Shoe shopping for many people is an exciting experience. But the worker on the other side of things may not feel the same way. Here are some things people who sell shoes often experience at work.

1. Nasty Looking Feet

Thank you to all the people who trim there nails and don't have black stuff coming out of their nails.

2. When You Go to the Stockroom to "look."

You know very well that there are no more size eights in that black sandal but you go back to "look" so the customer shuts up.

3. When You See Someone Carrying More Than 5 Shoes.


That's so many shoes, I hope you buy something.

4. When People Mess Up the Display.


If you touch it, at least put it back where you got it from.

5. People Who Insist That They Are a Certain Size.

Every shoe runs differently. Plus, your heel isn't even on the shoe. Going a size up won't kill you.

6. When the Customer Takes Off Their Shoes and Their Feet Smell.

I'm trying my hardest not to inhale any of this awful smell.

7. People Who Complain About the Prices.

I'm literally just an employee. I don't make the prices. Why are you yelling at me that our shoes are expensive? I can't help you. If you want cheap shoes go to Payless.

8. When Customers Expect Us To Know the Price of Every Shoe.

I haven't memorized every shoe price because we have like 80 different pairs, plus there are markdowns and sales every week.

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.
