Is there anything I can help you find today?

6 Apr

It’s hard to resist the allure of the mall. Whether you like shopping there or not you’ll end up there somehow. It’s too convenient to have all the diversity of shopping practically gift wrapped for you to glide through seamlessly, or at least that’s the goal. I’ve been working retail for 3 years now, surviving the blood, sweat, and tears that are the holidays.

Everyone has had a bad retail experience. For some it is trying to find that perfect top while dealing with the less than helpful sales associate. For those on the other side it’s trying to convey that we don’t have your top anymore and as far as we’re concerned it doesn’t exist. Move on.


As a shopping addict and mall employee I would like to find a happy medium between shopper and employee where we can understand each other’s difficulties and make the experience much less stressful for all involved, especially the men.

I’m going to post tips each week on things shoppers do to make sales associates hate their lives and things mall employees can do to make them hate their lives less while they are at work.
