okay....rant time. I've been working at this hell hole known as blockbuster video for 2 1/2 years. I got all kinds of stupid questions each day. I just bottle them up because i can understand that some people are ignorant, but today i almost flipped out on a customer. Holy ****...this guy is a regular too. this gay *** movie called monster came out yesterday. we have 200+ copies to rent of it. On the wall it is represented with 9 rows of 10 boxes. So there are 90 cover boxes on the wall stating this title. it takes up a whole section of the wall. This ******* douche bag walks back there and can't fuckign find it. he comes up to the register and asks if we have it. I respond...yes we have 150+ copies still ON THE WALL!. He still can't find it...and i'm forced to walk out there and show him we the 90 coverboxes are. I would understand if there were only 2 coverboxes on the wall cause **** tends to blend in...but come on....
end rant....sorry
end rant....sorry

Yup, why it sucks to work retail.
Dont feel bad Brandon, I dealt with people at wal-mart. Old people, young people,black people, and white people. A bunch of ignorant people I tell ya. Granted, sometimes I go into stores and look for something. But that is the thing, I LOOK for it first, then ask where it is if I can't find it. Bunch of morons.
Prime Example...
Old Lady: Excuse me is this the electronics deparment.
Me:Yes Ma'am. You are standing in it.
Oh my ****** christ. There are ******* TV's, Stereos,Movies,and Video Games. No, this is my happy little ******* place where I make **** pay and have crappy hours. Would you like to trade me jobs? I can be lazy and retired and not do jack **** all day long.
[end rant]
Brandon, are you a manager there? Or just a low level assosciate?
