Maybe if they'd hired you as Display Manager, they wouldn't be closing!

Maybe if your managers would have encouraged you to be this creative when the bookstore was losing money, it might not have closed.

I find the fact that Nicole Richie "wrote" a book the most intriguing thing in the post
FangsFirst
And strangely we had enough left toward the end that I could stack them like that...weird, huh?

Two kids started climbing on one. I was held back physically...BUT, they did not destroy it, shockingly.

nicole richie wrote a book??

I believe it is actually a picture book. Letters are too complex for her.
rhythmreview
no she paid someone a shit ton of money to write a book for her

So I live in a fairly small city near Syracuse and when Borders closed we were left with no book store. Seriously, we still don't have one.

By the way, I feel I should clarify: 1) it was a Borders, so it was 2 years ago 2) meaning (thankfully) I've since found other employment.

I also worked at Borders. Such a bummer! I loved working there.
FangsFirst
So did I! I was just in Omaha on business and saw a closed down one, then found a promo CD that came from one, too (dunno where 166 was)

I miss borders, I liked the way they sectioned their books way more than barnes & noble.
FangsFirst
We used to get so much shit before we had a biography section, though...

[3) no, I'm not working in displaying things at my new job, and have even finally left customer service]

I'd take one from the bottom because I like to watch the world burn.

At one point, small children started climbing the Dickens after it went lower. I almost murdered them.
Hibi
Three letters saved you from jail.
FangsFirst
Not if I murdered them for it! Then...wait...no...

One cant be too careful. Imgur is really turning into 9gag... slowly. It's terrible. Hopefully, this is really all yours, I applaud you

I can also name the two employees who appear in one of those pictures, though that would be rude of me (even if we do still talk!)
FangsFirst
I can only offer pictures of my shoes in shots (which I did not upload). Or the testament of the ex-coworkers who know these were mine.

I can also tell you it was the Borders in Chapel Hill, NC (#490), and I worked there for 5½ years. It's now a UNC health place.

This is cool, nice one OP.
mynameisjonnyhowareyou
Oh... I misunderstood. Thought it meant 'closing for the night' until I saw a comment saying it was Borders. Damnit, I miss Borders :(
FangsFirst
So do we :\ It was hard to cram a good title in there....
