what ilf has done to me

Post by htsamurai »

I'm working at guitar center in the accessories dept.
so basically strings and pedals and stuff
...
I can't relate to anyone when they say they want a tubescreamer, ds1 or bmp
even less when people tell me boss makes the best pedals and thats why thats all they use

however, I have sold more ehx stuff than boss stuff simply by knowing wtf I'm talking about, which stands in contrast to what other people do and say --'
"lemme get that boss reverb"

Man, I heard that place sucks to work at. Commission, pay, no benefits, everything is suck. Is this true?

Plus you have to endure dudes shredding all day to impress their girlfriends. And every person checking out the basses will inevitably play Higher Ground.

pay is crap, commission 'can' be awesome. I'm planning on making it awesome
benefits...there actually are benefits, however I just started up at this jank so I'm not seeing them yet
best part is days like today, I'm being paid to go to a conference in LA...so basically I get to hang out and look and play cool stuff...and get free stuff
oh yeah, lets not forget the employee discount :D
only crap part of the emp. disc. is that I can't buy stuff for other people, I'll get fired :/

My buddy works at GC and has been hooking me up with his employee discount for the last decade, it's the shit! It used to be really insane, like 40-50% off list but they've been cracking down lately and the discount is getting weaker all the time.

As for how he works in that environment without fucking killing everyone in the store, I'll never know. I dread going in there to order anything, like hell on earth. At least I can walk out and leave but he manages to block it all out somehow, an acquired survival skill when employed by GC.

Yea, this is your chance to funnel buyers over to ILF, do 'em a favor! I guess that destroys the 'ol commission, though...
