To the Lady at Best Buy Who Thinks Her Time Is More Valuable Than Everyone Else’s:
I understand your frustration. You’ve been waiting in line for a very long time, longer possibly than anybody has ever waited before, surely longer than those of us standing in front of you and who have possibly waited in another line before this one.
I understand you’d like to return your damaged merchandise IMMEDIATELY because it’s very important that you - YOU, Queen of the Universe - get service before anyone else. And you probably think that because the rest of us are standing here waiting patiently, not saying anything, not complaining loudly and at large like you are, that we don’t have anything better to do with our Sunday afternoons than to stand in line.
Me, I’m happy that I can exchange my not-working-very-well digital camera for a new one, despite the fact that I, um, dropped it several months ago. I’m happy the Geek Squad guy let that be our little secret, and that everyone has been super nice, including the girl who helps me when it’s finally my turn.
But that’s me, Complaining Best Buy Lady. That’s just us, the peons who realize sometimes you just have to wait.

Don’t tell me you guys support the Geek Squad. They’re a bunch of go-by-the-book, do not think outside the box overpriced you-know-whats. Well I think this because I have easy and immediate access to techies. But m’eh to the Geek Squad in general. Good marketing, not a good enough service.
