Sometimes I feel like it's a neverending fight against scalpers.

We have one of these losers who works at one of our neighboring store locations who comes in every month to buy all of our stock of Pokemon cards after he buys all the ones at his store.

I've been keeping them under my register to hide them from him so that everyone else can get a fair shot at getting some and many of my coworkers have been helping me in this mission but now he's figured out that he can use door dash to circumvent the limits that we've been putting in place.

Its disgusting the lengths that scalpers go to, to keep kids from being able to get cards the normal way.

Been playing Pokemon XG (Rom Hack of XD) and I found a Shining Vulpix in one of the wild areas.

My Lumineon has just become my first Pokemon to reach level 3000!

4,000 Dream World tasks down, 20,000 to go.

You can tell when the tea was brewed in the same pot as the coffee 🤢

Had a customer today get offended because I used hand sanitizer after handling the dirty shorts he brought back to exchange.

He brought back two dirty pairs of girls shorts and normally we don't take anything back if it's filthy but the manager was nice enough to allow the exchange but instead of gratitude he acted like we were the rude ones. He came back up with the new shorts and after I finished scanning the old ones and tossing them into the damages bin, I used some hand sanitizer to which he said nothing but gave me a dirty look before taking the new receipt and stomping off.

Disgusting but I was done with him or so I thought until he showed up again 30 minutes later buying something else. I rang him up tried to hand him his receipt but he gave me a dirty look and grabbed a handful of hand sanitizer before taking the receipt.

This guy was so butthurt that a store employee was understandably disgusted by his disgusting return.

I've caught multiple Huntails at the beach but today I finally caught a Gorebyss

Somebody crashed into a power box near the Walmart in my town yesterday. It knocked out power for a few blocks including my store which you think would mean we got to go home early but no we were stuck at work for two hours without AC.

I got the "User of the Day" feature over on New grounds today! My picture got posted near the top of the community page and everything.

Honestly I doubt it's something that very many people even pay attention to but it still feels pretty good 😁

If anyone needs a Reveal Glass, I set One up in the GTS

You obtained a new badge (Event Collector)!

Driflamp, Mr. Bagon, Summer Mareep... There are so many different Event Pokémon in Emera Town! Good job collecting so many wondercards!

Latest illustration is Animal Crossing inspired instead of Pokemon themed but it's up over New grounds if anyone would like to check it out

If you ever feel like you're worthless just remember that there are people who shoplift on Easter Sunday...

Our store is open today normal hours, we're the only store in the whole plaza that's open on this Holy day. Now you would hope that thieves would take today off too but nah.

Had a guy walk into our store, I greeted him yet he just glared at me and hurried over to the apparel section, I made management and apparel aware of him since he walked in wearing an empty drawstring bag but management didn't even respond, not even when he ran to the shoe department.

When I finally got a response from the manager it was only after I forced him to confirm that he heard me tell him that the shoplifter ran out with new shoes and a now full drawstring bag.

My title is "loss prevention" but I'm not allowed to stop anyone and management has to be the one to call the cops. It's absolute crap.

Got a shiny retro Typhlosion from the Fair!

Setup a drake fossil at the GTS if anyone is interested. Today's Dream World tasks is to make a trade.

The store director is a coward. He let three guys walk out , three guys who regularly steal ammo from our store who we caught today stealing bb guns, we caught em red handed and instead of calling the cops he flat out ignored us
