Hmmmm....I seem to like my job very much, but I can see it sucking if you work with assholes.

My manager is an asshole, but I rarely work with him. So is my DM.

Retail just starts to suck your soul after you've done it for a couple of years is all...

Its pretty simple actually.

Factory plastic wrap is not very elastic, it clings pretty tightly to the package. There are also on the top and bottom of the game little flaps on the side you usually have to peel back to get open.

Re-shrinkwrapped games the plastic is of a different texture, and is somewhat elastic. Also, it uniformly covers the package and there are no little flaps like the factory ones do.

Anyone who's been buying CD game for awhile should know what I'm talking about

For old Nintendo and Super Nintendo games, factory shrinked games have a line running horizontally across the middle of the back of the box. Re-wrapped ones do not. Again, anyone who remembers knows what I'm talking about

I've actually heard that said about retail.

ANY job sucks.

super mario suffers from the same affliction i did, only to a lesser extent. I got canned when a new store manager came along and didn't need someone else's asst., even though i practically ran that store by myself. oh well...c'est la vie.

As Randal put it:

"This job wold be great if it weren't for the fucking customers."


At least they give you a a good laugh every so often.

Thanks for the pointers guys but some Working Designs games seem to have that elastic wrap like the games on the Spaz label.
