Or Observations From Spending Half An Hour Covering Electronics Today:
Twilight endcap at the beginning of the half hour covering electronics:
Neat and tidy, with the Twilight board games and CDs faced out, and the poster bin straightened.
Twilight endcap at the end of the half hour covering electronics:
Poster bin is knocked onto the floor and its contents are being scavenged by a couple of emo girls while another emo girl, Enoby Darkness Dementsha Bluddy Rists Rayvin Misspelled Way (Not her real name.)(As far as I know.) is on her cell phone bleating "OMGWTFBBQ u shud c all da Twilight stufs dey haf here! Lissa tol mee she wanted some Twilight stufs butt I dunno wut I shud get 4 her OMG!"
/breathes deeply into paper bag Ahhh...better.
Not that the stupid is out of my system, I'll also mention I found two of the CDs sitting on a nearby shelf (somebody must have picked through those as well) and the board games were all messed up.
I also sold at least 3 of the Twilight DVDs in that time. By "sold" I mean "watched as at least 3 customers grabbed the DVDs and made their way to the front checkouts because I cannot run a register."
All this hubbub....about a stupid movie based on a stupider book about some whiny twat and her sparkly vampire boyfriend? The mind boggles.
Dear Battle Axe Who Bitched At Me Because We No Longer Offer Overnight FIlm Processing:
Congratulations on noticing that we are no longer accepting rolls of film to be sent out for overnight processing. Actually, you didn't notice this until you had unsuccessfully tried twice to stab your film envelope through the plexiglass placed over the drop-off slot with a note taped to it indicating we currently can't offer overnight film processing.
This isn't because we just want to piss you off. You see, our vendor who used to develop the film and drop it back off the next day decided to quit the business. There are only two other companies we know of that still operate these photo processing labs and we are going to transition over to one of them. However this is going to take some time.
Yes, I now that lady in front of you was able to pick up her film. She got it in when the vendor was still picking up film for developing. Now they are only doing dropoffs but not accepting any film for developing.
What's that? I'm forcing you to go someplace else, you say? Not really. You do have options here. And they are, in no particular order:

- Go someplace else for overnight film developing like Wally World or Walgreens, but they may have been using the same vendor we were, in which case they won't be able to help you,
- Go someplace that offers one-hour film processing, like Wally World or Walgreens, but not here because corporate discontinued one-hour film processing over a year ago,
- Sit on your damn film until we're ready to accept it with our new vendor, or
- Ditch your rapidly-becoming-obsolete film camera and buy a digital camera already, because digital photography is the reason why a lot of our film developing services are going away anyway.
is with a 'vegetarian' vampire?! It's like when Batman went all light and campy, instead of dark and foreboding like he was meant to be...
) sells used DVDs... I have no idea how they got into that business, but they always have different videos out which I assume means people are actually buying and selling there
