Guest The Masked Avenger Report post Posted August 6, 2004 I wish I could work a Norweigan graveyard shift. Well, this assignment is pretty sweet, and since there' s a bit of a crisis staffwise, I'm getting paid double the regular amount, which should total up at around 31 US $/hour. If it only had been extra for the weekend. Alas, my company don't believe in starting the weekend until Saturday 18:00, and it's still Friday 23.30 here. I've already worked out for two hours, worked from 14-20, and am currently scheduled to work 23-06. Damn, I feel effective. And slightly burned out:-) geniusMoment: Well, there are only about 4 millions of us, so we're pretty rare. I guess it *would* make a pretty good ice breaker:-) -TMA Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scroby 0 Report post Posted August 7, 2004 Do you guys at video game stores get some kind of special incentive for getting people to pre-order games? I doubt Hollywood Video/Gamecrazy does that, but I had this one guy at the local Gamestop fucking HOUND me about preordering Halo 2, whereas I don't even really have a particular interest in FPS's and don't own Halo 1 (And I usually like to play and beat the original before getting the sequel.. I only got about halfway through it when I rented it) It all depends really Vitamin X. I get a dollar for commishon when I get one but 75% of the pre-orders must be picked up for me to get that fucking buck. But I normally get about 10 or more a week plus I get commishon for selling MVP cards, 4 bucks a card. So normally I make close to 150 a month on commishon. But the main reason why I try to get people to pre-order games is because that same person who didn't wanna pre-order doesn't get a fucking copy and bitches to me cause I didn't have enough to sell for the fucking town. I just look at him and tell them "Hey I told you to pre-order a copy didn't I?" I mean I could only say that so much but yeah, normally over at the Gamecrazy we get a few extra bucks to sell a pre-order, warrenty, or MVP card. So next time your at one, support your Gamecrazy and do something to give us people a few extra bucks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
