re: #216 Targetpractice

My second retail job, very low on hours and only on Saturdays,is for GameStop.
Ours is actually run by gamers and have spoken up about multiple practices both immoral and illegal by the company.
It is trying times and we continue to openly question the Management’s thoughts.
Our store stays open for a number of reasons:
Trade ins. Our area is in economic decline since 2006. Drug use is fairly rampant. It is our bread and butter.
Physical medium. Our internet access is getting better but many don’t or can’t access high speed internet.
Distrust of the online buying format. Many people do read about the scams online. They hold that stuff to heart.

We have our detractors and our issues as a whole company and I agree with them. the store I work for tries and I love my coworkers.
I agree that GameStop should shut down for these trying times though and that management can fuck off. But I also work a main job that is essential and doesn’t shut down.
