Paul Tarasco-Fittock took a risk by quitting his longstanding job as a veterinary nurse to open Geek Store Stuff in early June. When the Chronicle visited the new store in the Harris Arcade on Friday afternoon, July 24, there was a queue of customers waiting to be served. Paul spent 11 years working as a veterinary nurse before putting that all behind him to open the Pokémon shop.
