So I have started my new job and it has forced me to reminsce about my last job. You see for the past 8 1/2 years I was employed by Blockbuster Video, who from now on will simply be referred to as BBV. This job had a great many up and downs, and I can't in good conscience say that I loved the job, but I mean hey, i worked for a video store. So as part of my reminisence, I thought I would share what my last day of work entailed.
The day began promtly at 9:15ish when I arrived to work. I then proceeded with the daily opening duties which I had barely managed to get done before the store opened. It being a Sunday morning however left me with few customers and myself being the self motivated hard worker I am, took a little rest.
The day continued along nicley, there was not much incident, I however found myself in a dangerous predicament, I determined that I had at some point become bored and hungry, so I purchased a lovely pizza and watched Star Wars on the TVs, which also is lovely.
Dont get me wrong, I offered some outstanding customer service to people if they needed something...well maybe not outstanding, but it was decent. If someone asked where a particular title was located I pointed to the general direction where one could fine it, pretty satisfactory if you ask me.
Anyhow, the day proceeded pretty much like that, I ended up watching another of the Star Wars series, had some sodas, said some goodbyes, kissed some babies, won some medals, wiped some tears, shook some hands, a few hugs, a few kisses-wink, and walked through the door for the last time, after almost a decade. It was bittersweet.
Well, I did have to come back for my camera, but then that was the absolute last time I walked through the doors.

You forgot the part about kicking over a couple of shelves and flooding the toilets and setting fire to the used movies section while laughing maniacally and shouting vulgarities and using the phrase "Who's laughing now, Jeff Davis!?"
Oh and you stole one of the carts, damn you! We want it back (actually Patti asked me to say that). Luckily for us, you were too stupid and took the one with the bad wheel. So enjoy the cold weather in Chicago, dingus, cuz I'm going to be sippin' some lemon iced tea on the porch later in the hot sun here and maybe I'll whittle me some figurines of britney spears and anna nicole smith so I can remember them when they were so beautiful...
so sad. the end of an era.

I didn't know you stole a cart! Look at you, you little devil you! That's pretty hilarious.
