I guess I was the marginally cute girl, and yes I was hit on all the time! Which is why my manager always gave me good shifts, that was good, the bad bit was that he kept trying to get me into the storage room. Anyway fails for him, I had a BF and I was not interested in someone who saw EB as a career rather than a part-time job on the way to something better. Urgh got worse when I had a married older manager... lolz, just like EB except for the security guys since we didn’t have any, and audio.

I hate JB, impossible to tell who is a sales person in there. Reminds me more of the Chuck TV series than JB HiFi. I hate JB, impossible to tell who is a sales person in there.

Some of them are a little off though - the home theatre guy knows a lot about home theatre - from 1992. This is a mix of WOW Sight and Sound and JB HiFi.

The JB home theatre guy does not know ANYTHING. He is 18 - 35 and will be wearing an ed hardy shirt. He will be somewhat ripped and give you advice like "LG make the best tv panels cos they are japanese" (i got that one). The JB computer guy, on the other hand, is invariably a guy of 18 - 25 who can only give you advice about macs. He has taken a lot of care with his hair and will be wearing a cardy. He applied to be in the CD section, but it was allready full of doc martin alterna girls.

That, or Dick Smith Powerhouse. The only difference is that the marginally cute customer service girl at JB would have multi-coloured hair, at least 3 facial piercings, and be wearing Doc Martins.
