>hightail it out of there

How the fuck do these normans with shit taste get jobs at places like this. It's literally so fucking cringeworthy.

This is the reason I haven't left my apartment for 8 years.

they arent hired bcause of their love of games, only their potential to make sales.

>going to a gamestop
>2016

there is this invention called amazon you fucking autistic faggot

>I locked myself in a room like a fucking prisoner for literal years because people working at gamestop have different tastes than me

No one gives a rats ass whatever obscure bullshit you play fucking nerd

Arent you a special snowflake?
Yes you win youre better than anyone hurray!!!!

Now what? Tell me i want to know

You ever considered that his vidya interests just differed from yours, you turbosperg?

They need to push preorders to meet a sales quota.

>Work at Gamestop.
>Customers come in asking about game.
>Its shit.
>Customer dosent buy it.
>Manager starts growing suspicious.
>Asks me why I am not selling subscriptions or preorders.
>Cause the customers dont need fucked any harder then what they are with the video game prices now.
>Just stares at me.
>Threatens to fire me.
>Ya but you cant, profits have been up since you hired me because I suggest good games over shitty ones that they plan to return in 2 weeks time anyway.
>Or would you rather have 500 used copies of FIFA2016?

This. It's why they only have Chads and cute, "awkward" girls work there. Just buy your games on Amazon.

This. Just as most games aren't made to be fun, they just add whatever that will make the normies buy it.

>he plays anime games
L o s e r

Pretty much this.
>Go to gamestop to preorder Dark Souls.
>Fat bitch wont let me because "preorders are over"
>It comes out two months later.
>Go to buy it.
>DID YOU HAVE A PREORDER?
No.
>Sorry.
Are those copies on the counter there preorder?
>No sir
Then why wont you sale me one of those?
>Because those are for preorders only, maybe next time you should preorder.
But those belong to nobody, those are copies to be sold here in the store.
>Sir I am going to have to ask you to leave if you keep causing a scene, its just a stupid game anyway.

>Go home.
>Ask game journalist friend for fucking phone numbers to higher ups.
>Call them and voice complaint.
>Turns out the bitch has been stealing preorder money and pocketing it.
>The extras in store where preorders that never got picked up because she claimed nobody ordered them.
>Get a free copy of ME3, Dark Souls, and $200 in gift cards.

Gamestop is a hive of shit, just buy your games on Amazon.
>Amazon Prime knocks off money for preordering games.
$39 game costs $34 if preordered, shipping is free.
>Comes to you the day it releases in the fucking mail.

I'VE HAD IT


THIS IS ENOUGH


YOU FUCKING NORMIES NEED TO LEAVE THIS BOARD


RIGHT THE FUCK - - - N - - - O - - - W - - -

>final fantasy
>obscure bullshit

>Someone Disagrees with you.
>"NORMIES REEEEEEEE!"

Topkek.

user is actually right. Just take a look at this animu shitu.

>go to work at my shitty fast food job today
>make order
>hand it out the window
>tell the customer "sorry for the wait!" since he waited due to the fact that I was the only one making food and handing it out
>after I say that the customer says "was that a fat joke?" while smiling at me
>we both laugh heartily

working at white castle is a shit job but at least my co-workers are great and there's hardly ever rude customers due to them being sweet old people

>go to gamestop to buy kof xiii and soul calibur V
>months after release but get a hook up with the 4 disk soundtrack that was suppose to be pre order bonus
>guy seemed kinda cool so I asked him about xenoblade chronicles that releases in a week
>tells me the game looks great but make sure to buy it early as games that have released exclusive by GameStop have been hard to come by and usually increase in price
>doesn't force a preorder on me for it or anything
Turned out to be a pretty good purchase and certainly did end up being hard to come by.

I used to work in a game store and let me tell you, your kind of asshats with special snowlfake syndrome were the worst thing about the job.
We used to joke about you guys ALOT after you left the store.

Sup Forums is a normie board. You can't fight them here.

What compels people like you to just go onto the internet and... Lie?

I guess its only fair, since we do the same to you mongoloids behind the counter.

With who?
You autistic faggots don't even have any friends.

