EB sucks!!!!

So every once in a while the boyfriend and I go up to EB despite the fact that we work at competetor stores. We know or KNEW the guys that worked up there, and they were cool with us as always.
We go up there today and two new guys were there, well maybe not new, but we had never seen them before...
The guys were pretty much dicks to me the entire time I was there. Treating me like I was a nobody, that I knew nothing of games, that I was nothing compared to them because they work at the almighty EB now merged with GameStop which gives them a whopping 4k stores. Big woop. Who cares. Since when did that mean anything.
I ask them if they are taking reserves for the Messiah. They ask me what system. HA. HA I SAY! I laugh. It's not for any system because it IS a system. Then they tell me that EB doesn't sell classic games. No, they don't, not in their stores. On their website they do. They wouldn't know that though. I worked for their company for a short short amount of time and hated it there. I know what they do there.
I try to be nice to the guys but they just keep on being dickheads to me. I asked them if I could have the cover art to a game.. Silpheed ... which isn't a popular game, which isn't even a game that they know anything about, it's just a game that I particularly like and happen to have, but don't have the original box art for it. Just some crappy Hollywood Video cover. Nope they won't do it. In fact they threaten to call mall security on me! What nerve! I am sure they feel very secure with their MALL SECURITY backing them up. Wonder what they'd do if they ever were robbed or actually threatened by a customer. Yeah it happens. It's happened to me, I don't need security guards. Fucking rent-a-pigs. Who cares.

So, in conclusion. My opinion of EB games has completely gone down the drain and I will never buy annything from their store again. I don't care if they have a new fucking copy of Rez or something. Fuck them. I better not ever see them in Game Crazy or I might have to call my own security. It's called "My foot in their ass". fuck them. pricks.
