Moments of Fail

[Woodstock]

I had a manager come in and went into the back (needing my keys) to check the latest pre streets. He gets his movies, I check him out, and he leaves. About four hours later, I realize that he had taken my keys with him!! Epic fail on both of us!

Had that happen with a DM, luckily it was about shift change time and didn't get my keys back for 2 days.

We had a guy who had just become an SL. I can't remember which game it was, but it was right around the time of one of the bigger game releases. Our box with the games comes in, and he totally gaps out about what the release date is and sells 6 or 7 copies pre-street date.
When he finally realized, he looked like he wanted to crawl under a rock and hide.

Sounds like lack of communication to me

Not really, he knew exactly what the score was. More likely he was just stressing from running a shift by himself for the first time and had one of those moments where your brain locks up and forgets really obvious things.

I just spent an hour attempting to unlock the office door, by bashing it, yanking on it, messing with the hinges, to find my keys I locked inside...Only to find them sitting on the game drawers right up front when I gave up and was going to call the SM.

I wanted to cry.

I once answered the phone, but did not pick up the reciever. I just stood their saying Hello, thank you for calling BBV like a damn idiot, with the phone still ringing.

I WIN.

At my old store, I had co-workers that would call a 1-800 sex line. They would then tell me the phone call was for me...

Most awkward phone call.