>idiotic assumptions

You believe whatever you want, wagieeeee

haha you got em man

>Observation is now assuming.
ok...

>Go to Gamestop
>It's near work and school so I'm usually in there once or twice every couple weeks
>Guys working there know me by name
>Don't act like a fucking sperg
>Have normal conversations with them
>Ended up adding some of them to various friends lists of various video game consoles/steam
>Usually whenever I drop in I shoot the shit with them
>Sometimes they stash shit away for me if they know I was gonna get something but never managed to pre-order it
>If they have extra codes or dumb physical shit they'll toss some of it my way
>Always rate them high on their Gamestop survey shit, one of them actually got promoted for it
>Went in to go put some money down on Nioh and to see if I could pre-order the Berserk musou last night
>The two guys usually working there had no idea what Nioh was
>"Dark Souls, but with Samurai"
>oh fug sounds cool thanks user
>The resident GUUUURL GAMURR working there is actually fun to talk to and isn't a total "ummm I love Zelda AND Playstation I'm so different XD" bitch
>When Xenoblade X came out we were both shitting our pants over how fucking cool it was Shulk was in Smash
>When I started playing FF14 she joined the same world as me to help me learn how to play since I had never touched an MMO before

f-f-f-f-fucking gamestop

>doesnt know he's being uses
>thinks its genuine friendliness

Autism honestly

Your fedora is showing

>Having people to go get beer and wings with every Saturday night is being used

You should try going outside more

>walk into gamestop
>REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>walk out

FUCKING BURGERSTOP!!!!!

>Pre-Order

My advise is never pre-order a game or buy it when the prize is very loud and we have the lastest update with all the things fixed.
Can you wait for one year?
Only sheeps wait for pre-order.

>Go to gamestop to retire my preorder of diablo 3 collector edition.
>"Uh sorry we ordered you the normal one".
>Punch right in the face.

Fucking idiot i had double checked at the time.

MOTHERFUCKING BURGERSTOP, SHIT

>Sweet old people

At carls jr you get 76 year old manchildren that make a scene, without shame, over 75 cents

>be me at Gamestop
Who are you when you're not at Gamestop?

>Girl talks about video games with someone
>She is using them

i am genuinely interested how in the ever living hell you would navigate yourself to a conclusion like that

>spend a few minutes arguing with this normalfag
>normalfag
>because he's recommending a point and click adventure series that started in the 80s
You're not very smart, are you?

>Punch right in the face.
...and then you woke up :^)

No im italian, in my country is usual. They dont even call police for a brawl in tavern, condos, pubs ecc... we are not amerifags who cant even hit a woman or a child when they deserve it.
I punched the guy, payed the game minus the 20yuro of the preorder. I still sometimes buy old shit like ps3 games from them.

You're a cool guy.

>go to sex shop to buy vibrator for my wife's birthday
>pick up 7 inch ribbed silicon model
>ask girl at counter if this would fit her vagina because she is the same size as my wife
>girl gets angry and throws me out


this is why I let my wife fuck black guys when I am at work

Cool blog.

hey guys just popping in to see if anyone liked my post. my post is this one right here

hey guys, it's me again. just popping back in to see if anyone like my post about checking to see if anyone liked my poast. my poast is this one right hereand is in regard to this one right hereI'll be back later to see how you all liked this one right here

must have been a nigger

just wanted to let you guys know that the post I was talking about in was I was unable to link to it because I hadn't posted it yet. While I'm here I might as well ask what you guys think of this post too. I am unable to provide a link to this post as I am in the middle of it, but I will be sure to provide a link in a successive post.

...

All of that sounds like utter bullshit.

>How the fuck do these normans with shit taste get jobs at places like this.
Because people who actually know about games know not to work at places like Gamestop.

never let niggers fuck your wife

I asked my manager at mcdonalds yesterday to raise my wage to minimum wage after 6 months of working for 4 dollars an hour but he said I can easily be replaced. How do i make minimum wage?

that's racist

Forcefully usurp his role with corruption

you forgot the last point

>normalfag goes home and has sex with his gf

Is there an open door policy in this bait?

