My girlfriend was recently in Canada, while vacationing there, she saw this store (pictured above) the store is appropriately named: NEEDS. Needs, is a low- budget basic Nickel n’ Dime place.
How about we build a store right next to NEEDS and we call it WANTS, filled with high end over priced unnecessary things we just want, and don’t need? Anyone?
kickass idea….go for it…
I SERIOUSLY WANT TO MAKE A STORE CALLED WANTS.
WANTS of CANADA WILL offer many choices in gourmet foods as well as gift baskets, holiday gift specials, and gourmet catering services. In addition to carrying over 250 varieties of cheese at all times, WANTS of CANADA will specialize in upscale and hard to find gourmet foods from around the world.
WANTS WILL CARRY over 5,000 gourmet items from around the world, from Belgian Chocolates to Russian Caviars, which can be incorporated into your gift basket. Selections can be by theme (chocolates, cheeses, etc.) or by country of origin. Perishable items must be shipped overnight.
WANTS WILL PROBABLY GO OUT OF BUSINESS SHORTLY AFTER ITS GRAND OPENING…
DUE TO THE AMOUNT OF PEOPLE WITH BARELY AVERAGE INCOMES.
I THOUGHT IT WAS A GOOD IDEA, WHEN I WAS THERE. SEARCHING FOR SOMETHING GOOD TO EAT.
MY QUEST WAS UNSUCCESSFUL.
I FEAR CANDADIANS WILL NEVER KNOW THE JOY OF WANTS.
THEY SUFFICE WITH ONLY THIER NEEDS.
UNIMAGINABLE TO ME.
NOT EVEN WITH SLIDES.
Needs = however cheap, they are USEFUL things, one-ply toliet paper, sucky but accomplishes the goal ( most of the time)
Wants = Overpriced shit you can’t even use.
As always, you’re too damn funny… You have a good sense of irony… (actually, I liked it). Brian Dawson

WANTS HAS NEEDS…. AND ITS CALLED HELP WANTED… ANYONE ? WE ARE HIRING FOR MINIMUM WAGE
instead of wants…could be – Desires … thats kinda more sexy…. 🙂
you should do a post on the call center thing….i used to manage a team of callers back in India not too long ago…i have seen some really funny conversations too 🙂
just popped over here to the states….my first visit and all…in my second month….near dc and its kinda interesting..but somehow still digesting it..cant write about it yet…
take care…and thanks for your comments
same here love the comments section
hmm desires.. well thats to “strip club-ish” sounding for me!!
i will do the call center one, when i get more that arent so cliche’
so.. INDIA to DC? what gives? why the move?
heh… valid point about the stripclub-ishness.
I guess so..most of these call centre stories are very cliched…for example the guy who thought his cd tray was a cupholder..i have a hard time believing that…
the company I work for in india, are expanding the US office and were shortstaffed here…so they brought me over temporarily to pitch in…i will return back in mid november.
