Blog: Ali’s no longer a Porn Clerk

It seems that Ali Davis is no longer a part-time clerk at a video store (which happens to rent out pornographic videos).

I first came across her “True Porn Clerk Stories” via an article on Kuro5hin (you can hear her on the forth ‘act’ of The American Life). I’ve enjoyed reading Ali’s encounters with the her customers, how she deals with problems that I wouldn’t have guessed might occur (how many of you think that people really do “whack off” in a video shop or return ‘dirtied’ tapes), but after a change of management at the store she worked in Ali felt it was time to move on.

Good luck to her and I hope she finds a fulfilling job that she enjoys, but I will miss her insightful diary entries (and, yes, like her, I do have a small collection of singles and albums from Aqua – take that how you will 🙂 ).

(Oh, and why oh why do I pronounce “clerk” as “clurk” instead of the proper British way of “clarke”?)
