Rumor: Best Buy Shits on Employees, Forbids PS3 Purchases

Just in wake of those EB Games shenanigans comes this rumor from our lovers over at Kotaku. Their insider says:

...the memo we received stated that employee (PS3) purchases 'should not be allowed.' According to another store manager, 'Employees are completely locked out of buying a console.' ... Apparentlly, this decision came about so that 'more consoles would be available to our customers.' No word, as of yet, as to how long the lockout is supposed to last.
Sucks to work in consumer electronic retail. Any Best Buy employees out there that can shed some light on this rumor? Are BB employees really fucked? Image via Improveverywhere
