Following the release of the free promotional recruitment game, America’s Army, which stunningly simulates the training and strategic warfare undertaken by their troops, other major recruiters are set to follow this initiative.
McRonaldos
This fast food giant has developed a comprehensive “training platform”, which is a Virtual Restaurant resplendent with the official motif on the roof “Well Burger Me!” and other amazing examples of attention to detail (trays left on tables, "floor slippery when wet" signs strewn about the place even though there is no actual evidence of mopping and so on).
The game allows potential fast food facilitators to spend a whole shift in the sepulchre like confines, selling cholesterol-laden products to “realistic customers”. The customer AI has been refined several times, to ensure that it accurately portrays the condescending attitude of customers and their subsequent apathetic apologies “sorry but you seem to have given me completely the wrong order”.
Points are accrued for; repeatedly demonstrating a lack of any basic language skills, ensuring that copious amounts of ice are added to any soft drink, whatever the request (this links to the first skill, the prime requisite, so “No ice please” is in fact “Extra Ice, hold the cheese”) and using enough initiative to guarantee that by time you meal is assembled the fries are colder than a Siberian cynic's heart.

This prime electrical retailer has released a simple game on the internet, in order to accurately portray the main purpose of the Salesperson. The “do you want a warranty with that” pest-ometer requires arcade bashing skills akin to the old classic Track and Field. When a customer decides to buy a product the CTRL (symbolic of being in control of the sale)-button has to pressed repeatedly, to build up the amount of “are you sure, it includes new for old”, “we even include insurance” and “peace of mind” mantras, which can be hurled at the customer until he or she has retired to a safe distance. This has been cleverly recreated as Alaska.
