    All the good EB employees quit.

    The shitty ones are lifers.

    What if you get "fired" (i.e they stop giving you hours for months on end, then when you try to use your employee discount it doesn't work, no they did not fucking tell me)?

    I think the thing that clinched it was me telling a customer to die in a fire when he said he hadn't played Zelda.

    I didn't take the job very seriously.

    Seriously. I don't enjoy playing Zelda games and I hate it when people treat that as a crime.

    I'm just picturing him standing over some 6-year-old telling him that his taste in games sucks and that he should die while he cries and his mother looks on in horror.

    Hey, you're the toddler who is here to save the world right? Could you pick up my laundry from the store for me? Thanks.

    But really, I actually liked Link's Awakening a good bit and played through half of Link to the Past and enjoyed it before losing interest. The 3D ones I've watched people play and I really can't see myself enjoying the gameplay but I don't mind watching.

    I'm more of a platform guy than a Zelda guy when it comes to 2D. Or traditional turn-based RPGs. The closest thing I really enjoyed a lot that was like the 3D Zeldas was Kingdom Hearts.

    Hey now, Link to the Past is probably my favorite game ever.

    I'm just saying, he shouldn't get indignant over getting fired after acting like he's a douche, and then writing it off as 'Oh, it was just EB.' Have some fucking pride in your work. Yeah it's a shit job, I know because I did it (well, Gamestop, anyway) but it's no excuse to be a dick. If it were a regular customer who knew he was just fucking with him, it'd be different, but that is shit service to joe shlub off the street.

    Good luck on your next job, man. You'll probably never have to swallow your pride.

    Yeah I've really got to go with Fugitive and Tiffany on this one.

    Not taking a job seriously has nothing to do with what you're being paid to do. Working somewhere like EB, or any other job is no reason not to approach that job with a professional attitude, and just proves what a self important shitstain you are.

    If this isn't a bullshit story tying to impress us then it's even more stupid. Getting fired is always bad at any level. You get a poor reputation and you end up with no references.

    Because when Sony's going to make a giant, killer ping-pongdroid in your honor you know you've made it.

    I'm disappointed it didn't come with a pink polo shirt. The Fruit Fucker makes up for it though. I like how it is so damn huge, one of the paddles is scraping the ceiling.
