Ok, most work days do suck... unless you work for BlockBuster Video... it's alot of fun.
The part that's gonna suck....
Passion of the Christ comes out August 31st.....
I'm guessing well have people camping the door when I get there... so as for that movie coming out.... one more week, and I'll be in hell
I just hope people don't trample me when I try to put movies out

Yeah, that's the attitude, don't shy away from it, embrace it. Talk like Jesus the whole day when 'The Passion' comes out.

If one more blockbuster idiot solicits me to buy that "movie pass" I am going to jump over the counter and go balistic.
God damn at my local blockbuster they are relentless and dont take no for an answer. It really has gotten out of hand and is making me consider going to another store.
anyway dude, good luck. i am sure you have to deal with a lot of stupid customers.

SHit.... the people that come in my BBV..... even if I turned into a devout catholic/christian and studied under the wisest Priest....
It still wouldn't help with these people....
Raven = Atheist
CodeRed... about the movie pass..... we unfortunately have to ask everyone that comes to the counter. To change this, the customers would have to go to the people over our heads. PLEASE DO....... Raven is tired of saying... Hi, would you like to buy a movie pass today??
It gets old quick.... if all the employees were like me.......
I normally remember if I've asked a certain person, so I try to ask everyone only once. Most times I remember.
The Good news.... Raven hasn't been cussed out once.
I also found out today.... I don't have to work the day it comes out.... I may just have to go in that day and observe the stampede.
The fucked part..... I know theres more than 60 people that want to see that movie..... we only have 60 copies in stock.
I heard one guy talking about getting it bootleg????
..... but than he said that would be sacrilidge, or a a sin, or something to that nature.
and Yes star.... it is fun to work there.... I meet lots of interesting people, and some I'd like to K'O on the spot.
I get people coming in that leave their INFANTS alone in the car, in the sun, while they come in and rent movies..
I'm like.... WTF Asshole?!?!?
It's a challenge sometimes, a pain sometimes, and mostly fun and great!! I get free shit all the time

I bugged my friend for months to get me a job. He told me that I wouldnt like it, he was right. Your friends and parents are almost always right all the time, I should listen to them more often.
I dont think I've worked one day without getting yelled at. In big companies I dont think managers are allowed to drink on the job either. My bosses suck haha. I want to tell him to f*ck off tonight but I held it in, Ill probably leave the right way soon so I can get another job.

What the heck is up with Mel Gibson? I watched 'Signs' the other day. It had made it from 'hot new release' to average shlumpy video rental in record time so I wasn't expecting much, but come on--that movie was one of the worst I've ever seen.
Here's a synopsis for those who havn't seen it.
Super advanced Alien race capable of sneaking past all radar systems and using cloaked ships land all over the planet imprinting designs in crop-areas. These are used, it is hypothisized by world scientists (choke) as some form of orbit-to-ground guidance system (choke).
The aliens, naked, with no weapons, armour or personal cloaking devices (choke) spend several weeks sneeking around like perverts going by peoples windows and hopping on top of their roofs.
Our hero, Mel Gibson, ex-priest, goes on night-time prowls armed with a faulty flash-light to confront the aliens/suspected burglars (choke).
Eventually the aliens decide to chow-down on some humans. They are either sporting or special-eds aliens as they do this without useing any of their advanced technology. They just fumble around naked allowing themselves to get locked in peoples larders (choke).
Ack... I can't go on. Basically it's a Christian movie where the protagonist depicts the 'everyman' struggle against the horrors of life and slowly comes to embrace his trust in a higher-power. To achieve the affects of this movie, wear a crown of thorns and rub poison ivy on your body.
In the end our troubled hero discovers that simple H2o is a fiendlishly successful weapon against the aliens. They (it--low budget after all) sizzle and writhe and shudder from this simple gift from the clouds, or heaven (oops, gave that one away). The 'Fathers' 'son' is saved and resurected from a death like state (choke).
I mean.. c'mon.... 'ol Melly reduced from his tobacco-chewing, bottle-dregs drinking, dirty clothing shlumping affable dangerous war-vet to a euniched brainless simpleton who we are surprised can clothe himself let alone drive a car in this 'Signs' movie.
What's next? Barney's brother Bill: Surviving the orphanage and heroin, written and directed by Mel Gibson.... *choke*
