    Archived Dumb questions from Guests......really..... you have to ask?

    Guys. It finally happened. After six months of working in retail, someone finally asked me, "Do you guys make [x]?" about an electronics item. No, we don't make anything, you fucking moron.

    I've tuned out the amiibo display (and I actually like the Gusty Garden Galaxy theme so it gives me something to listen to while working), but the Skylanders Trap Team display drove me and everyone else nuts because it was motion-activated. Shit you not, I came in one day to find out someone...

    Archived Funny conversations

    One night after closing during ad takedown, a team member kept trying to ask my LoD a question and every time, he interrupted her with loud "balalalalala" tongue noises. This same LoD also kept calling me the wrong name on accident cuz he was used to someone else doing the shift I was working...

    Working in electronics, I've gotten a lot of weird situations where people try to use a fake card to get really expensive stuff. I was wondering what everyone's weirdest situations were. In my weirdest scam moment, I was approached by a friendly man looking to get an iPad. He was real nice so I...

    The Things Guests Do/Pet Peeves Thread

    "Can you check the back" sends me into a spiraling rampage, especially when I know nothing is in the back. It's not like we just have a pile of stuff in the electronics stock room to rifle through and find what you want. What do you want me to do, stand in the backroom with my thumb up my ass? I...
