We've all been to the mall at least once in our lives, and odds are if you've been to the mall you've been in or seen a Spencer's Gifts. Spencer's is known for selling adult products, but, they also sell t-shirts, gag gifts, shot glasses, and other fun items. So what are the employees like? Well here are five misconceptions people have of Spencer's employees.

1. Rebellious

Some people would assume that someone who works in a store like this must not follow all the rules, if that was the case, none of us would have jobs. Spencer's has rules for it's employees to follow just like every other employer, and just like every other employer, if you don't follow the rules you can say goodbye to your job.

2. Immoral

Working at Spencer's, I can tell you this is one-hundred percent false. Every person I work with is a good person and would do anything for someone who needed help. I know for a fact my co-workers would give me the shirts off their backs if I was in need.

3. Atheist/Non-Religious

While everyone who works at Spencer's doesn't have the same views when it comes to religion, and sure, there are some employees who are atheist or non-religious that doesn't apply to all of us. I and several of my co-workers are Christians and were raised going to church.

4. Sex Crazy

While I can't speak for all of my co-workers, I can tell you that I, myself, think sex should be shared between two people who really love each other. We're also not all into the freaky sex stuff.

5. Disappointed parents

"Aren't your parents upset you work at a place like that?" I have been asked this question before and the answer is no. My parents are proud of me for getting a job and making my own money. My dad was even excited because of all the cool band tees and other merchandise we sell. Sure, some people's parents might be a little weird about it, but in the end IT IS A JOB!

Overall, we're just trying to do our jobs, provide good customer service and make our money. We're all good people that are fun to hang out with and talk to. So, next time you see a Spencer's, go in and check out the cool stuff we sell and maybe have a conversation with one of the employees . You'll come to see we're just people, living like and making it fun.

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.
