So instead of looking through the hundreds of games on the shelves to find one in particular, he asks you if you have it first? What a terrible kid.

 

 pardon me, your modliness, i dont mean to say its just kids. most of them are adults who are just... well, stupid. it happens quite often where gamestop is treated like a burger king, and granted, there are some customers who realize we have a job to do and they cant be wasting our time when there are a shitload (pardon my cursing, your modliness) of people in the store.

you know, its not a problem at all when they are one of maybe two or three customers in the store, but when it gets crazy, and youre making me tend to every one of your trivial needs.. its just selfish.

youre right.. thats why i do it.. but i think youre missing the point, which is that its just plain selfish. other people need my attention as well. i cant be spending too much time finding some random ass game for somebody when there is a huge line.. if you were a customer waiting in line and i was looking for a game for one of these selfish assholes, youd probably be thinking im just a shitty ass worker and my job is to help you.

and some stupid ass kid comes up and asks you for some random ass ps2 game. god damn it, these customers who come up and act like its a fucking burger king annoy the shit out of me. theyll come up as soon as they walk in.. 'you got red dead revolver for the ps2?' so i check the fucking computer.. 'yea, we got it for 4.99' and then their typical dumb ass reply is.. 'k... ill take it'

Look here good Sir.

You are in that store for one reason and one reason only and that is to do service to all the customers who ask for your help when they want to effective. It is your job to keep things effective in order to help us gamers no matter how many people are in the store.

Steam and other download sites will eventually run videogame stores out of business. In the meantime the only thing that keep you guys afloat is how we feel when we walk out of that door. We gamers are a top priority.

Saying he is a stupid ass kid just because he ask if you have a product and then saying " 'k... ill take it', is just lame... >:/

lol i work at gamestop too, so i know exactly what he's talking about. yeah, it's our duty to help the customers no matter what. and we do, that's what we get paid for. the customer who treats us like a burger king and just walks up to place his order, yeah, we'll attend to his needs, but it's still annoying and selfish. if he wants to know if we have it before he wastes time looking for it, that's no big deal. but then just saying "k.. i'll take it" is just irritating. you have to realize that gamestop employees or any other retail employees are human beings too, not just your personal servants. the only reason you get away with treating us like that is because we want to get paid.

as for gamedays.. i honestly laughed when i saw it on the front page of vgchartz. seriously? is it that big of news? granted, there are some good deals on there, but the majority of it is just us trying to get shitty games nobody wants out of our inventory. and it is a complete bitch to work during that time. yesterday was the worst. we had the start of gamedays, the DSi launch and marketing all rolled into one. and i have to close tonight, yay! i gotta focus on selling edge cards and reservations because if i don't get good numbers, my hours get cut! :D
