Some of you know my situation...but I've been searching for a job for a while now. Things haven't really been going well..nothing turning up. I finally decided to just go to the mall and turn in applications...so I got a job at Victoria's Secret. It's retail...and it might be crap...but AT THE MOST...I might have to work there for 2 years. So, I can do it..and maybe it won't be so bad. AT least they don't test on animals..
Neat! You'll get discount bras. ;)b
that's cool for you!!!
but lemme just say i hate victoria's secret. something about that place just drives me kooky.
Congrats on the job! Do you get a discount on their catalog items? They have cute clothes.
I think it's 30% off everything..but I'm not sure. I don't know a whole lot about it yet..she said we also get free stuff (bras, etc) so that we can try them out..We shall see!
I do know that I mightttt have to cut down on my recipe making..we need to cut costs. :ohno:

shit. sweet deal!
Awesome, AC!
I used to really love their stuff. But now I'm a cheap ass and wear boring undies...whatevs.... It would be really cool if you got a discount on the catalog stuff, too. I'm sure your hubby will appreciate the free sexy wear :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*
Why 2 years? Are you guys just there for school?
Congratulations!

haha he already said, "so, now I'll come home and you'll just be lounging around in linnggerrieee." Sillyyyy! Well, Patrick and I have basically switched life positions....he never knew what he wanted to do (career-wise), I always did....now that I've found that I don't want to do that...he's found something! He's going back to school to get a degree in computer science. It will only take him 2 years (probably) since he already has a degree, and has all those pre-reqs done. THEN hopefully he can quickly find a job (we're free to go wherever), and make that C.S. starting salary! Then...I dunno what I'll do! ??? I just hope I can make enough/get enough hours with this job..
SO many changes!
This is definitely a positive thing - so what if it's retail? Besides, they only hire the good looking ones, don't they? 8-)

OBVIOUSLY
Thanks! :)
OK, so I'm gonna send you baked goods, and you can send me free bras, k? ;) ;D
And it's true, VS employees are babes.

Ooooh, we'll see how it all goes! ;)b
Thank you all for helping me to feel more positive about it! It's still feeling questionable, but I love my VW support!!!! :)>>> :)
i don't have pants on.
hawwwt
oh Congrats! I think that seems like it would be a fun job for a while! & the discount & freebies are definetly awsome!!!
i always like how when i go in there the person helping me out is like my new best friend. haha. they're always so nice, no matter how pretty they are, which i always found to be opposite in school, the prettier they are, the less they would want to be nice to me. anyways. i always like how they will go get you a different size or color and that they have one customer at a time to focus on pleasing. it makes me feel good that even though i'm spending a bunch on a really nice bra that will last me years, i know that i really really like it because i've gone through every possibility haha. i dunno. in department stores, no ones there to help. anyways. thats my long explanation why i like victorias secret, even though theres some environmental angst against them. whatevs.
Congrats on your job! It's one of the better retail jobs out there I think. I worked there once but only for about 3 weeks (left for a full time job). The discounts are certainly a nice perk. I love their Ipex bra and think it's the most comfortable bra ever. You know the biggest problem I had working there? The word "panties." I hate that word ;D They would tell me that if a customer is buying a bra, ask them if they want the matching panties. I said, "do I have to say panties, can't I say underwear?"
Congrats on the job - go shop for some black clothes! (Still has to be 95% black, right?)
Black pants, black jacket! I don't really know what the shirt requirements are...or shoes...

I hope I don't have a problem bigger than that! ;)

What's the angst about?
I'm just glad they are on Peta's don't test list....and I'm sure it will be much better than a dept. store.
