EB Games

I've now worked two shifts - 10 hours - at EB Games. It is so much better, but so much worse than Blockbuster.

For one, I don't obviously know much of the staff yet, but it will take a long time for me to feel as comfortable with them as I did with Carley, or Ben, or Andrew, or Chris, or Jordan, or anyone else that I worked with.

Plus, I know more about movies than I do about games, and feel a little uncomfortable with games, even though I have a GameCube. I mean, it's easy enough, and I'm sure I'll get used to it, but it's a little off-putting sometimes.

And, of course, the staff there hardly talk, so the time goes by really slowly, whereas at Blockbuster we'd all be joking around, and eight hours would go by in no time.

As for the good, they're dead. Dead dead. It means we can get lots of stuff done, and you never feel like a chicken with your head cut off. I'm sure it'll be a little bit more hectic around Christmas, but really, when you've dealt with the money and customers we had at Christmas, this one should be a breeze.
