Working In An Anime Company!
Posted June 9th, 2009 at 05:06 AM by mooseegg1982
So a year and a half ago I was working for a little anime company called Funimation. I was the shipping supervisor for the Zstore in Decatur, TX. Of course that was when the Zstore was still in TX and was still owned by Funimation. That has all changed, since RightStuf has bought Zstore.
But I digress, I worked for Funimation for over 5 years. I went from a lowely customer service person who answered like 400 emails a day to running two warehouses at once as shipping supervisor.
So now I get to the root of my blog: Funny Stories About Working At Funimation!
We had two warehouses. One held regular products that were to be used in regular orders and the other held overstock and over 100 bins that held different items that Funimation had collected over the years (rare toys, prototypes, etc.) One day we were having to inventory the 100 bins and came across a few costumes (like mascot costumes). One was of Sonic the Hedgehog, Super Saiyan Goku, and lastly a talking Vegeta costume.
So we decided not to waste such an interesting oppertunity. One of my employees dressed up in a Sonic the Hedgehog costume and the other in the Goku costume and they battled. Somewhere there might even be a video recorded on a phone of Sonic clothes-lining Goku on the ground.
Tune in next time for more Anime Company Stories.
