Scribble Not!

If you havne’t heard of it, Scribblenauts just came out and I got to try it today for a little while.  Long story short: I want it!  Thus, I endevoured to find it today after work.  While everyplace is sold out, the most homourous place to visit was London Drugs.  You have to love associates that have no fucking clue what they are doing or what they sell.

My coworker P and I entered London Drugs, found the games section and browsed the scant selection of DS and Wii titles, hidden behind the Wii accessories.  While their selection sucks, they do have DS and Wii stuff there.  So we went to find an associate for help.

P: “Excuse me, do you carry DS games?”

SA1: “Maybe, over there my know.”

P: “We’re looking for a specific DS game, can you look it up?”

SA1: “Let’s go ask them.

We wander ove to the games section where another associate is busy with a  customer.

SA1 (to SA2): “These guys are looking for Nintendo DS, er Nintendo DS games or DS games.”

SA2: “We don’t sell Nintendo stuff here.  Sony and Microsoft only.”

SA1: “Oh ok.  Sorry guys.”

We proceeded to look at each other, thank them both, and walk a littl ways away.  We got about 15 feet, then burst out laughing.  We joked about going back and pointing out the Wii and DS stuff in the store, but man, how bad can you be?  It’s your department, you should know what you sell!  Unless, of course, Sony makes the DS, then man have I been working for the wrong people!
