Recap

I survived. I skydived. I kissed a dolphin. Got a pretty good tan. And I learned how to boogie board. I live near a beach, never going, and I've NEVER known how to boogie board. I always wondered. Now I want to do it again. But nobody to want to go to the beach.

I know when I drive I will drive to the beach at night, probably by myself. On a full moon. And sit on the bench thing that I injured my arms pretty bad on a year and a half ago. Maybe stay til Sun up. Who knows.

Life of the Angry Employee

How about everyone get a life, quit trying to find the Wii (minus a the ones I know, because they're not included in this tirade. This crazyness. Getting pissed because they can't get a hold of one). Save the money, put it aside. Put it on a giftcard, knowing you can't get a refund, because you know that money will go towards a Wii. It's called life. Play frisbee outside. Go to the mall to laugh at the 10-12 year olds in skimpy outfits you could only call clothes in movies.

And you people who spent the money on a PS3, don't expect everyone else to know every single thing about it. Don't go calling saying "I want to talk to someone who knows alot about a PS3" because chances are, we won't know jack. Who's going to spend well over $600 for a system that doesn't even have 20 games out on the shelf. It's only known for one game, RESISTANCE. 07 the life sucked. Madden is the same on every system. Fight Night's graphics weren't even that great people said. The sweat beads looked like sunglares on the person's skin. That's normal? That's high def? Maybe talking to a computer will help you out. Maybe take out some of that hidden frustration on the automated voice, before you talk to a real operator. Guess what? You don't want to talk to a computer, everything these days HAS a voice automated system. Your waterbill company is a computer. Your electricity bill. Your cell phone bill. 0 is the magic button you get for someone who doesn't want to speak to you.

Your discount card isn't a magic credit card. If I don't swipe the card, it doesn't have anything on it. Barcodes don't register money magically on a magnetic strip. A $20 game isn't 16.66 after tax. It's $21.64.

We don't clean every game we get in. We'd be spending over $100 each month on cleaning supplies, which we don't have the room for. And our DM would whine and moan about the money spent. We don't test games out for you. We don't test every game we get in. If the game looks like shit, we charge a refurb fee, and send it off to the magical fairies who sprinkle their fairy dust on the discs. If it smells like dog piss, you think we can sell it to another customer? Is it even sanitary? It's not "cute" your dog Buddy got "angry" and peed on a few games. It's called WIPES. If you want cash on DVDs go sell them on Leopard street. I'm sure people there would have ones to be able to pay for the DVDs and you'd get more than what we'd give you for your crappy 6 year old movies.

Hello dear old friend

I've neglected blogger

But...yeah Myspace took over

Oh and working a bit more. Still at Gamestop. Lost my interest in games for a while. Seems the only game that can keep me hooked for hours on end is Puzzle Quest. And if you haven't heard of it, and have a DS, I would SERIOUSLY recommend it. It's an addiction.
