-About Me-

My names Sean, and I currently work for one of America's top retailing bookstores. I'm currently in the process of writing a book containing short stories about the ridiculous events that have taken place since I've started working there, almost four years ago. I've made this site to share the stories that will be featured in my book. These are all true stories and events. I have only modified certain titles, names and/or plots to keep me from getting arrested, fired, and more importantly, to keep me safe from the crazy ass people who are in them. I hope you enjoy reading these stories as much as I had enjoyed living them, because what you are about to read, is shit you just can’t make up.

Phone Conversation

"Hello!"

Synopsis: 
      I was working the book floor, and as I was standing near a computer, my store phone rang. So I picked it up and customarily greeted the person calling, yet the man on the other line was completely out of his fucking mind, for he would only respond to the word "hello".


Me: Hi this is Sean, how can I help you?

Long pause

Me: Hello?

Elderly Man: Hello!

Me: Hi sir, how can I help you?

Pause

Me: Are you there? Hello?

Elderly Man: Hello!

Me: Hi sir, you must have been breaking up there, I couldn’t hear you. Can I help you look up a book?

Pause

Me: Are you there sir? Hello?

Elderly Man: Hello!

Long Pause

Me: Can I help you with anything today sir?

Speaker Button Pressed

Me:  Hello?

Elderly Man: Hello!

Multiple employees laughing
