(I think you mentioned one of your bosses being incapable of keeping his cool for more than two minutes....well, that was my boss) When he made fun of my last name and threw a feather duster at my head, I decided to throw in the towel. Which is sad. I love gamestop, and I love flaunting my geek chic knowledge of video games. Someone mentioned earlier that this would be a good piece for the New Yorker. Actually, if you did some research....maybe interviewed other employees and managers at other small retail stores around the country...you could have a really good in-depth report article on the state of low level management in huge retail chains across the country. Hell, I smell a book deal here. Or maybe even a documentary movie. Hey,

I also had a crappy experience with a shitty Gamestop manager, because she was a worthless whore who didn't like me out sub and reserving her. I guess that stuff happens when you have crappy GM's like Barry was, and on a side note why the hell hasn't Ken been fired from there if everybody else was? Wick, I miss our time together buddy.
