This summed up the exact feelings I had working in retail. Low paid retail workers unite!
As a good liberal and a caring person who recognizes that life is a web of interconnecting influences, I feel sad for Mr. Creepy. As a clerk, I want him to get the **** out of my life and never come back.Exult in your existence, because that very process has blundered unwittingly on its own negation. Only a small, local negation, to be sure: only one species, and only a minority of that species; but there lies hope. [...] Stand tall, Bipedal Ape. The shark may outswim you, the cheetah outrun you, the swift outfly you, the capuchin outclimb you, the elephant outpower you, the redwood outlast you. But you have the biggest gifts of all: the gift of understanding the ruthlessly cruel process that gave us all existence [and the] gift of revulsion against its implications.

Dammit, i got started reading, and stayed up way too late again.
An amazing read, by the way. The author has a very intelligent, entertaining writing style, and seems to be incredibly insightful into human nature. Very interesting material.

I'll add this page to my favorites list.
Videostore clerk. Never. Never in a million years would I work in that job. Just talking with friends I can get all the TMI I would never want, but in a public business? No thank you.
I worked in a health club for two years as a cleaner and front desk clerk. Part of both jobs is cleaning equipment and picking up/washing *shiver* used towels. Most of the towels you find are on the floor of the lockerrooms, even though we provide drop-off bins. You go into the men's (or women's, but I'm a guy) lockeroom and you're surrounded by nakedness. Despite the Bally's commercials, the "beautiful people" apparently do not use public lockerooms. Miss Ali thinks she has it bad. We've even found a used condom in the shower area...
...Horrors.
The sights I've seen in there had almost turned me straight. Almost, but not quite. I'm modest and noble to a fault, so I never once fantasized about anyone I saw in there, but GAWD how many times do I have to see fat and wrinkled naked bodies? Developing tunnel-vision and staring at the floor are the only things you can do. And don't talk in sentences no longer than a few concise words.The cake is NOT a lie. It's so delicious and moist.

Only recently did the club start offering any kind of real food items beyond simple sport bars and fruit smoothies. I suspect they've had an incident or two by now...
The absolute worst thing I had to clean in my two years working there...
...shower drains.

yeah I read these before. Pretty interesting.
A note though- her video store doesn't just sell porn. They have a strange setup. They have the porn down the stairs in the basement. Although that seems like a good place for it. I was surprised at how many stories she had of men trying to jerk off down there. Interesting.
But even in my city of smut, we really don't have any major video stores that carry porn. I can't think of any really. We have separate stores for porn- and other supplies.

All video stores in Australia (that I have seen) carry porn.
Not that I rent them - the internet is a lot less embarassing.
