I was the first playing Guitar hero which you had on display for us to play. I was playing for a while. Like half an hour when this little weeny six year old boy wanted to play. He got his sister who is ten and in my school. She wanted her brother to have a turn. I told her to get lost because I was playing first. She said her brother was waiting for a long time to play the game. She wanted to play it too. I told her the game was rated "T" so she was too young to play. She said that I was not a teenager yet so I can't play either. I told her well I am older than you though. I told her to get lost. She got her mommy. Her mommy told me that I should let her son play because he wants a chance to play. I told her no way. I was not finished. She let me finish one game, but I still wanted to play because I WAS HERE FIRST. The person in the department called the manager because she was yelling. I think she was mad because she was having her period or something. The manager said that if we did not stop fighting that he would turn the game off. Well he turned the game off. I could not play it anymore. The good news is that little wimp piece of sh*t could not get a turn to play and that stupid *** that is his sister could not have a turn either.However I was there first and I think he should have kicked that family out of the store and let me play until I was done.

But the point being Kess has no right to yell at a child, by making the comment move it or lose it and expecting the employees to dispute the situation she took all responsibility as a parent away not from only herself but the other parent. As bratty as these that boy hogging the game may be Kess was not acting mature herself. |

I never made comments that they were angry because they had their period. I certainly did not bully people half my age an I did not write to companies swearing. It is good enough that the mother let you finish the song, but then instead of talking back to her and demanding that you were here first you should have let her son play. That game is hard and I am sure that a six year old would have played one song at the most and given it back to you and you could play till pigs fly once he was done with it. But no you lost the chance. |

Their parents obviously don't discipline them to teach them to take turns. If that other boys mother disciplined her son then she would have agreed with Kess that her son was being selfish and spoken to her son about his behavior instead of the Kess. |
| 5. Written by Trevor, on 31-03-2009 16:23 Working at wal-mart I had a simular experience as you. There was this ten year old kid. He kept hogging the game. There were people complaining that he would not let them play. One kid complained to the manager who ignored it because he had other things to do. He came back the next day. I told him to get off other people wanted a turn. His mother started yelling at me for telling her precious to get off. She then complained to the manager. I was asked what happened. The next day he removed the system and put it in the employee lounge. He was sick of the fights over the game. But then he removed it because people were preoccupied with the games and did not return from breaks on time. |

| 7. Written by Terry, on 30-03-2009 16:17 No offence Kess, but it is not up to them to babysit kids. You the adult telling the brat to "move it or lose it" was very childish then to expect the associate to babysit the area well they are not babysitters. I am not saying the other parent acted better but you too were misbahaving. Louis and that other boy are spoiled brats but both you and the mother acted like kids. Unfortunately when we look out for our children we act that way. |
| 8. Written by kess, on 25-03-2009 17:38 I was in similar situation and I told the brat to move it or lose it! He went to tell his mom and I gave the controller to my son who had been waiting about 20 minutes. His mom came over and asked what I was doing. I told her it was obvious. My son is playing. She got in my face and threatened me so I told her to go ahead take her best shot, lol. She backed down and took her brat and left while an associate came over AFTER she left and asked if everything was ok. I asked him where he was when this person was threatening me and why didn't they monitor this area better. Nothing from him so he walked away. BTW, my boy played for 10 minutes and I told him it was enough and we left. No wonder kids are in jail... |

| 10. Written by Louis, on 21-03-2009 15:23 Hey don't call Zachary a spoiled brat. He had nothing to do with this. |
