Why should they know about something they aren't interested in? They just sell/trade the games and he did say that wii games aren't selling that much in their store. I bet there are a lot of employees at various retailers who don't know much about the products they are selling.

They should know because they are in the business of video games and if they were on top of their "game," then they would know the industry leader (Nintendo Wii) inside and out.

The whole "Wii games don't sell much at our store" is a cop-out and a fairly juvenile excuse at that. This is equivalent to a cop not knowing certain aspects of criminal law because he rarely arrests people for that crime.

My opinion on the employee, he better not be saying this stuff when his manager is around. Otherwise, expect to get chewed out publicly and then get sent home early with homework to get to know the Wii, its best sellers, and its shovelware or you get fired if I as the manager see this type of exchange again.

Only monopolistic companies have employees so bad as for them to not know about the latest product from the industry leader and industry creator in video games. Either that, or the human resources for GameStop is full of a bunch of know nothings who hire based on nepotism.

Haha. A cop has to know his stuff but a sales clerk does not. Do you think that a guy at your local video store knows the movies and the industry "inside and out"?

Oh and he has to be lying if some games do not sell at his store. Come on.
