About Me

Customer Service Queen
I have worked in retail for over ten years now.I don't work in retail because I want to, trust me, working in retail this long makes you hate human beings. I'm a starving artist trying to succeed in my desired career but spend most of my time trying to convince people to buy poorly made clothing they don't need. But it's not all bad. I work with some amazing people who make me laugh constantly and every now and then you get a customer who's a real joy to work with or who acknowledges how hard the staff work. I've started this blog in the hopes that people will read it and maybe see themselves in one of the negative stories and decide to change their ways. I also wanted to write this so that those who are in the trenches with me can laugh along to our shared suffering and hopefully find comfort in that there are people who understand how hard you work and what an unsung hero you are. Screw parenting, working in retail is the hardest job in the world and you rock! I hope you enjoy reading along and please share your thoughts, and my blog! Thank you. Will you need a bag today?
