The 1% that don't need Gamestop clerks

One of the Pach Attack videos on Gametrailers lately talks about how since video game fans know so much about games already that we don't need Gamestop clerks. It's the other 99% that need them. Now it is kind of cute that he uses those percentage numbers that have gotten popular recently but he does have a point.

It's sometimes embarrassing going into a Gamestop and you know more about recent releases of games than the clerk does. Sometimes it takes all the patience you can muster to not scream. Over time you do get used to it and you can say "No thanks" before the clerk can even finish making their obligatory offer of disc insurance.

I'd actually love to have self service checkouts at Gamestop like the ones at Dunnes Stores or Tescos. Then again they're not exactly groceries so that won't happen.
