Everyone knows working retail sucks so why do I even have to explain? I guess I don't, really. How does one end up in a field that so completely universally sucks anyway? I guess it's the fact that since I was a child I wanted to own my own store...yeah that's coming along well. Anyway, in Orlando I was able to blame most of my crap customers on the fact that it was Orlando and everyone there was rude, obnoxious and wanted to murder everyone else, which is of course true. Now, this job is making me hate Buffalonians (or Western New Yorkers if you will) just as much and that's a damn shame.

Everyone here is so damn CHEAP it blows my mind. One of the other store managers I talked to said "Buffalo is the only place where if you buy a new car, you'll brag about how little you paid instead of how much you paid." That statement seems very true and odd to me. They come in repeatedly taking advantage of and working the system in every legal yet unethical way possible to save a couple bucks...or in one case this week, 14 cents. Seriously, if you people in Amherst are that poor I will start up a fund for you where I personally donate my own hard earned money to save your bank accounts. Now we have multiple locations...one of which is exactly 2.5 miles away and took me 3 minutes to reach the other day. When I'm out of something involved in aforementioned savings and offer to call that location to see if they have it in stock I get "ohhhh I can't go allllll the wayyyy over there!!!!!!!!" Are you freaking kidding me? There is no place in the Buffalo metropolitan area that is a far drive. People here are CHEAP as HELL and can't be bothered to drive more than 1 mile from their homes. Jesus.

What's your favorite place to eat in WNY?
I'm trying to try out as many different unique places as I can but find it difficult to get information on places since most don't seem to have websites or anything. For example, I was trying to find a menu or website for Empire Grill or Mother's but couldn't come up with anything useful.
