Silliest things you've heard from game store employees

Launch day of Uncharted 2, i'm the first customer in the shop, the employee behind the counter, a large stack on Uncharted 2 copies in front of him, apparently the shipment they had received but not yet put away.

Me: "Unchated 2 please"

Employee: "did you have it preordered?"

Me: "no"

Employee: "Oh my, you should have it preordered"

Me: "why?" pointing at the stack in front of him "are they all already sold"

Employee "no"

Me: "then i buy one of them now"

Empolyee: "well... ok, but next time preorder"

I get those all the time. Target didn't carry Demons Souls so I went to gamestop and got that. In my case however they always "need to check if they have any extra" and "lukily we got one for you."

As for the dumbest thing I heard, at Target I had a family asking the differences between Ps3 and 360. I told them that I would look at the exclusive games each has to offer and decide which ones best suit their needs. I showed them the games that you could only get on one or the other. I answered their questions honestly and the only question I really remember was if they could play online and I told them both had that function but you needed to pay a fee for the 360 unlike the Ps3. They didn't have anymore questions so I walked away. I never said which one they should or shouldn't get. 5 minutes later I see a co-worker talking to them. This co-worker was an older lady who had no clue about ANY electronics. She was just working back there to push the target card on people. What do I hear come out of her mouth "You should get the 360 because everyone is buying it." I wanted to say "that makes no fucking sense that you are pushing a system on a family because other people" they walked out with the 360.

Lol, they probably thought "the older the wiser"... NOT!
