j wheazy Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 you do know, the more you talk in this thread, the more people in this community are going to despise you. not that you care anyway. OH NO....WHAT WILL I DO??? sorry i disproved your...flipping burgers is key to life theory....hard work & respect for your work is what makes you successful, nothing else & nothing more.

GrandTheftWalrus Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 get a clue already. the key to becoming successful isnt starting at McDonalds & caring about your job. see, you almost got it, and you didn't even realize it! "caring about your job" that's the first step. look, anthony robbins, you are almost there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonay_Montana Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I work at UPS and today I handled a box that was going to gamestop. It had gold tape on all the edges and warned to check contents if the tape is broken. Im almost sure it was a bundle of games, possibly GTA but I value my job and I would never steal. We see unreleased games all the time, especially when a package breaks open, we see sh*t loads of brand new games sometimes weeks before the scheduled release. As you can see I have access to the game possibly, but I would never steal because: A. I would lose my job maybe B. im not an impatient asshole C. I would feel bad for the person who would end up f*cked because I stole their GTA IV. A week is nothing I been waiting for YEARS it is nothing to wait 7 days. psssh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feldar Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 The biggest reason I think why ppl wont steal a copy is because you get the criminal record if you get caught. Once you are in criminal record, its much harder to find a new job... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j wheazy Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 im laughing over here while all you suckers are talking about flipping burgers & how youre all going to be more successful to me. I do believe I'm already more successful than you. I don't lie on internet forums, I don't put the people who live paycheck to paycheck down, in fact, I look up to them, if they weren't there, who the hell would serve me a burger? Who the hell would make the convenient things in life, convenient? I respect people who can go to work for 7 dollars per hour and still hold their f*cking head up high, it just shows how strong they are, and how much stronger than you they are. I respect the hell out of the people who make less money than myself. You should to (if you even have what you say you have), you ungrateful c*nt. wow...now WHEN did i put down ANYONE? i dont believe i put down a single person did i? i simply said, working at a video game store is not a job that someone should fear losing.....im pretty sure you can go talk to ANYONE at a video game store & most of the time they will tell you they make sh*t money & dont care about their job. and here comes the guy making assumptions again....who said i worked at a job site? im a fukin estimator, i look at plans all day. 13 pail & frail...haha im 25, 6'2" 200lbs. keep making assumptions there buddy, maybe one day you will get it right. and walrus...you almost got it too...its called caring about a GOOD PAYING job....you shouldnt care about a job that you make $2/hour, if you truly care about that job, youre a sucker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deipnosophist Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I give up with you, Wheazy. If everything you say is true, it says wonders about the construction industry that they would employ as an estimator somebody who is incapable of speaking English. If everything you say is a lie, I wish you the best of luck in your fantasists life. Enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandTheftWalrus Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Wheazy, people like you are the ones who get harassed by builders - there is no place on a construction site for a frail, pasty 13 year old. I can't believe for one second that you are employable. Not only can you barely string a sentence together, but you are also either a compulsive liar, schizophrenic, or simply unintelligent. Your life seems to change in every post: originally, you don't mention anything about a construction company, and claim you run your own company. Then you change your story and it turns out you work from 10 until 3 at a construction company (or do you work those hours at YOUR company) before going home to play videogames. Which part of your story is more implausible? I simply don't know. I, and every other person on this forum with even an ounce of intellect, chooses to dismiss you as a pathetic fantasist, whose greatest achievement in life is sustaining a conversation with a female for ten seconds. Oh and trust me, without sinking to your level, I don't flip burgers - not that I have any snobbery towards that profession - and while I'm not (fantasising about) running my own business, I do well, thanks for your concern. So do us all a favour, and go. QFE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SBizz6 Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Well I think this just points more towards the amount of precautions that R* is taking to ensure that no one plays it early or releases footage to the public. Although I'd like to see some gameplay, it's a good move by R* and will be beneficial to all in the end... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoy. what language am i speaking again? and besides that.....in construction, i dont think English is the language most people speak anyways is it? i would say 90% of the time, its spanish.... nice insight, i wish i had the courage to judge someone & call them names without stating facts. imagine how silly i would look if i started calling you a "pale, thin, 13 year old loser who would never be successful & couldnt ever be with a girl" simply based on a few posts in a video game forum....how much of an ass would i look like then? you have a very mature way of having a discussion. when you start making assumptions & name calling, its very dificult to win ANY arguement.

If you love the work you do for $2/hr that means a hell of a lot more than another meaningless office job for $48k/yr. If you can live the life you want on $2/hr, that's also pretty damn fantastic.

thor79 Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 To all the people telling people to steal the game: Get lost or go do it yourself...hope you get caught...lose your job...and get put in jail. People suggesting that a person working at a game shop have sh*t jobs need to check themselves. When trying to work your way through life you work any number of jobs you don't care about. What you do care about is the fact that you were in a job and had steady employment. What is it that most employers look for...experience. That can be valuable relevant experience...or it can simply be that you have been holding down a solid job. If they see a history of a lot of different jobs or gaps in employment...they will start to ask questions...trust me I've had those questions asked. Why didn't you work for x amount of time (I've heard this a few times)? Why did you change jobs every 2 months for the last year? It all adds up to reasons why employers will not hire you. So what this boils down to is...you're asking someone to screw over their future...because one way or another it will screw up their future if they are caught. You're telling them I don't want to risk my future by hijacking a truck, or storming the backroom of a gamestore...but will you do it for me and risk your future so I can see some gameplay footage I will see in 6 days anyway? Quit asking people to risk their futures if you don't want to do it yourself ya pricks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its all propaganda, I know all the people that watch me, all the immediate authority, and none of them are strict enough to fire you for something like that. Also I come to my job stoned quite a bit, and my supervisors know this too, because I tell them lol, its actually pretty chill here they dont really give a f*ck as long as you arent pocketing sh*t.

NO, they are getting paid under the table & are working ILLEGALLY. figure it out already hell, i use to get paid a quarter for every box of nails i could pick up when i was a kid. im pretty sure thats child labor & also under minimum wage again, another person resorting to name calling.....thats not going to win any arguements, you should know this as youre college educated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j wheazy Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 OK, i stand corrected, SOMEONE does like working at McDonalds.... as for the reason i wont go into a store & steal something....im not a theif. i never said to STEAL the copy, read through my original post in this thread....i said i would SELL a copy to my friend....thats only breaking the street date, which is a fireable offense, but certainly not against the law in any way, shape or form. if it is, its certainly not a jailable offense & would only be a fine, which would end up with a slap on the wrist anyways Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oanswat Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Wheezy, these guys will never understand the idea of working smart and not hard. They think that working for Mcdonalds or Wal-Mart is a career. Just let them go back to burger flipping and keep laughing it up. The Walrus thinks that coveting his job is going to get him somewhere when the fact of the matter is that the jobs these guys are talking about are all dead end, minimum wage, crap jobs, that will get them nowhere and leave them with nothing. But that's life, not everyone gets to make good money. We'll be making good money and then you can brag that you ACTUALLY have a six figure income.

thor79 Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 correct me if I'm wrong but I believe they wait to enter the barcodes of new games into the system until just before the street date if not on the street date. Which means you can't actually sell the product...only pass money in exchange...which is essentially the same as stealing because you are selling something that you don't own. They aren't allowed to sell it before the street date and it's not put into the system until the street date to prevent that...so it is not a purchasable product until the street date. It is simply store property until it is put on sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
