I wish to try this "ItalianIsland".

Okay, I know that rice pilaf, mashed potatoes, baked potato are the normal sides, and that most salad dressings are italian, thousand island, ranch, but still, at least don't make it sound like I can have mashedpilafpotato with italianislandranch.
From my own experience, working in retail, you have to say the same lines about 300 times per night. So they get completely ingrained into your brain and you say them robotically.
To answer the phone, I have to say "Thank you for calling Blockbuster [city] where there is life after late fees, this is [name], how may I help you?" I can fit that sentence into about 3 syllables by now.

Does your Blockbuster honor the free dvd coupons that come with the Blockbuster online subscription? None of the ones in my city do. I'm wondering if it is just here, or are those free dvd coupons generally worthless.
I used to just say "Blockbuster, [name]."
Now I just say "Hello."
Now I just say "Hello."

Yeah. In fact, those dvd coupons are one of the selling points we use in trying to push those blasted online subscriptions on people.
I'm guessing your store is a franchise store, not a corporate-owned one. Any corporate store will honor them, if they don't, raise a big stink about it.
The people I worked with would say "No" because they are too freaking stupid to use a scanner.
The cashier-ing part of the whole job is easy. The customers, co-workers, and other random crap sucks balls.

I think I remember hearing 'franchise' and something about 'wont get reimbursed' when I was trying to get a free dvd so that's probably it.
She said it like she's probably had to give that speech 800 times so I couldn't really follow all of it.
