Just don't do it

1. Leaving clothing in fitting rooms:

It's beyond rude and disrespectful to leave the unwanted clothing in the dressing rooms. No not leave your clothes on the floor, unhung, in the dressing room. Be kind enough to hang everything neatly and hand it to the nearest associate. It's the politest thing to do.

2. Placing objects where they don't belong:

Closing a store takes a long of time. If a store closes at 9, most associates do not leave until 10. If the store is a messed and filled with misfits, it takes even longer. Associates want to go home just as much as you do during you work shifts. Do us a favor, please. If you do not remember where you picked an item up, ask for help. Someone would be happy to help and appreciate your thoughtfulness.

3. Ignoring our welcome:

Upon every guest entering, a greeting is said. It is rude to ignore it. A simple hello back is all that is needed. Do not have an attitude when we then chose to ignore your calling for help. Be humane, please. Treat us with some respect. We're there for your benefit.

4. Mixing the tags for different prices:

The registers read the tags and all the tags have labels. Do not place a $13 shorts tag on a $25 shirt, it won't work and our managers really do not need to be bothered with it. They have to enough to worry about.

5. Only reading half a sign:

We understand that corporate doesn't do the best job with advertising. We know that our "75 percent off" is in size 104 font and the "up too" is size 12. But, we cannot give you an item for 75 if that's not the proper price. We don't want to argue. Just respect that it's not our fault and we understand your annoyance. It annoys us, too.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
