Texas GameStop Manager Only Sells to Good Students (UPDATE: Manager Suspended)

[quote name='Halo05']I fail to see how taking an interest in kids well being makes him a pretentious prick.[/quote]

Maybe some parents don't want a random adult becoming familiar with their children.
 
But he needed the parents to be in the store with the kid to verify the good grades. It's not like he's luring kids out to his rape-van.
 
Imagine how bad gamestop would look if they fired this guy..

I seriously doubt there is any threat of rape or harm to children here, there are security cameras in these stores and in the mall its located in or in the area its located in everywhere..

The stand-alone or in a shopping plaza gamestop/eb stores around here are really good about kids in the store though, the mall locations not so good about it. They usually let children in the store however if they stay too long without purchasing they are kicked out, and if they cause any trouble they are kicked out, and if they stay at the demo stations too long they are also kicked out. These stores will not allow babysitting or drop off services. Most mall location gamestops here don't even have demo stations anymore... hmm I wonder WHY. They will also not allow pre-order crowds to gather at unheard of times, because this disrupts business for their normal customers, if the crowds gather they call the police and have them removed.

My Mall-Gamestop took out their DS Demo Stations because stupid kids kept fucking up the touch screen.

Don't sweat it; Kane's just a malcontent. Can't say I've ever seen a post of his where he has something constructive to say. And I'm fully aware that I'm the one saying this, which is not evidence of hypocrisy, but, rather, evidence of what a whiny lil' prat he is.

Eh, I think it's a combination of both factors, actually ;)

As for this GS manager, it's pretty screwed up, but who didn't see this coming? Or, for that matter, that someone, somewhere was going to pull the "child molestation" card?

:lol: Fair enough.

:whistle2:s

Off to the OP I go!
 
Gamestop exists to do business. Period. They had every right to suspend this manager with his operation, and shouldn't even feel bad about it.

Very true, but all the people in the area who liked how this one particular manager was doing business are going to be furious which could potentially result in lower sales.

You are living in a fairyland if you believe that.

I usually like Kane's comments but I'm a little disappointed here. I expect him to be less of a smartass.
