Interview at Staples tomorrow..tips?


I have an interview tomorrow at Staples and I'm kinda nervous :S. What kind questions will they ask me (beyond the obvious "why do you wanna work here" types) and should I bring my resume? I already submitted my resume when I applied online but I'm not sure if I should bring another copy. I'm just wondering if they are gonna ask me some crazy questions that test what I would do in certain situations with customers. My friend interviewed at Circuit City and they asked him a ton of those situational type questions for more than an hour! I applied to a PC tech position and I have confidence that I'm very well suited for the job but the problem is that I gotta go back to college in 2 months...how should I counter this negative aspect? Thanks for reading and any tips are greatly appreciated!

Okay, I just got hired a couple days ago. Easy interview: they ask you about schooling, life goals, and the like. Then they go over policies and you watch 4-5 boring videos going over policies and safety and such. It takes about 4-5 hours depending on the manager. I applied as a Store Associate, so it might be different.
Wear an empty pocket protector and tell them you are "full of potential"
dress nice... don't talk tooo much.
Thing about Staples and big places like that is there's a lot of people around you all the time and you need to be prepared for anything. They are very corporate and very PC and they will expect the same out of you.
I applied at Toys R Us once and we had to do skits in front of the rest of the people applying so I walked out. I can't handle that stuff. I guess we had to do them because we were going to be around kids? It was idiotic like I was back in drama class scrounging for a half of a credit to graduate.
