I've been so busy at my store and working on my book in my free time, I haven't had but so much time to play so I've only unlocked marth so far. I'm planning on playing sometime during my next two days off so I can atleast get to sonic and then toon link and ganondorf down the line.

Thanks for that little input because I didn't know there was anything outside of my current job for me in the future, like a business degree and my writing gig on the side. Plus, I can think of a few jobs that would be worse than mine. My statement though wasn't just indicative of video games, but of how people treat life in general as through my various jobs I've seen how what appears to be the majority of people refuse to plan ahead and be intelligent with their finances like credit card, car, and house payments.
Like I said, at my current job I could care less what others do, but anyone else who has ever worked a similar line of retail can sympathize with getting tired of people who complain about the difficulties of finding certain items when they have multiple avenues of preventing that especially with the power of the internet at our disposal.
And yes half.com is awesome as they always some pretty good titles available, but I have gotten a few items in not so great shape despite their description. I never really find too many deals on games on amazon, but I always find tons of awesome deals on movies and clothes there. I don't mind buying that new release and then trading it in a month later to pay for half of my next one because that's essentialy the same thing as half.com except I can get the new, never been opened release right away to play it with my friends.
Sorry if I offend. I too have worked with the public and I perceived your post as venting about your job. I was simply saying you won't be there for ever better things down the road. I ASSUMED you are of younger age and were working towards bigger things. Again I apologize.

it's cool, I am kinda young for a manager with my company, but this job is just a stepping stone even though it's actually a fun job most of the time especially when we get hands on before anyone else with the new games at our conference and get to meet people like Clive Barker, the guys of RoosterTeeth, Kane, and other random celebs plus various game developers and writers.
