And on the 15th Day...
And thus it begins….. A buddy of mine hear at work is taking tomorrow and Friday off to wait in line to get a PS3. The problem is that the lines are already longer than the supply. The Best Buy that I work part time at is getting 34 units and the line is already over that. So because my buddy is desperate to get his hands on a PS3 and had to work today, so what does he do? He pays his mother $100.00 to stand in line for him until he gets off of work at 5 pm. Now here comes the really funny part. It started to rain….. Really rain…. I mean Noah and the Ark type rain. So I ask my buddy if moms out in the rain, because it dawns on me that I can hear the rain in the middle of a huge call center and I remember him saying how he had paid his poor old ma to sit in line at Wall-Mart or wherever to get his PS3, and his eyes get huge and he runs from the floor to the cafeteria because you can’t use the phones on the floor for personal calls and cell phones are a security violation. So after about 10 minutes he comes back to let us know that the kind folks at Wall-Mart had moved the line indoors when the rain started, but the look in his eyes before he found out was the look of a man that had paid his mother $100.00 to die of pneumonia.
