future shop

Best Buy owned chain of electronics stores in Canada that rewards workers who disobey convention and screw around talking about the latest Britney Spears albums while they're supposed to be working, yet punishes hard working employees for being late once.

Store managers are also known to give employees instructions that are in violation of obvious safety signs placed near equipment in the warehouse.

This chain is a great place to go if you enjoy being heckled and pushed by salespeople who know nothing about the products they are supposedly experts about, and are overly concerned about pushing stupid sales plans on people, which anyone who doesn't drop kick the product the instant after getting home does not need.
Going to Future Shop? Save yourself the time and just give money to beggars on the street. At least beggars aren't trying to hide the fact that they aren't doing anything.
