here I am watching this while sitting in my basement office.. lol
Having a laptop in your mom's basement doesn't make it an "office" lol
❤️
The Ames I went to in the mid 80s had a restaurant in it. I miss the 80s.
1:21 "The name Ames remained over the entrance"
Including that same old store.
The opportunities in the 21st century turned out to be limited to the first few years.
619 days to be exact
Bankruptcy is an opportunity.
That’s what happens when places are horribly outdated with their service product. Sears is facing a similar fate.
Ames was my first job when I was 16 in 1995. I remember watching this video my first day.
What fucking wormhole did I just fall into.... 😳 I miss these days.. turning 37....
You're not alone, my mother used to work here
Enjoy it. I can't believe I just turned 50! Where does the time go?
SO glad this exists
If you think about it, the store fell into the discount bin after 2000.
Makes me wanna go work there !! Miss this store
Does not make you want to start a business... knowing you can go under anytime... Even if you know what you're doing. It mostly comes down to your reputation... If people talk bad about you, you ain't gonna last long. (Not saying this is what happened to Ames tho..)
Never heard of this store
it doesn't exist anymore
The chain went out of business back in 2002, quite long ago.
Pittsburgh loved this store
I wish Ames and Hills where still around.
6:00 the worker was like "o no I'm on camera"
Great Video! I Recently came across Ames from Chuck E. Cheese's in Essex/Baltimore, MD. I Recently Visited the Corporate Offices in Rocky Hill and Plan to Release Video of the Vacant Ames (And one Bradlees) Locations in CT. This shows when the company was still active and It's cool.
0:45 Sam Walton plotting on ending this man's whole career lmao
Haha
🤣🤣🤣
He was dead in 1992
but your comment was still funny!
1:27 There’s a video of this exact location!
What category is food in?!
So Ames is the Kmart of the north east?
Kmart was #1 in the Northeast in the 80s & 90s, Ames was definitely a notch below Kmart in its prime, but it was the largest non-national retailer in the country. New England had Kmart stores since the mid 70s
I miss Ames Thank you Walmart I hate you Walmart
I miss ames I used to shop there all the time
I miss Ames
Bring back Ames!
I know I went to Ames in late 80s and early 90s, but I don't recognize it.
cool video i use to love to shop there
6:05 "Gonna take your hand/arm off with my handshake young buckaroo, I'll see you at Old Country Buffet at 6PM"...anyways he looked very uncomfortable.
@ 2:48 "One key to our success is knowing who our customers are..." so visually unappealing.
Always Loved Ames Hills Stores was a Big Mistake to them.
Lol and 2 years later bang goodbye ames
25,000-35,000 was good than wasn't it ?
It was average, though it was a livable wage if you could budget well.
37 - 52k in 2018 dollars.
These average income numbers. My god what did boomers do to us
Southbridge Mass!!!
I wish Ames was still around. That and Hills, was there Hills department stores in Massachusetts?
@@ChiefDad117 yes
I believe hills was founded in Massachusetts but I'm gonna have to look it up
I remember when I was a kid I use to go there and steal spiderman toys until I got caught ha ha the good o'l days
DROP THE TOY YOU LITTLE SHIT!!!!!!!
One of the worst companies to work for. Just horrible
All those Stores are. Profits for the greedy wealthy. Minimum wage for employees.
Why was it horrible?
Maybe that’s a reason for their demise.
