I'm pretty damn shy and I often has my head down and when I meet someone new my head go down quite quick after saying hello. This is a problem when I meet women because I usually end up looking down their top by accident. Anyone else have this problem?

I worked for HMV for about a year and a half in a smaller store on IOM. The little guys of the company were great people and even paid for myself and a coworker to visit the huge shop in Manchester to get training. On the small scale they really valued the employee relationship with the customer in terms of identifying what kind of customer you were dealing with and catering to their specific needs. My favorite part of the job was when people would ask for specific artists (I was in charge of the dwindling CD section) and ask for recommendations or ideas of what their son or daughter or cousin would like by mentioning their favorite band. Being paid to share taste and being able to have the satisfaction of turning people on to great music as my job is a joy I had that I will never forget.

It's a real shame they are suffering from the same bankruptcy-behind-closed-doors, bullshit CEO betrayal that's already happened all over the high street with other retailers like GAME. Fucking travesty and I don't know how people sleep at night knowing they've fucked over thousands of hard working employees that always did right by their brand.

The HMV staff were always helpful and knowledgable whenever I bought stuff from their stores. Some of them were so passionate about their music/dvds that they'd give their own opinions about a product you requested. Really sucks to hear them going through all that now.

Maturity, bitches.
While I'm not exactly a fan of the music industry its sad to see the music retailer die. If they down size and become a music specialist again there could be some hope.

The solution
2D staff.

Although amusing, brave and quite enlightening to read for some reason, doing something like taking over the company Twitter page for all of 5 mins is so risky on a personal front surely. It could make you quite hard to employ in the future if someone starts spreading dirt about you after such a stunt.

Those aren't Keions. Why would anyone visit a shop with fake Keions?

1) Go to deviantart
2) In the search, type your first name and add "the hedgehog" afterwards
3) Find your favorite hedgehog version of it and copy the link
4) Send her the link
5) ???
6) profit!

It isn't deliberate though. If I was going to look at some cleavage I'd like to think I'd be subtle at least. This is just piss poor look making me look like a creep.

Just make a concious effort to maintain eye contact and smile?
I mean...it sounds obvious, so I'm guessing you've probably tried that?

Black band shirts are sooo cliche.
Lovin' the white one. A maroon shirt with that logo would be sweet.

Yeah maroon with white print would look sick, I'm doing it in the next run I think. Along with the black for Johnny :p Next time I'm going to make another plate for it so the colours are inverse on the darker shirts - white clouds rather than outlines. It was too expensive this time to be worth it.

I love mine, wearing it right now :)

Missed a lot today. Best accent is mine obviously.

My gf is a sonic fan, though she's more a fan of the games than the characters.

Huh. That was easy.

Vasectomy doctor is going to give me a "one stop" appointment - brief moment of counselling immediately followed by the snip. So much for the uphill battle my GP promised. Not that I'm complaining.

Wants to see my "partner" though. Jokes on him, we aint even officially dating yet and she isn't a part of this decision making process.

Breaking UK News - Dean Gaffney Injured in Car Accident

Made me laugh, then feel bad for laughing. Probably due to the picture the BBC chose. That said I've always wanted to hit him with something, not necessarily a car though

He shouldn't have let Well 'ard take the wheel.

After the success of their online Olympics coverage, the BBC will be live streaming from every stage at this years Glastonbury:

You're a brave man, Suairyu. I really want to do this but fear and a mix of hearing how they give you a lot of grief if you're under 24 has kept me away.

If I want kids down the line, adopting wouldn't be so bad...right? I guess my girlfriend might be depressed if I did get the snip though.
They tend to give you a lot of grief if you're under 30 or never had kids ever. I've been extremely lucky with having a GP that was convinced after talking to me for 10 minutes, and a vasectomy doctor who is (pending a short counselling sessions) convinced if my GP is convinced.

Adoption is exactly what I'd do in the rare chance I wanted kids. Parenting is love and nurture, not genetics.

You're a loon for doing it, but good luck and speedy recovery.
Thank you, but my mind is clear and not loony. This is what I want in life.

That is indeed a fantastic post. But it's also not what Evilore was talking about. It isn't creepy, just clever.
