Used to work for Electronic Boutique in Swansea years back
Only for a few months. Easy as hell job interview ("You know games, which platform?" "All of them." "You can start Monday." "Oh, ok then.").
This awesome interviewing technique did lead to a few drawbacks, ie employing real numpties. One guy called Big Mike just stood there and smiled while wearing this big wax jacket, the big scary weirdo. He was only working there a few weeks and seemed to happily accept some other job and hand in his notice.
On the last day we got his wax jacket while he wasn't looking and wroteon the back of it, using electric security tags "HI IM MIKE" in big fuck off letters. The annoying glue on the stickers mixed and stuck firm on the worn jacket, and we replaced his jacket on the coat stand out the back and waited. We also planted one on his rucksack, clearly in view as to deflect suspicion.
He finished his shift early, saying goodbye to everyone. We held our breath....he didn't notice the tags. His coat was slung straight on, "HI IM MIKE" fully on display for everyone bar Mike himself to see. He walks through the security pillars and sets them off.......he looks at his rucksack and says "Oh guys!" while peeling that tag off. Yes, victory! He walks out into the much security pillared shopping centre with a spring in his stride and about 100 alarm tags stuck to his back. Mong :)
