some things i cannot change, but 'til i try i'll never know

there is a group of people who subcrontracted to best buy. i am not entirely sure what their job, and from i can tell, they are not sure either. unless, their job is to come in to the store and completely fuck things up. i think they might be doing it wrong. much like many of the best buy third-party "helpers" (i am looking at you secret shoppers), they completely lack common sense. on top of that, none of them have any training to do whatever it is they are supposed to be doing. they carry around paperwork they seemingly cannot understand or read. if they are given a map, they have no concept of how it is supposed to work. they have to be "supervised" to prevent them from boning the situation which, given a minute to themselves, they are likely to screw up anyway. add to that fact, none of them can use any of the computers or systems in place to do their job. i swear to god one of them asked me if print screen still worked. what the fuck lady? when was the last time you used a computer, the early nineties? are you going to be looking for our dot matrix printer next?

so here is the end result of having these third parties "helping" our store. since they are incapable of working independantly, they are paying them to have a best buy employee do their job for them. this is to supposed prevent best buy employees from doing these tasks. clearly, that plan has failed miserably. if it is like anything like any other job, the third party persons probably make more than our standard employees. which is weird considering that they cannot do the job, because they are braindead. thanks best buy, i am sure all the money you are wasting on these d-bags and their daily mistakes could not have been used for something useful. like one employee who knows what the fuck they are doing.
