The video game industry is a billion dollar industry. The front runner of video game/video game peripherals is Gamestop/EB, stores generate thousands upon thousands of dollars a day in sales/warranties/Edge Cards/bullshit. So one would expect that EB would provide benefits for their employees, like commission, bonuses, maybe dental benefits, higher wages, etc. We get nothing. I've been working here since July 2007, and I still make $8.00/hour... the starting wage at McDonald's is $8.64.
Ok, so when I heard about the EB Games Party handing out prizes, I immediately thought that maybe they'd have good prizes, like maybe a PS3 or a PSP (since Sony was in charge of the prizes), maybe even a few decent fucking games...
The prizes were:
plastic digital clocks
single strap back-packs
PSP lanyards
Rubber Faces
1 copy of World in Conflict
1 copy of Flight Simulator X
1 Copy of Flatout 2
Brilliant... they're cheap on ANNUAL PRIZES as well.
I work tomorrow for 3 hours... I make $8.00 an hour... I need a new job. Fuck, but I'm probably not quitting.
I fucking hate this company.
