How did I come to get this shop? Well... I've been working there as Casey's shop assistant for about six seven years now. Recently she decided to leave the shop and I thought I'd take it off her hands. The shop is really all I have what with my son off in Ireland and having no one else in my life.
The things I love about this shop are - Helping students get their books - Being around books all day - The social interaction - Nostalgia of the shop - The atmosphere of the shop - The opportunity to tutor the younger generation for their OWLs and NEWTs
The things I despise about this shop are - Not working in the study of rare artifacts - Customers who are impatient and rude - When the days are long and slow - When the shop is covered in dust - Anyone who walks into the shop with a drink in their hand. Drinks and books don't mix.
Oh yes, there's something else I need to tell you! I have to say that as much as I like travelling it doesn't bother me to spend my days in the book shop.

I would like to work at Flourish and Blotts, as a cashier, CSR, stocker and/or tutor.
The things I love about this shop are -Books. Working in a bookstore would make me as happy as a paleontology enthusiast whose application to Jurassic Park was just accepted. -The opportunity to meet, interact with, and help people find what they are looking for. -The environment. From the smell of books hot off the press, to the peace and quiet, to the perfectly calibrated lighting and the antique furniture, this store suits my taste perfectly. -Tutoring is an outlet for me to use my expertise in divination, potions and charms. I'd love to help people understand these subjects, it will help me keep in practice with their fundamentals. -It's proximity to the other stores in Diagon Alley, and it's location in a major wizarding world hub. Working here would negate me having to find a job in the muggle community, where half my skill set would remain untapped. -It's closed on Sundays, so I can respect my Sabbath.
The things I despise about this shop are -The disrespect some customers have for the written word. -When order fails and the shop gets disorganized or cluttered. -Days when there are no customers or people appreciating the awesome tomes. -Distractions out on the street. -Being around books all the time but being unable to read them until after work.
Oh yes, there's something else I need to tell you! Sometime within the next few years I'll be leaving to serve a church mission. I'll be gone two years, but I am happy to work until that time comes and would love to reapply upon my return.

The things I love about this shop are Kids asking about wandlore (which is cute), first years student customers, Damien's hellion kid, making a name for myself in the market, socializing
The things I despise about this shop are Posh people being picky over wand properties, defected woods from delivery, clumsy customers, the fact that it's London and it's noisy, customers thinking that their wand isn't 'cool' enough... Seriously, get over with it.

The things I despise about this shop are the dark history, the sad looks Olyvia gets sometimes, how slow it is during school years, loud, missing my family

How did I come to get this shop? Well... I bought it at the tender age of twenty three with all my savings and a considerable loan from my parents. I've regretted that decision ever since (Nah, I'm kidding).
The things I love about this shop are the smell of baked bread, the ready supply of alcohol, meeting new people, being able to see my kids all day, and being able to yell while I'm at work and not get reprimanded.
The things I despise about this shop are the nasty drunks (the funny drunks are alright), the idiot kids who show up looking to 'rent a room for the night' so they can finally get to third base, the slow days, there always being something to fix, and my kids thinking it's a good idea to hide in the rooms and jump out at guests like little demons.
Oh yes, there's something else I need to tell you! I close the pub area early on Sundays so I can have some semblance of a social life and also teach my kids bar-tending tricks (we use butterbeer, calm down).

How did I come to get this shop? Well... Arathorn was seen as a good soul by Siobhan while he was at Hogwarts. He knew she eventually planned on retiring, so post graduation he decided to continue living at home until he had earned enough money through odd jobs, and with some support from his parents, he finally has enough money to buy the shop from her so she can retire.
The things I love about this shop are -The animals! All the animals! (including the snails) -The look in the eyes of first year students when they buy their first pet -The murmurer from slightly magical creatures around him -Seeing a perfect match between animal and owner -The smell of the store -The love and affection off all the creatures -The challenge of knowing each creature's care schedule and being able to do that each day
The things I despise about this shop are -Animal poop. All the animal poop. Everywhere -Students that really don't know how to care for their pets and refuse to learn -Parents that enable children who shouldn't have pets, have pets (who he has to sell to because he has bills to pay) -That one half-kneazle that no one who will buy because she bites everyone, (including Arathorn) -So many mundane tasks, every single day -The smell of the store

I would like to purchase Shutterbuttons Photography
How did I come to get this shop? Well... my parents saved up money so I could go to Uni upon graduation, but Hogwarts threw a wrench in the plan. Luckily, the accounts stayed open, and he was allowed to invest the money somewhere. He decided to buy the photography studio so he could further his skill on the subject. He had, after all, been practically raised behind a camera lens.
The things I love about this shop are Constant Photo-ops, Location, Working with Kenzie, Good restaurants nearby for lunch breaks, Magic is allowed which is good for photos
The things I despise about this shop are No wifi, unruly "models", Difficult launch, Spooky darkroom, and lulls in sales over the school year
Oh yes, there's something else I need to tell you! The studio will feature a small shop selling beginning photography equipment.
