The 12 SC days of Christmas - game store edition

[CrazedClerkthe2nd]

I am not going to bother writing every verse but here's how the last one looks:

On the 12th day of Christmas the SCs gave to me...

12 worthless trades
11 screaming children
10 torn receipts
9 expired coupons
8 price adjustments
7 stupid questions
6 different gift cards
5 sto-len games
4 calls to corporate
3 major headaches
2 scratched discs

And a bitch fit about a black Wii!

Merry Christmas everyone :P

[Kristev]

I'm so sorry. I give you permission to hit them all with a focus attack. You could borrow my scarf, if you knew how to channel magick through it.

7 stupid questions

ONLY seven? you got off lucky!

[BaristaTrav]

Tremendous..

[Jetfire]

ONLY seven? you got off lucky!

He left off the "per customer" part.

[C. Cecil Ivanish]

He left off the "per customer" part.

...on average, of course.

You all missed his omission of the 1E before the 7...

They expected it to be several inches longer than the white one.

Did...um...anyone else sing it in your head as you were reading his awesome lyrics?

Just me?



Loved it though, CC.

[ThirdGenRetail]

No, Pepper, I was singing it in my head, too

You know, one of the first places I started to apply to back in high school was the nearest Game Stop... Now I'm glad I didn't. -Passes some Baileys over-

I did . . . just with Jeff Foxworthy singing it though.

Brilliant, CC. Two thumbs up.

[Chromatix]

I sang it under my breath.

Only now I start to understand how games stores workers have a hard life.

The day before yesterday my wife and I (finally!) got an XboX, and we went immediately to a gamestore to buy a couple of games (pre-owned stuff, but games we REALLY wanted). I start queueing, of course the queue is pretty long but I kind of zone out watching this repetitive ad on a big screen. Not enough to ignore the fact that someone smelled in there, but still.

So, it is my turn, I get to the counter, I hand the guy my three games, pay (cash), thank him and take the games.
The guy looks at me eyes open wide and starts thanking me for not asking any stupid question and not throwing a fuss because the box I got was slightly ruined (paying 5£ for a relatively new game? Thank heavens it was only slightly ruined!)

If that was a high moment for him, I am sorry for the hell he must be going through...

Oh. My. Damn.
