Dude lays on the floor near Customer Service for 8 minutes, gets free gift card WTF?!

The stupidity of people in VA never ceases to amaze me. First for the guy just laying there on the floor and recording it instead of going and finding someone to help him and second for the manager allowing him to get away with the behavior he displayed and rewarding him for it.
 
What about going into the home theater room or the game demo area (with the seats), and just sitting there and vegging out for a while?

That is even easier work (plus you don't have to lie down on the icky floor...although who knows just who has sat on those lounge chairs/couches...ewwww). Just lounge for 10 minutes while you record it on your cell phone, then jump up and start flipping out and demand a manager immediately. Hopefully no employee will come up and ask you if you need any help, but even if they do, just ignore them until it's "gametime".

If the manager is playing hardball, reach into your pockets menacingly and tell him/her "I've got a pocket full of glitter, bitch, and I'm not afraid to use it. Give me my fucking gift card or you'll be vacuuming this shit up until the end of time."

NO, Man tea! tea! That's the new thing. Coffee is so passe'
 
He's lucky, at most places you would get an escort out by security or the cops if you lie on the floor and start shit.

VA is still trailing behind DC. Between the million dollar pants and a 73 year-old ex-Mayor who just got arrested for stalking, they have VA beat in the stupid people dept.
 
Ok I just came back from that Best Buy... Overheard one of the employees tell the AP guy in training to keep an eye out for people laying on the floor since they had some teenagers the other day in the video game department pretending to sleep on the video games isles. I just can't believe some fucktards on here would actually have the balls to "try" to pull this shit.
Seriously I don't think this is going to work again so why even bother?

Chunk : Listen, okay? You guys'll never believe me. There was two cop cars, okay? And they were chasing this four-wheel deal, this real neat ORV, and there were bullets flying all over the place. It was the most amazing thing I ever saw!
Mikey : More amazing than the time Michael Jackson come over to your house to use the bathroom.
Brandon Walsh : More amazing than the time you saved those old people from that nursing home fire, right?
Mouth : Yeah, and I bet it was even more amazing than the time you ate your weight in Godfather's pizza, right?
Chunk : Okay, Brand. Michael Jackson didn't come over to my house to use the bathroom. But his sister did.

No arguement there, but VA is still pretty damn bad.

Rocky Road?

But yeah, that followup comment kinda took away my believability of the story... in a "lighting strikes the same place twice" sort of way. If it didn't take place so long ago I'd be inclined to call the fairfax store, or ask my buddy who works at another VA BB and get the "straight dope"... that and I'd also rather not bother anybod in the real world over such a trifling question.
 
[quote name='IAmTheCheapestGamer']Correct me if I'm wrong here, but didn't the dumb bitch also put the fuckin' coffee between her legs right in her crotch area while she drove away from the restaurant?

Now that's the sign of a real brain surgeon there. Gee duhhh I don't have anywhere to put my scalding hot coffee, where should I put it while I drive? Oh yeah, I think I'll put it by my crotch. It'll be safe there.

I'm shocked no one mentioned the Wendy's 'finger lady' as of yet. Now there was brain surgeon with equally smart friends.[/QUOTE]

Perhaps, but I maintain that this would not have worked at the Tenleytown or Columbia Heights Best Buys. We don't go in for those kinds of shenanigans in the District.

I briefly considered a drive down to Fairfax, but the price in dignity would seem to outweigh the $25 gift card. :D

i can believe the OP's story, whats sad is sometimes, innocent employees will get in trouble for idiot customers behavior like this.. My personal motto is "the customer is not always right, they can be lying cheats trying to get free shit!"

Wrong. The 79 year old was in the passenger seat, her grandson pulled forward and put the car in park so she could add sugar. The coffee spilled onto her sweatpants (cotton, thus absorbing), causing third degree burns on her groin, thighs, buttocks, etc. The temperature McDonalds served coffee was about 40-60 F hotter than the industry standard, and the temperature was hot enough to cause 3rd degree burns within 10 seconds. McDonalds repeated refused chump-change settlements (the original was about 20K, double the med bills) until they got reamed in court because they were being sued by an 80 year old grandmother who was describing how 3rd degree burns on your genitals feel like. They then settled during the appeals process for an undisclosed amount less than the 650K awarded by the judge (the jury awarded something like 3M, using the % of McDonalds coffee sales for 2 days to get the 2.xM punitive damages).

This case isn't nearly as stupid as it sounds. Any company that would be retarded enough to not settle for chumpchange against a grandmother who had to get skin grafts is going to get annihilated by a jury.
