Stories from the other side of the counter include the realization that the public is everything Randal Graves says they are: idiots.

"Its too bad you have to work today(xmas, new years, thanksgiving, Mardi gras, you name it, open 365)" "Well, I wouldn't be here if people didn't come in."

"Ummm, is today two for Tuesday?" "Well sir, its Wednesday. So……"

"You're full of shite. I returned those movies, ON TIME! They're here, you're lying."
"Ma'am, are you sure you returned them to this location? You have to return them to the Blockbuster you rented from."
"I know that! You think I'm stupid? Whats your district manager's #?"
:picking up ours from/and dropping off Hollywood's videos that end up in the return bin: Thinking, she's stupid alright.

At the time, many nights I despised working there. Looking back, and having a career now, it was a pretty good gig.

100%!!!

Mine was when someone would come in and ask for the location of a movie while I was busy at the counter doing something else and they'd go, "Where can I find (fill in the blank)?" And I'd look up and say, "That's in Drama...on that wall over there in alphabetical order."

Blank stare...

Me..."Like the song...A, B, C, D..."

Or when you'd have a giant arse stack of tapes in your arm and you're heading onto the floor to put them up and they're all in order and some a-hole would walk up and say, "Can I look through those?" Or, "Can I take that tape right there...you know, the one in the middle of this stack of 18 tapes?"

"No...but you're welcome to follow me around as I put them up and take it then..."

Sometimes I think Kevin Smith modeled Randall after me...
