I almost went rage-mode on a customer.

So usually I don’t blame things on being a girl who plays games. I find it silly, and for the most part get treated pretty equal. When customers are rude at GameStop, I typically assume it’s because they just don’t like our company not anything to do with my gender.

This fucking asshole though. So he comes in, we do the usual banter, he’s making a payment on a reserve and then get’s pissed at the price after tax ($64.79) and then proceeds to argue with me. He somehow believed that last year to pre-order a game it was $60 even. When I politely tried to explain that where we live it is 8% sales tax, and has been for a long time, at least as long as I’ve been working there the last few years, he turned to me directly and said, “excuse me, I think I’d know how much the games cost because I actually play games”. WHAT THE FUCK? Then when my co-worker walks up, he is perfectly cheery to him? Fuck you, man.

   I have the same problem. I’m an SGA at a store in central Texas, and some of the customers are so rude to me, especially...
