An Indepth Look Into A Geek's Soul

Yep, that's right, we are doing a rant tonight peope.  Not a very strong one, or a very mean one, or a very long one.  It's going to be about Best Buy too.  Why?  Because hey, you have to rant about your job from time to time.  And now is my time.

Now really, here's what is bothering me about Best Buy right now.  It's the way we do business.  Both as a whole company, and all the way down to an individual level as well.  I think we are just way to pushy.  We contact the customer, they say they don't want to be helped right now, they are just looking, and the supervisors just want us to keep pushing for the sale.  It's stupid.  Personally, I hate that way of selling.  I don't think that it builds customer relationships at all.  I've had plenty of people just walk away because it's just too much at one time.

On a more personal level, I think we are just way to lax on everything else.  I know that's probably just me, but it bothers me.  It's more about sellng something to people than actually helping them.  Like shutting down everything even though there are still people our section and there's still ten minutes of shopping time left.  Yeah I realize you want to get done and out as soon as possible, but Mark takes forever to approve us to go anyways, so there was no reason to start shutting everything down that early.  And I did pretty much all the closing details, you didn't realy do a single thing tonight Brady.  But whatever.

Peace Out.
