Did anyone on here ever work at the Erol's video headquarters over in Springfield?

How long did you work there?
Where was it at?
Was working there fun?
Are the any pictures of the place online anywhere?

Worked for a year internet tech support in '97. It was in the back of the industrial area on Port Royal Rd. Fun? Not really, but the hours were awesome since I could work around classes at GMU. Signing up to go for a bathroom break seemed silly, but understandable since it was a call center environment.

Hey thanks for the response I was actually looking for responses from the videotape era but you help shed some light as to what was going on after the video business was sold to Blockbuster and thats cool too.

The address where Erol's video headquarters was is 6621 Electronic Drive.

The space sat empty for years until Verio leased it for a datacenter.

That must have been where they cut up the movie boxes and placed them in the red packaging. I remember seeing the red and yellow Erol's logo on the side of the building when driving passed it on I-95.
