Glad you're done with that one. When Best Buy is offering better customer service you're truly working in a bad store. My first video comment and that job sounds terrible too.

Righ neighborhoods were the worst. Worked Marilyn Monroe's old street in Brentwood one afternoon and had only $5 by the end of the day($100 is the minimum just to get paid).

I got the job after his previous assistant fled the office in tears. But that's only my worst job in LA. My worst job was as a telemarketer for Olan Mills. The call that finished me was the one that went: "Oh, I'd love to have some pictures taken, but is there any way you can do it in, like, six months?" "No, I'm sorry, we're only here for the next three weeks." "Oh, that's really sad - see, I was in a car wreck a couple of years ago, and my face went through the windshield. I'm nearly finished with all the reconstructive surgery, but there's no way I can have pictures taken until it's all finished." "Um... Okay. Well, we should be back next year - maybe then?" "Yes, maybe. Thank you! Goodbye!" This was followed by my boss asking, in her thick Southern accent, "What was that? Why did you hang up?" So I told her. And she said, "Well, didn't you tell her we do touch-ups?" I was an agent’s assistant, for a children’s agent who threw tantrums and videotapes.
