Tons of stories about people asking dumb questions when I worked at EB, but my favourite was a 40 year old mom coming in 'looking for PCP for my son'. Her husband was with her and you could see he was embarassed. He was shaking his head, trying to correct her.

lol, when I worked at GameStop a lady came in and asked for a PCP. I just lolled to myself and showed her the PSP, then I showed her a DS and told her about that so she would know that better handhelds do, in fact, exist. I showed her all the cool features on it, and the wide variety of games both new and used. I also told her it doesn't cost as much. She was much more interested in the DS, so I sold her that. lol.

Your stories about your escapades at Gamestop are one of the quiet horrors of my evenings. When I am given pause and made to reflect upon the influence that one person with an agenda can have in terms of the experiences afforded to other people, my blood runs cold.
