Sounds like that lady I saw today at Target who said that they where not putting any ROC items on the shelf until the 10th. I then pointed out that they had 2 pegs of figures and the Night Raven already on the shelves. She then said that those where not the same items as the new GI Joe toys and that was just mearly older stock that had yet to sell out.
I find that most staff don't know what they are selling. |

I find that most staff don't know what they are selling. I find that many people feel the need to just make up bullshit rather than simply admit they neither know nor care about what you are talking about. I have been able to get some help at different stores, including Target, such as when the Order 66 sets first were released or some of the other Target exclusives, I was able to successfully explain what they were and the employee was able to understand me and actually go into the stockroom and correctly identify them and bring them out to me. It was an amazing moment. |

The problem is theese people receive low pay, little benefits and NO TRAINING! I worked big box retail at Kmart for four years. Everything I learned I learned on the fly. These retailers give their people absolutely no training in the products what so ever. When I was at Kmart I knew more about the products than the store manager. I had people who had worked there for 19 years come up to me and ask me where things were.

Maybe he is that one guy that I have heard of that doesn't like G.I. Joe! I knew he was out there but couldn't find him. Did you get a picture of him? He is as allusive as Big Foot some say!

I also knew when it was time to get out of that job. I guess that's why I have now moved on to bigger and better things. |
