Currently: Future Shop Story

This currently may not your currently, but let’s pretend it is so stuff doesn’t get confusing. Currently, I am sitting awkwardly on my bed or in other words: Cinny Cath’s office, thinking about future blogs, future plans, and just the future period. How interesting CInny, now what is this blog about. Well this blog my friend is about anything that comes to mind while I type. And reader, I think I may have found something interesting to delight your internet-browsing mind: A story. A story about a crazy day and a Future Shop dude. Now this Future Shop dude must be really interesting to make a customer’s blog, and trust me he is. Well first, my adventure in the shop of the futures began when I decided that a Macbook will be bought today. I strolled on over to this shop of the futures (Future Shop) to find myself being watched by this Future Shop Dude. Not with a normal customer watch, and not even a normal person watch, but a “I get commission and I have to sell you something” watch. This watch had earned rude responses to his questions and statements because I have a great distaste in these people. He called me “Madam,” and with every word he spoke, the Macbook was becoming less appealing. My mom wasn’t exactly swayed by his words either and was more down to earth and like “Cinny, we like gotta get this computer anyways so like, let just get it” and I was like “Yeah but this dude” and she was like “Just whatever him” and I was like “Dude, okay.” But gosh how annoying this guy was. Not only was he just weird but HE LIED. Yes, this Future Shop employee gave false information to a customer, no a blogger, and actually expected me not to write about him. Idiot. Anyways, his first lie was that Future Shop is the only store that carries this deal. Having been to Best Buy, I was fully aware that the price was exactly the same. When I confronted him of this: he said that he knows the guy there well, and that he is very “tricky” as he likes to say it, and has the pricing wrong. All in all, if any future shop executive happens to come across this blog, I have a list of things that your employees should be forbidden from doing:

1.       Having Bad Breath.  
2.       LYING.
3.       Calling customers “Sir” or “Madam” more than once in a sentence.
4.       Have terrible persuasion skills, even when they’re all lies.
5.       Staring at customers like money.

I’m sure if your employees follow these golden rules, you and your company will sell more of those Macbooks Airs and Pros. Yup. I know it. And I hope to come to the shop of the futures in the future to see the progress they have made from the past. Wait. Maybe that’s why they never improve; they’re always stuck in the Future. Oh wait here’s a paradox: I bought the laptop (teehee).


Well that was my currently, what’s yours? J
