Last Day
Well today ends my employment with bbv- 12 long years. I feel a tinge of sadness because I will miss my co-workers. Any loyal/favorite customers stopped coming in weeks ago so no sadness there. I do however have to ADMIT I will not miss the stupid ignorant people coming in the store. They act like it's a garage sale trying to offer whatever price they want and since we lowered the price of every prp dvd/bluray and online mailer to $1= they are even dumber. We had signs up clearly stating the discounts on games and new retail but we still had idiots thinking everything was $1. One lady even tried to argue with me that because the new retail was "in the wrong place" it should be $1. It's 70% off-did she want 100% off? We then made huge signs saying this is not $1. Did this help? Of course not. BTW, if you are buying 2 stack loads of prp and scrutinizing the back of every disc HARD and asking for my opinion of playability and if I've seen this movie giving no thought or concern to the 5 people in line behind you and I'm the only one on register-todays answer will be "It's a fucking $1-take it or leave it."

Gotta love idiots. I had a guy whining the other week saying "The sign on the window says $1.99 final price after all discounts, so why is it $2.06?" I replied "Tax isn't a discount." Funny how he never complained any of the other times he had bought stuff during previous visits. It's also funny to hear people enlighten us as to why BB is closing stores. "Yea man, them there Redboxes done put y'all outta business huh?" Usually the same people that look at ya like you're speaking Japanese when you ask them if they have a BD player. Glad I don't have to explain Dish to these yahoos lol

Stupid Everywhere!
This is the problem I have had with jobs, I just can't get away from stupidity. When I worked for a call center that handled Keurig coffee maker problems, I heard the following (Keep in mind, this is a $100 coffee maker):
So, I left there and went to a convenience store.
I brought up my boss because this stupid bitch decided to try and set me up with her friends. I asked her not to politely, then when she kept doing it, I reported her to her supervisor. She finally stopped, but then we were both transferred to another store. Once there, she started in again, and the supervisor was replaced by someone who liked her and wouldn't believe me, even though it was in her write-up record. (Plus, the guys she tried to set me up with I wouldn't date on a bet. ) So, I start a new job tomorrow. *sigh* It's sad that I am actually on this board, thinking about the good old days!

It was devastating that the stores closed and I thought that was bad enough!
It was a horrible ending. I don't think it's a good idea to stay to the bitter end!! It's not worth it! People acted like animals and did not care!! After the closing it got worse for me, and I did not expect that even after 6 months those "loyal" customers I built "rapport" with would still be upset the store closed!! It is sad that former customers see me and start crying!! On a daily basis I see at least one customer and they realize I am standing there and say things like-- "Thank goodness YOU are here...I need help." It seems I did at least some good working for a company I did not think cared for me!! I try not to concentrate on still consoling customers. I do try to concentrate on the little children who will never remember what blockbuster was!! These little angles run around looking for me in the store I currently work in! Some go to anyone in the store and ask for me. The staff bring these wonderful little ones right to me! It does brighten my day, and it slowly erases the hell that was LIQUIDATION!! I call them my BB babies!! Thank goodness for the BB babies!!! Life does go on |
