Am I Qualified if I'm a Former Employee?.
Inquiring Masses,
No really, even though I've worked for the company (and since I was fired you all should believe me) I prefer B&N to all other bookstores I've tried in the area. If new texts are your thing, then B&N is the place to look. And you can usually locate whatever you need online before going in, usually. And even though the membership costs, it's worth it if you enjoy reading. $25 a year is minor, if you shop there more than twice a year. Anyway, go see 'em. And get some coffee, which is where I used to work, and don't tell them I sent you....jk. You can tell them, but they probably won't even acknowledge you for it.
Just go! And read while you're there if you're not sure about buying something...they don't mind. Take care. Promise, you won't find me there (starving students buy books elsewhere).
