Working at a video game store
    #19046684 - 10/28/13 03:37 PM (10 years, 3 months ago)

So I guess I'm gonna be working part-time at Gamestop (I already have like a main job too n shit).

I think it'll be really cool. I already know two of the people I'll be working with, one of them I even went to daycare with and I haven't seen him in several years. The other one is cool too and he's my manager


Who here has experience with working at one of those places? Did you think it was fun and awesome?

Not me, but one of my good friends worked a seasonal job at gamestop and he liked it a lot

They claim to pay upwards of 50 percent of what they sell it for, then lie and sell it for way more.

Seems like it would be easy as hell and you will get to see a lot of interesting customers. Don't think I could get into the particular vibe of it, but if the video game scene is right for you it would be the best option besides a professional gamer.

You could have sold it on ebay, but you chose Gamestop.  Don't piss and moan because they want to make a profit.

I bet you will meet some interesting people there. The whole gamer culture is kinda strange and exotic to me.

Your working 40+ hours at a regular job as well?

Gamestop would be one of the last places I'd take a side job.
Any retail establishment will aggravate me to no end having to deal with whiny
children after working a full time job.
If you can do it more power to you. I couldn't hang.

I've seen a lot of people post about working at Gamestop on reddit and most hated it. Some liked it though :shrug:
They seem to make their people upsell like crazy, that shit would drive me insane.

I predict he'll be fired within a week...and dead within 2 years.
