    I got a job offer today from Blockbuster. :D

    Yeah, yeah, yeah, big corporations are evil, yada yada...

    But I love movies and games, and I will get free rentals on both BEFORE they even come out in stores....plus money.

    I needs me some money.

    But I'm very excited.

    When the manager called me back I started shaking with excitement.

    This is a chance to start over for me.

    Sure, I'm a nerd.
    But
    I'm a nerd with a job.*





    *excitement may or may not be fueled by large consumptions of caffeine laden beverages

    Why?

    I was going to say that you'd be able to get a better job than that if you were male, but you're female so congrats for finding something.

    Good for you :)

    And according to the police, the plastic membership card doubles as an all-purpose “I can jimmy the lock, and break into anyone’s home with ease” card :eek:

    Stupid women wanting jobs and what have you.

    If it wasn't for my forefathers (foremothers? foreskins?) I could standing by the stove with a baby on my teat, a baby on my hip, and an extra on simmer.

    Anything I should know about working there?

    Do you have to push Rewards and pre-sales really hard?

    I like the idea of quarterly bonuses...

    Well then what are you doing wasting your time at Blockbuster for? Go spend your time looking for a rich latin guy that can dance and buy you a bugatti, a couple of nice bags, your dream kitchen and a mandingo!

    Nevermind the perks.
