GameSpot (omg same letters!) is reporting that GameStop is being sued by store managers in Louisiana for not letting them be real managers and not paying overtime:

According to the suit, "All store managers are required to follow, in precise detail, the store operations manual which dictates the procedure for operation of the retail establishment. ... The job of store manager requires virtually no actual management of employees or exercise of discretionary function."

For example, the plaintiffs say GameStop decided how much to pay the store staff, made all pricing decisions, decided what (and how much) to stock, where items would be placed on shelves, and how they would be promoted. The suit also says store managers couldn't even hire or fire their own employees, that power being reserved for district managers.

Welcome to Retail. You may as well be flipping burgers. I'm sure that not getting overtime is the biggest reason why most GameStop E3 Passes ended up being sold for cash on eBay. Whatever. I feel no pity for the worker who hates their job, thinks they are getting shafted, and goes back to it day after day. Quit. Find another job. Something you like. Something that makes your heart sing inside.

Something that doesn't make you take out your aggression on customers instead of your District Manager.