>work at Gamestop
>Autist would come in every other day to pre-order games from the chicks that worked there only to cancel them the next day on the dudes
>One day asks for chick's number (she was married)
>gives it to him thinking nothing of it
>he says "mmnneeehhueehohoho im gonna give you a hug"
>walks behind the counter and fucking grab/hugs her
>WHAT THE FUCK GET THE FUCK OFF OF ME YOU FUCKING CREEP
>he fast walks out of the store saying nothing
>never comes back

I don't wanna quit because I'm getting good hours (30-40 hours a week) but I'd make so much more if I got minimum

holy shit!

See, these are the GS stories I want to read about!

>Pre-order
>anime game for angsty teenage weebs
>gamestop

I've worked a bunch of wage slave jobs and the only things that stay the same is the low pay and soul-dead people working there complaining and making fun of people behind their backs. I can see why they'd to it, acting like the customers are retarded children helps them cope with working the job.

There was a new guy and he was one of those sheltered rich kids because his parents drove him to work in nice cars and he always dressed like he was about to go on a date. He was very nice though. Didn't stop nearly everybody from spewing poison to each other behind his back about Fucking rich kids reeeeee etc.

I became friends with him and a few weeks later he came to me saying that everyone was talking shut about me behind my back when I thought I had gotten along well enough with them. I even went out drinking with some. Turns out it was true too, because I left my shift once and came back at one job since I left my stuff there by accident. They were openly talking about how annoying I was.

Anyways, the point is that you can't trust if people really like you when it comes to customer-worker relations and even worker-worker relations. There might be unicorn utopia workplaces thar are different but this has been my general experience.

Just be glad he knows what kings quest is.

Doesnt work like that idiot 500 used copies of FIFA2016 is 500 Sales plus 500 Purchases WELL Below their market value.

Face it You are nothing but a liability and you deserve to get fired. Your autistic mental gymnastics cant save you this time

They tried to get me to clean up piss another time as well.

Gamestop still has pretty good used game deals. Just bought DaS3 for ~30$ today actually.

What the fuck are you doing mate? I stopped interacting with game retail store clerks 7 years ago. Thanks to digital distribution n every platofrm there is literally NO REASON to EVER deal with this disgusting normie fuckwits evera gain.

Heres some fucking EB games bullshit.

Drink bleach and die

My mall has 2 Gamestops. Why, I dunno, but it's probably because the 1st floor one used to be an EBX or whatever & they rebranded.
nd Floor Gamestop:
>manager is a landwhale cunt who regularly fights with customers
>shows up for shift one day of the week in the noon
>regular guys there all look like Chads
>are actually knowledged in what games are coming out, even the weeb ones
>half of them go to my community college, major in engineering and computer science, & have recommended me sites for used college books on the cheap
st Floor Gamestop:
>manager is a full nu male, complete with plaid shirt, thick-framed non-perscription glasses, and a full black-ass beard
>always talks in a very smug tone and asks everyone for ID with mature games if they're under a certain height
>regular guys & girls there are all stoners
>they recommend me the best albums to chill to in the CD store down the Macy's way
>got me into REO Speedwagon and Steely Dan
>one of them's a hyper-weeb who lets me know about the obscure JRPGs to get into
What I've learned is that all managers are cancer and regular staff aren't actually that bad.

>someone tries to strike up conversation about a game
>they're not going to care and that anything I say will be met with fake agreement and pleasantness

fixed. This is how normies work. They only care about themselves and rarely put enough attention to what you are saying to feel either way about it.

That's the joke. Ayup.
Pat on the back for you good sir.

king's quest is much more obscure than final fantasy

my math teacher used to play king's quest. that was pretty cool.

>Go to Gamestop on July 4th some time ago

The fuck was that about? At least the guy doesn't work there anymore.

king of prussia?

Geez with that long a post, I would think you're annoying too.

>Profits have been up because I suggest good games

You don't work at Gamestop, user.
Good job though.

Man, I wonder how good gamestop felt once the xbone no used games policy got reversed

Yes, people definitely buy used copies of sports games.
