For those who haven’t seen my show, Retail Rants is basically me giving my $1.50 on various subjects and problems you encounter while working retail.
My videos are supposed to be a “Do this, not this” for retail customers, to make their lives (and ours) easier.
I will be reposting them here on Manic so keep your eyes pealed so you can see what I do.
OK. As this is a LONG list I’ll just say it’s for series/season 2 and beyond.
I would like to do them in the order I have them in here. So just focus on the first ten. for now.
With the cameos / segments what I’m looking for is at the most is three minutes of you talking about the subject at hand. You can do it ad-libbed or rehearsed whatever you are the most comfortable with.
I would prefer it if you would edit it yourself as well. this will serve two purposes: #1 It will be a LOT easier for me to edit (with my crappy CPU) as all I’d have to do is drop your file in and that’s it.
#2 If you edit it, it’s your own voice. If I edit it I might make you look like a jerk or something and I don’t want to do that.
Also… and this is a BIG one for me. if you can help it please keep it to a PG rating as far as the language. I don’t cuss in my videos for a very good reason and I just ask that you respect that.
Due date for these will be January 15th as that should be enough time for everyone to get their stuff done.
OK with all that out of the way here are the topics:
1. Checks (have a pen?)
2. Unfunny customer jokes (It must be free, Etc.)
