Whenever i have seen an upset customer in the past, it is mostly because they have questions that none of the other employees are bothering to answer, and something as simple as a question isn't something to turn into a heated fight in the middle of the store. maybe over in california or portland everyone's a total fucker and they have absolutely no respect for people working these jobs, but they're basically another country from the rest of america, so i'm not really gonna count them as a part of the US.

I worked retail for a long long time and never encountered that either. Encountered tons of other poo poo head customers, but never anyone who was upset someone was stocking shelves. I think you just got a real bad rear end in a top hat once.

Also I don't like when I'm asked for my receipt while leaving a store. The transaction is complete. I refuse to comply. I'd normally be chill about it but a few years ago I bought a box fan and as I was walking out I didn't hear the dude asking to see the receipt. I kept walking and he came out into the parking lot and grabbed my arm like he was the loving police or something. No respect for the process since then.

Checkouts in the middle of stores are just dumb as gently caress. I'm not sure which marketing genius thought up the idea of having you pay in the back of the store and being harassed on the way out, as you said, was a way to organise things, but they should have been laughed out of the business.

The tacked on action of a fps/tps rpg like Skyrim or Witcher or whatever usually mucks both genres up. Just be bad at one thing. All that's left now is inventory management, exploration and skill trees.

Edgar Allen Ho posted:Morrowind supremacy There has never been a game made since this that hasn't been a massive disappointment. Parts of Oblivion were good, but overall was worse. Ever since then games seem to either super-simplify things like Skyrim or basically every blizzard game, or make it so complex that it's more of a job than a game like stellaria or whatever. I like having to actually read the quests to know hwere to go instead of having a marker put on my map that I can blindly run toward, and I like it when the combat behaves in a unpredictable and nonsensical way sometimes like how you could shoot something with a bow point blank and miss 99 times out of 100. That was part of the fun. It's a shame they don't consult people with correct opinions like myself before designing games. I thought the customer was always right.

I'm taking his "in finance" at face value. If you are in finance you have a decent income yourself. Rich wife would be a client or her friend you met at a "party". Solice Kirsk confirm/deny.

Also they wouldn't "work hard" to bring home the bacon, they'd go on benders in like, Cyprus and Solice Kirsk definitely knows that and how to write it off. Let's be real.

Slow motion is overdone and makes things annoying to watch. Even in cute animal gifs, I'd rather watch the original one, not a frame by frame video of your dog catching a ball.

It's fine if it's the exact instant... it's annoying if there's a bunch of drawn out nothing-happening before and/or after.

New Orleans is the best city in these goddam fifty United States and none of that has to do with Mardi Gras or Bourbon Street. Also, people need to learn how to pronounce its name, and how to appreciate where their shoes are got at when they're there.

New Orleans is my favorite city that I would never live in. Pros: - Probably the best food ever - Really great dive bars - Amazing history - Great architecture - The food again Cons: - White people with dreadlocks selling voodoo tours - The French Quarter any weekend or holiday - Crippling poverty - Always smells like rotting shrimp in the summer

I'm not sure what i'd call the best city but rest assured that it's not in Iowa. I would go with santa fe probably. also I say new or-leens and don't care if it's the correct way or not.
