"It shouldn't be.. The plan we have is relatively decent, for what we need to have connected."
"Though.. Most of our issues could be solved by a few Ethernet cables."
A shrug.
that's really a shame that they're planning to do that since a lot of people are living as if they're old school and whatnot.
also. . it's mostly the explicit stuff we sell here attracts those people. . or people who are just bored and want to flirt with a girl.
I don’t know about you, Kimmers, but the digital versions are way better.
Plus, I heard they’re kinda scrapping the whole physical thing anyway.
But, I guess I can see how that could be a problem?
Though I don’t know what movie can possibly get someone like THAT.
I was thinking about the perverts who buy stuff from the store, but I guess that counts as well.
even though, physical media is honestly better than digital if I am going to be completely honest with you.
but. . still a bit weird either way so you aren't entirely wrong.
Still working at that video rental place?
If so, no kidding, the only people who still willingly spends their money on physical movies are—
Well—
Weirdos.
Yeah, weirdos.
" hmmm. . maybe it could be the plan we have rather than the box itself? after all, every plan will obviously have better network speed. "
" unless i'm wrong. . then that would be embarrassing. "
"Well, uhhh.. I think we have Verizon, so we'll switch toooo.. 𝐀𝐧𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 else, really."
"That is, if the owner doesn't ride my ass about it.. Like—hell, how's he gonna hire a financial guy to handle the store's finances, but not let him handle the fucking finances?"
" hmm. . no wonder why the computers are so slow when it comes to logging the rentals. "
" do you have any other providers in mind that could be better? at this point, we deserve better. "
crossing her arms.
" and better film selections. . . "
"Well, it's supposed to be only about 100$ a month for the whole place."
"Which wouldn't be bad, except for the fact that we barely get any service for what we pay for."
Tapping his finger tips rhythmically against the counter.
"I'm thinking of finding us a new provider."
" ehhh Hollie is just doing her own thing, we both know Miss Universe will just boss me around for fun. "
" also. . how much is the internet bill anyway? "
leaning in a bit.
" I wasn't told any details about it anyway. "
"Mhm.. Like the fucking 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐭 𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐥."
Another shrug.
"I wish Hollie gave a damn about the place. Half the time she just sits at the counter."
Ironic, seeing as he's doing the same thing right now.
" can't we just charge the CDs a bit more so we can even be able to afford more stock? or am I just stupid. "
" also. . I don't think all the budget should go to the porno films in here, it's really disappointing. "
" there's so many better things that need the budget. "
"Like—No shit, it's gonna cost too much if you're spending a quarter of our budget on 𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐧!"
He actually seems to care about this place. Maybe just a little.
please. . this isn't really shocking at all. you're just being dramatic at this point, but, at least you're glad that i'm back.
I guess that means a lot?
" mmh. . I really feel like he's making up excuses or something. I genuinely feel like we need to cut off multiple things from here in general. "
" or at least add some ideas that can make us more money in some sort of way, I don't know. "
she'd shrug.
"Deadass.."
A shrug.
"I've tried convincing the owner to let me cut off our supplier, but he's always on some bullshit.."
"``Makes too much money`` he says, while it barely makes half of what our other movies do."
