Ok ok it may not be a zombie apocalypse just yet but tomorrow I have an interview for a real job and everything after being out of work for the last couple of years with a bad hip.
So your probs wondering what's the job can't be that bad can it? Assistant manager in game  . Gotta admit if i do get the job not sure how I stop myself from shouting its 10 quid cheaper online ya numpty! But other then that and robbing people blind on trade ins they can't be that bad can they?

Strange, I read recently that Game are looking to close about 46 shops this year, ones where they have more than 1 in a city.

Good luck and don't forget to erase your memory of every gaming fact you know before you go in. They don't employ people with any gaming nonse. At least not in these parts.

Don't worry about overpricing retail and underpricing tradeins. Think about yard after yard of shelves stacked with quality console games, and Wii games too. Think about the valuable service you'll be providing to people who are too old, too young, or too chavy to shop online. The casual gaming gent with twenty quid in his pocket and half an hour to peruse your wares in hope of finding something for the weekend that won't leave him feeling dirty and ashamed. Unless he likes Hannah Montana of course.
Seriously, good luck dood.

Best of luck brother, although there's some shit going down with the GAME Group at the moment. Might be worth taking a look at the posts below this news item.
Forewarned is forearmed, so they say.

Well I had the interview not sure on my overall impression parts I did great on other parts I didn't feel went so well. I did get the feeling from the regional manager who interviewed me that not everything is that rosey behind the scenes at game and the interwebs sellers have been really cutting into game this year.
