Today, a friend and I went to Gamestop to pick up a game he wanted. I ended up buying a 17+ game, and I was prepared to show my license, but he stopped me an said, "I know you're 18". He then said, "Man, I've pretty much watched you grow up in this store." A game salesman watched me grow up. FML
I agree, your life sucks 27 118

OP here. It's a FML to me because, I'm not ashamed of being a gamer, I feel that it's just a pretty dorky situation. I totally was caught off guard when the site gave this entry the green light. I just thought it would be funny to share. A bit of background though, #155 is completely right, it's only been like 4 years.

That's more of FHL. He's been working at a game store for all those years. Atleast you had an excuse, you liked playing video games. Not all kids are into going out and playing sports etc.

i don't gets whats bad about that... so the guy who works at the store knows you, it's a mark of a good salesperson

Bro, this is nothing to be ashamed of. In fact, you should be proud that you still have that sacred bond between yourself and the employee. I wish I still had that, but my old game store closed down way back in secondary school.

**** his life for working that long in retail, the poor schmuck.

Most of you who say the employee is sad because he isn't a lawyer, doctor, are ******* horrible **** rectal jizzguzzling morons. Did you ever come to think that he is manager? The OP didn't say what position he is? Also, did you ever think of the state of the current economy? ******* naive morons.

FML?! How about F his life. He's been working that same shitty job for over 10 years.

At least you don't go to the liquor store and get IDed twice by the same person. The guy told me take it as a compliment. Right now it's not, since I have guys more interested whether I'm legal or not than my name.

Could not have said it better, #112. Seconded.

#112, well said. I think this isn't even a FML - if it's anyone's, it's the game salesman who has spent 10+ years working in the same store! :)

You... like video games and have been a loyal customer of the same one for quite some time. What a terrible fate indeed.

Honestly, wouldn't it be f the guy's life for having the same crappy job and watching people like you grow up? Lol

Nothing wrong with this. I don't see the FML. So what, you play video games. Other people do other things regularly too,I'm sure. @239- Who says it's a crappy job? Maybe he likes it.
