Employee of the comic store - Day 1

[Taeme]

You would like to believe your life is normal. You would like to. In those strange moments, those odd ones where things just seem a little off-key, you'd like to say to yourself "This is normal. This happens to everyone. I am not surronded by freaks."

Allow me to tell you the story of my first day working at the Comic Express ...

It was a very quiet day, of course. This is casual work, there's no management hassles, no customer complaints, my hours are short and my boss is of course a friend, all the other employees are friends, and half the customers are friends. Heck, the people around me will do work while I happen to be the one getting paid. It's good stuff, let me tell you. Sure I'll have to get another job, but this is the ideal part time work.

People hang around the store a fair bit, after school, playing various games and doing their thing. I will introduce two of our younger characters -- Turtle, 13, who is practically my assistant and John, 12 years old. John is a bit 'slow'. I don't think he's as dumb as his huge yapping mouth would imply, but he's picked on by other lads for his lack of intelligence. I think I've threatened to disembowel him at least twice. You know how I am when it comes to threatening violence.

Midway through my first shift, after the owner had left, I heard Turtle screaming at John about having gay porn. I thought nothing of it, 12 year olds here call everything gay. In fact, if they didn't, I would probably think there was something wrong with them. I've heard more creative cusswords come out of them than all of Misetings has ever managed. No one on misetings has ever threatened to duct tape up another tinger's vagina, eh?

However, after a customer leaves and I'm under the counter digging through boxes, Turtle comes up to me holding a book.

"Look what I found in John's backpack!!!!" he says with an excited look on his face. I look at the book, take it from him, and read the title. Something like "Hot boyz" with "Super fly Latino porn stars" and so on brandishing the cover.

That's right, there was a 12 year old boy carrying gay porn in his backpack. Why? Well, he says his cousin gave it to him to give to his mom. He didn't even really understand that I was a bit, um, wow, mad at the fact he was bringing gay porn through the store, for other children to root through. He just kept screaming out "It's not for me! It's for my mom! MMMMY MMMMOOOMMM!!!! NOT MEEEEEE!!! FOOORR MMMYYY MOOM!!!!"

Heh.

So, what do you think I should tell the store-owner?

... And what should I say to his mom? ;)

Hmm. I have a variety of points:

First of all you should probably not out your boss as a tax evader like you did. Some folks take that kind of thing rather seriously. Namely those who like to continue to get paid in cash. ;)

I don't know what state/country you live in, so I don't know what the laws are regarding minor posession/distribution of pornographic material, but I would presume that it was at least frowned upon. Therefore, you might want to clue your boss in, seeing as how the possession of potentially illegal materials on his premises could get him into deep shiznit by any number of technicalities. Here's a good example: Dumbass kid makes it home with porn, gets busted by parent, and parent blames comic shop where kid hangs out. Bad for business.

Regarding the kid: It's difficult to fathom why someone's cousin would send gay porn to his aunt via the backpack of a 12 year old...then again, we do seem to live in a Jerry Springer world. It is disturbing that SOMEONE supplied a 12 year old with porn of any sort, but the fact that it was gay porn sets off some alarm bells. Many child molesters use pornography as a way to introduce their victims to the concept of homoeroticism and the sorts of sex acts they want their victims to engage in. Just because this is POSSIBLE you should immediately alert some sort of authority, either the kid's parents or teachers or someone, as heinously awkward as that sounds. It might not be the case, but who wants to find out the hard way?

Other possibilities are less horrid: The kid is experiencing some sort of homosexual feelings as the result of puberty. I hesitate to say anything severe out of respect for the feelings of others. I will simply say that some parents might find this alarming and might wish to handle the situation before it develops further.

Finally, the kid might be an average spastic bastard youth who finds gay humor entertaining and who has located an ultimate source of same.

There's my advice. Or something.

Dude, it's impossible to take being called gay even remotely seriously, when it's coming from you. Your icon is a glaring, harsh testament to how much you like to gargle cum ... It's the actual bonafide "Lay some gobs on ma tonsils bob" position, straight up. You're such a little wannabe goth cocksucker you make sure everyone on misetings is aware.

Anyways, I'm writing, and don't have time to play right now. Regionals coming up, you know I have to go.

GOTH? thems fighting words....... I do have some greys and maybe a couple of blues in my wardrobe.I'm busy trying to imagine you with a personality. Maybe you'd be less boring once I got to know you, but I don't want to take that chance.

You are a precociously ignorant sycophant and a perverted, halitosis-infested cacophonous catastrophe.

Taeme...You have to enforce the rules of the store. It is your responsibility as an acting agent of the store owner. The decision to tell the kids parents is totally up to you. If it were me, I would tell them that their 12 year old had pornography and let them go from there.

[badguy]

or you could ban both of them from the store. one for the porn and the other for adding 10+ more years of torment to the poor kid
