that came into my work two minutes before we closed trying to return a new game that they bought today when we told them explicitly that our policy isn’t extended to new games, just preowned ones and you tried to pull a fast one on us anyway.
and then you didn’t have enough money to buy the game and controller you wanted.
and then you tried to get a refund for the Duke Nukem game you bought today when the game wasn’t in the case.
WHO EVEN BUYS DUKE NUKEM?
Try again later. Or just never come back.

I got a call from the Department of Health Services and the whole kitten fiasco thing turned out fine the kitten was negative for rabies so Coleman and I had a Chipolte lunch in celebration of me definitely not contracting rabies. I’m also making cookies today in celebration of no rabies. But maybe I just like making cookies. Wutever. I get my last two shots within the next week and after that I will be fully protected against rabies so I mean I could take up feral cat wrangling as a hobby or whatever. That could be pretty chill. Maybe.

It’s really interesting to try to work around language barriers. I started talking and then he signed “I’m deaf” and it wasn’t really awkward between us, it was just a bunch of pointing and gesturing. I’m used to trying to work around the Spanish language barrier but I’ve been speaking Spanish since the sixth grade so that’s fairly easy for me now but communicating without any actual words is kinda difficult…which in hindsight is obvious. It was really cool though because he was really nice and patient. I do cool things at my job sometimes.

I SOLD A POWERUP CARD TODAY AT WORK COMPLETELY IN SPANISH.
MY SKILLS ARE UNMATCHED.

so they just donated it and we ended up taking it outside after work and destroying it.
I do hoodrat stuff with the people I work with.
and if I look across the room, I casually have the two huge cardboard cutouts of Commander Shepard from the GameStop display that we had in the store. Sorry not sorry.

we have this little game called “How many price stickers can I get on Graham’s shirt before he notices?” I’ve gotten really good at it. I write little phrases on them like “meep” or if his shirt isn’t clean I will write “my shirt is dirty”. He put in his two weeks at work but that in now way excludes him from getting price tags stuck to his shirt. Most of the time I can’t hold in my pride for being sneaky so I tell him about it and other times I forget so I get messages like

“H8 you.”
and it does my soul good.
someone stop me I’m out of control

I have this war going on with my assistant manager with our name tags. His name is graham and we both have Emma Watson badges on our name tags from promos for the last HP movie. We mess with each other’s name tags like I’ll put a derp or rage face over Emma’s face and wait for him to find it. Then he’ll change my name tag to Levon (our district manager still thinks my name is Levon…). The name tag I got when I started working was a Gears of War 3 tag and it has “I’m going commando” on it and he thought it was cute to put a sticker over it so it read “I’m commando”…so now his Emma Watson badge has Emma sporting buck teeth and glasses…
I like my job.
A lot.
