Retail.....


Ughh sorry its been a while since my last post but I have been super busy! I am home from college for break and am working in retail!!! I sell shoes at a local shoe store, family owned business.


RETAIL + CHRISTMAS = HELL


People come into the store expecting we have EVERYTHING but in fact all the popular things are limited because of the season helloooo don't you think people would learn that? NOPE, its two days until Christmas and people are still coming in. I don't blame them, I too am doing last minute shopping BUT I am NOT a mean person when shopping!


I have worked the past three days in a row and people are getting more and more upset over little things or things that they should know.


Here are a couple examples:


Scene One: Customer came in with her son to get snow boots, its December 22nd!!! We have had 3 snowstorms so far and EVERYONE has gotten all the good snow boots. Her son has the BIGGEST feet, size 14!!! I show her what we have and she says to give her SPACE to try them on. So I leave her alone and talk to my fellow clerk, I go back to check and she says "I"M FINE" really loud. So I again walk away and start talking again, out of no where in she screams and I mean screams: "DOES ANYONE WORK IN THIS PLACE?" omg I wanted to bitch slap her, HELLLOOOO I asked you twice if you needed help and you refused!


Scene Two: Customer comes in looking for the most popular thing we sell: UGGS! Everyone wants Uggs aka we don't have many. She wanted a size 10 aka the most popular men's size, and I had to give her the bad news. And she says "I can't FUCKING believe YOU, I came all the way here to get a pair of UGGS and you don't have them! YOU NEVER HAVE WHAT I WANT AND I COME HERE ALL THE TIME! Why the fuck do you call this a shoe store and NEVER have what I want?" Ok a couple things wrong with her statement, first if you wanted Uggs for Christmas you should have gotten them sooner because they are a HOT item this season, second DONT GET LOUD OR SWEAR AT ME, I DON'T ORDER THE INVENTORY, third if we never have what you want why do you keep coming back? UGHHHHH haha no pun intended


Scene Three: It is super busy, each clerk is with at LEAST 4 customers at a time. A women is sitting in a chair on the sales floor. Then I hear "CAN I GET SOME HELP HERE, I HAVE BEEN SITTING HERE FOR AN HOUR!" Well first of all when you need help why don't you go find someone that can help you, we can't read minds. Second if we were even suppose to guess you needed help you shouldn't sit and look like your waiting for someone you came with.


There are sooo many stories from the last three days its not funny. So note to last minute Christmas shoppers PLEASE be nice to the sales people because we are doing ALL we can and try our hardest. We can't control the inventory or anything else! So if you want something soo bad that if you don't have it for Christmas it with ruin it, BUY IT EARLY! NOT TWO DAYS BEFORE CHRISTMAS


Thats all for now

Lets Talk a Little College Fashion

As a student at Keene State, I am immersed in everything college. I LOVE to follow fashion and walking around campus can be very interesting sometimes.





First we have the Denim skirt and leggings, and this look seems to ALWAYS be worn by people with little extra well.... flub. JUST FYI NO DENIM SKIRT AND LEGGINGS FOR ANYONE PLEASEEEEE! That is so over with and people just seem to still wear it, GROSS! Now don't get rid of the leggings because they are still in style, just wear it with an over sized bohemian shirt NOT denim skirts!









Next we have the new college grunge girl look that has taken over every college campus in the Northeast. It is the black Northface wearing, Pink sweatpant wearing, Ugg wearing , and messy bun wearing girl! EWW This fashion is ok for an 8am class but after that PLEASE NO!! It is sooo unclassy and gross! You don't have to throw out the Northface, or the Pink sweatpants, or the Uggs but don't wear them together. Try some nice skinny jeans, with a plaid button-down (VERY popular right now) and the Uggs!







Lastly we have as I like to call it: "the nest"! I have seen more and more of these as of late, and well they are just nasty! I'm sorry but this whole Justin Timberlake thing has past, and its time to give it up! It just makes you look bad and like you don't care. I have seen some really ratty looking ones too with wholes, like NO, NO, NO, NO! Now unlike the other two fashion this one SHOULD be thrown away! PLEASE
That's all for now:

IN GAGA HEAVEN!!!!


As a HUGE GaGa Monster, many of my friends/followers on twitter have asked me if I could rank her music from the most beloved to the least(there is NO least fav) and I would always give the same answer: I CAN'T but after countless nagging I have decided to give in!
This List Combines both of GaGa's Albums: The Fame and The Fame Monster
1. Bad Romance
2. So Happy I Could Die
3. Speechless
4. LoveGame
5. Pokerface
6. Monster
7. Dance In The Dark
8. Starstruck
9. Alejandro
10.Telephone
11. Teeth
12. Paparazzi
13. Beautiful Dirty Rich
14. Money Honey
15. Eh, Eh (Nothing else I can say)
16. The Fame
17. Just Dance (The reason it is so far down is because it was WAY over played but it will always be a classic)
18. I Like It Rough
19. Boys, Boys, Boys
20. Paper Gansta
21. Disco Heaven
22. Brown Eyes
23. Summerboy
That is how I would rank them but in true honesty I love each and EVERY one and number 23 is JUST as wonderful as number 1!
