So I have a “job” for the “summer” now. I work at Purple Potamus now, as a “key holder” which means I’m a cashier who has a key to the store. Great idea right? So come by the store around midnight, we’ll do bad things cause I can get in or whatever. Thats the plan anyway. Gotta do something to supplement the paycheck, and every so often you have to do something for yourself. Like break your friends into a video store.

I was googling about the potamus and see if I could find anything. I worked there from 2000 to april 2004, which means I just missed you when I quit. I was one of the managers there, and I never quite understood why they put the porn in an enclosed area with IT”S OWN EMERGENCY EXIT!!!
Anyway, I”m sorry you had to work there too. I thought it was going to be a short thing to do while in college and it sucked four years out of my life and about 6 from my ex who worked at that one AND went on to be the store manager of the VA one.
I worked for Dan for about 3 weeks before I quit. I was the 1st choice of store manager but i didn”t want a WHOPPING $7/hour for slave labor. Dan tried to put his mark on the store so I told him to go fuck himself and quit. I didn”t need the reference anyway.
You didn”t get the creapy shit that I got. Old men, like dudes in their 80s renting 6 porns at a time and bringing them ALL back, watched halfway through, about an hour later….YUCK.

Ah, my only claim to fame from working there…

Hooooooooly shit, someone else who worked at the potamus. Insane. Well big up yourself Mr. Manager Mike, we both managed to make it out of there resonably unscathed. The potamus does make the rounds though…
ps: about that gamefaqs review, if that kid had asked me to erase a game from his rental records I probably would have punched him in the face.
pps: did you know Rikidozan was Korean? Holy crap.
