      As someone who actually worked at a radio shack towards the end, but got fired cause I’m not big into backing down and one of the old heads didn’t like me cause I moved fast. Not a physical fight, just a verbal confrontation.

      Like John, my brother in Christ. You weren’t getting commissions for like a year before I even started!

      But I kept the name tag for poops and laughs.
