Looks like you may have done better than you thought, Andy.
WHAT BORDERS EMPLOYEES THINK OF YOU

Wow. The irrepressible Lucianne.com has a link to an "Unfit for Command" comment board run by the Borders Books Employee Union, whose members kvetch and moan about the "rabid" people coming in to buy the book. Here's a choice post:
You guys don't actually HAVE to sell the thing!
Just "carelessly" hide the boxes, "accidentally" drop them off pallets, "forget" to stock the ones you have, and then suggest a nice Al Franken or Micheal Moore book as a substitute. Borders wants those recommends, remember?
I don't care if these Neandertals (sic) in fancy suits get mad at me, they aren't regular customers anyway. Other than "Left Behind" books, they don't read. Anything you can do to make them feel unwelcome is only fair. They are the people pushing retailers to cut costs, don't forget. And they would censor your speech, your books, your music in a heartbeat, so give them a taste of it!
Don't get mad, get even!
Go check out the whole thing.
Thanks to Lucianne for calling it to our attention. Now, time to act!
