First day.... a little nasty, a little NWS

[octopi23]

So, today was the first day at my first job. Yaaaaaaaay! I work at, you know.... the place with the big theme parks, the ones all around the country? I'm employed at the one in Gurnee, IL. Anyway, I work as a games technician, running the little sideshow games that piss everyone off.

So a guy walks up to me and takes a look at my flash (term for the prizes hanging up). I'm at a ring toss type dealie today, btw. He's no older than 25, and he says to me "So how do I win that dog [one of the flashes]? That's uh.... looking pretty sweet right now."

I look down, and my heart sank. He was hard. Whoa. Whoa. Whoa.

Ugh. First day, only one (kinda) sucky customer.

"Sir, we enough targets for the rings already."

[Mr Hero]

I'm looking for my friend Bill. Have you seen any Bills around here?
He's Bart.
The guy I'm really looking for is Mr. Bribe.
It's a ring toss game.

"Sir, we enough targets for the rings already."

That was my first thought!

Or....


"Sir, your stick doesn't count"

[Kinoo]

I look down, and my heart sank. He was hard. Whoa. Whoa. Whoa.

At least it was a stuffed animal, not a real one.
I work for a porn company so I'm used to that kind of reaction, nothing fazes me anymore!

The OP reminds of a story told by a friend years ago. He also worked in of the game booths at a carnival. He ran a bean bag toss game. The customer paid a dime to toss a bag through a hoop so it would land on a target square. If it landed on the right square, he would win a pack of cigarettes (which costs 25¢, I said it was years ago). My friend said he often cheated while running the game, in favor of the customer. You see, everyone loves a winner. So when the game was slow, he would nudge the bean bag onto the winning square. He would announce this to the crowd and business would pick up. Since up to ten people could play at once, he would collect a dollar and give away a 25¢ pack of cigarettes.

Shouldn't that be 'an Anonymous'? They are legion, you know...

hey it was a sexy toy.

actually i've heard of that too...
another message board i sometimes go to, one of the boardies apparently came home one day and found out his roommate was a "Plushie". he was extremely freaked out

please don't make me go into details.
Just imagine the "Furry" scene and apply it to stuffed animals.

Second, so what, a plushy lover found you... *shrugs*

First off, that's close to "That's not sucky."

Secondly, it's not much different from someone coming up to a cashier, asking for a porn mag, going "the girls in here are really smokin'" and being "at full attention." that's "so what."

Kill it with fire indeed.

Rules 1 and 2! Wait.... no....

The fact that the guy had a stiffie is pretty "ew." The fact that he was pretty obvious about the object of his affection makes it doubly so. What the object of his affection was is largely irrelevant, except that it was an inanimate object.

It's conspicuous hordogs like this that give their respective communities a bad name. >.<

I'm kind of with Juwl on the whole "plushophiles are on the very low end of the squick scale" though.
