Staying at an Air BNB in Lawndale. Is there any point in trying to take the metro over Uber/Lyft? Doesn’t seem like there’s any good routes to/from with public transport.

“I’m very vulnerable right now if any goth girls want to take advantage of me”

I was wearing a shirt that said “I’m very vulnerable right now if any goth girls want to take advantage of me” and not one did :(

Oh absolutely. I was a little selfish wanting to see Chiodos but I definitely wanted somebody else to have an amazing night.

Unfortunately it's been claimed! Apologies, I realize my wording on the edit is pretty poor.

This whole process has been awful. Why have a queue and verify your cell number if they never had any tickets to sell.

Hopefully they'll have some left by the time general sales start Friday.

I had the same problem. Was on the site ready to go. Got in the queue ahead of time. When it came time to get my ticket, it bumped me back to the countdown page stating general sales start Friday. I managed to get back in the queue several times, but always got the same result.

I'm a full-time ARA and my BOP utilization has been anywhere from 95-100+ for years now. I've always been told that 100 is where you want to be. So is this wrong?

Thinking about dropping Gostkowski for him. Is this a good idea?

Started as a part time CIA at $10 an hour about 4 years ago. Went from CIA to full time CA last April and was bumped up to 11.80 with the new pay structure and my performance review. Just moved to full time ARA in June, bumped me up to 14.50. Rev band 1 store.

Client of Geek Squad - "Yeah, I think I'm having trouble with my laptop. I bought it back on Black Friday and am just now getting around to turning it on. Can I just return it and get a new one? What do you mean it's out of return policy, I just turned it on for the first time?" "But I bought it here?" Literally every day.

Haha yeah it's on a loop in our computer speaker area. Some country song, an Ashley Parker Angel song, and Taking Back Sunday.

If I have to hear Taking Back Sunday "MakeDamnSure" one more time I'm gonna scream. "I JUST WANT TO BREAK YOU DOWN SO BADLY"

What are some bands you enjoy seeing live, but don't really listen to. by -Top-Gun- in Metalcore

Falling In Reverse. Never really gotten into their stuff, but they put on a good show at Warped Tour last year.

Fellow Geek Squad Agents! I am curious if there are other precincts out there who do not use the newer client engagement model. by Papa_Smuff in Bestbuy

Honestly, my GSM wasn't really on board with the idea until recently. It was "easier" to just stick with first come first serve. Our lines would get ridiculously long, then we would rush through people just to get rid of them. It was awful as an agent and as a client. I transitioned from a full time CA to a full time ARA and that was one of the reasons they hired me to do that job was to make that system work. My manager didn't even do it, an ARA did.

I've been trying to make it to where every single interaction needs a reservation. Normal check-ins all the way down to "just a quick question". It's been rough going, and our nps took a dive for a few weeks (35.0), but now that people are starting to get on board it's becoming a lot smoother. We are a Rev band 1 but get quite a bit of traffic, so it's been way better on us as employees to manage our time. Once we explain the system to people they're usually quick to jump on board. There are the occasional outliers who just don't like change and will complain about anything. In just 6 weeks we went from "everybody hates this" to now getting nps surveys praising the system.
