Hi everyone, OP here. The game they were asking for, was, yes, Battletoads. Just another prank call. Many of you assume that the guy on the other end could have called me legitimately asking for the game, but really, it was the same person each and every time. They were just trying to be a jerk. Hell, you could hear their friends laughing in the background of the call. Yes, I understand that it isn't right to behave like this in the workplace, but I was a bit stressed out (girlfriend breaking up with me, etc.) and I didn't really feel great that day. After some explaining to the boss about the whole Battletoads prank call phenomenon, I was rehired and just took a 3 day suspension. I promise you all that I will not behave in such a way ever again, and thank you all for your wonderful comments.

YDI. A little self-control goes a long way. You were at work so there is a level of professionalism expected especially in difficult situations
Battletoads?
I'm sorry, remind me what battletoads is?
The 1991 beat em up starring Rash, Pimple, and Zitz. Surprisingly it's one of my favorite games of all time.
Battletoads!
Next time have a sense of humor and play along!
Well, now you can go work for GameStop. Bet they have Battletoads ;)
Anyone who said ydi has never worked in retail or a service industry sorry OP fyl
I have worked in retail and I've clicked YDI. There's the proper shit worth getting pissy over and there's being extremely unprofessional. This here is the latter. The very definition in fact.
Shame on you OP, Shadow of The Colossus is a great game! *sarcasm*

do you have battletoads??
Well, you do need to have self-control in the workplace, but that shouldn't be a firing offense
