After "Zelda" made her first apearance, I couldn't watch the rest of it. It was just to lame.
Its alot better than the other training videos I've seen. But her speaking "ebonics" was embarrassing.
I turned it off seconds after that Zelda woman came out. It was over.
Wuss. I lasted 6 minutes, right up to the part where the guy bought 3 different football games after testing a used copy of PS1 Madden.Quote:

Mind-blowing.
edit omg she comes back
I couldn't make it through the first Zelda segment either. My...God...
Game on booya!
Ten seconds into Zelda. This is already painful.
I couldn't take any more. 10 seconds is more than enough.
I'm up to Ann the Soccer Mom vs. Employee.
lol wtf Rydog how did you do it man?
I love the black guy named Bobby Payne.
How do you spell "Yeah" or "Yaw" or Whatever Zelda said?
Holy Shit. I just realized they filmed that at my store.
This looks like something Dave Chappelle would have done for one of his skits.
Your store is tainted. Get out. NOW.Quote:

I like the guy trying so damn hard to sound like a sports commentator.
The really, really white chick talking ebonics doesn't help either.
This is worse then the EB training video with the fake Voltron taking me step by step through the selling process. I wonder if I still have that dvd laying around....
Then Zelda says the saleschick is "getting extremely jiggy with it" :rolleyes:
Then something about G-Unit.
Seriously watch the whole thing it's worth every second.
I had some pretty awful training videos for my job, but nothing that rivals Zelda Scott's ebonics.
I wanna do Zelda in the bhole.
How can you tell? All these stores look the same.Quote:

ok, it's like 2 am. I'll give it another shot.
edit: aughhhh just made it past the used games session still going
also, lol at these customers. I worked retail, that is never how it goes.
LOL @ FF SELLING OUT, yeah they never make enough of those.
Zelda reminds me of that Delta Airlines parody from way back when, where this obviously white guy is speaking ebonics ("We loves us some flyin', and it be showin' like a motherfucker!").
Except, I actually thought the Delta one was funny.
Fuck the credits just go too far.
You need to do it in her mouth so she can shut up!Quote:

Does Gamecrazy make you sell specific titles each month that the company pushes on you like EB used to do? Good times, good times. The only reasin I managed to do it is that I hated most of the customers, so it made me happy when they spent money on a shit game like SvC Chaos for $50, lols!
I'm never watching this again. I'm also never shopping at GameCrazy.
Right underneath the GameCrazy shit I found this. I got a couple laughs out of it.

Word around the office is you have a fat cock.
Yes....I do.
I know it's fake, but it still bothered me how the first guy was like, "Okay, and now I'm going to set you up with some accessories, blah blah," as if to tell the customer that that is what they're going to buy, instead of asking.
I don't understand. Why do they have a female working in that model Game Crazy?
EDIT: Those Madden graffix were amazing.
Don't be fooled... they're just target renders.

Silly Beefy... black people don't have jobs.
Reading into this probably too far, but can you imagine how the people who got hired for this must have felt? I assume they are "actors". They went home one night all excited because they got a job, and even though it's mad embarrassing it's just one more step closer to Hollywood. I can see Zelda in twenty years accepting the Oscar for Driving Miss Daisy 2: Return to the Piggly Wiggly, and thanking the ad company that could see her talent and hiring her to be a B-movie level version of Florence Henderson's character from the Airplane movie.
Kraftwerks. I thought the exact same thing. I can see the lady that played Zelda coming home from work crying, with pills and a handgun on her nightstand.
EL OH FUCKING ELQuote:

Then you probably want to go ahead and boycott every retail store in the country.
you gonna boycott TNL as well?
maybe... that would teach ya!
I pretty much have. Internet shopping FTW.Quote:

I would really like to have a copy of that.
The manager that went into detail on what they did right I remember seeing at my local gamestop a year or 2 ago.Quote:

Everyone that hasn't needs to watch the credits, too. They're the best part.
Does Zelda show her tittums?
Why did he sell her a ps2? I thought the xbox was the racinggame platform of choice? Zelda was quite funny.
:doubt: in what way? I personally don't care for Gran Turismo, but apparently millions of people do. Other than Forza and Project Gotham what does Xbox have to offer tha you can't get on PS2 that is worth playing?Quote:

Um, Hyper Tit Racer Ayumi-chan Turbo. Duh.
If the fucking kid sends his mom out to by him a system and can't be bothered to tell her specifically what he wants than he should be happy with whatever she comes home with. Personally I'd try to sell the bitch a used N64 out of spite.Quote:

Four minutes in, getting to the soccer mom, and I'm calling it quits. My skin is crawling as flashbacks are starting to flash hard.
You stupid fucking soccar mom bitch, just buy the god-damn gift card and get the hell out.
Where the hell are there Game Crazys anyway?
I wish our old customers were like this. I would've just put a check list of what to say and what not to say to the people that came into our old store.Quote:

Sure they are.... sure they are....
