  “Don't blame me. I didn't vote for the current mayor of Circuit City.”

  “I have nothing but sympathy for the workers, since I myself was fired for being overpaid by the cash register while no one was looking.”

  “This is awful. The next time I'm in the market for new electronics equipment, I'll be sure to take my business elsewhere—or whichever store has the best price.”
