FLGS sucks

If you are playing video games at work, you are not doing your job.* You may not be doing anything terrible, depending on the situation, but you are not doing your job.



*Unless your job is to play video games, such as if you are a game tester.

Unfriendly Store

I recently visited the same store that Smootrk went to, and sadly the same situation was going on. The two employees on duty (and I say that with tongue firmly in cheek) barely grunted in my direction when I came in. All the merchandise was shrink-wrapped, and neither so much as looked in my direction despite several attempts to get their attention to purchase a few things that were in the case up front.

The store was utterly dead, which was not the case with the other three stores I visited the same day.

Active employees who seem to care (or at least pay attention) seem to draw more patrons. Merchandise you can look over seems to draw more patrons.

My first thought was "I glad it wasn't just me", but with a moments reflection I realized that it is even more sad to me that this was not an isolated event... more of a trend it seems.

I hope that with time the owner of this store realizes his folly and makes adjustments. I am sure that with some diligent effort, just about any store could (if they desired) make the changes necessary to be successful.
