No, customer, you are NOT always right.

10 Thoughts All Retail Workers Definitely Have

When I'm home from school, I work at Victoria's Secret, and I've written about working there before, so I thought I'd try and relate to the rest of the retail population with some funny gifs.

1. When a customer has "had a bad day" and decides to take it out on you, and they expect you to be a peach back to them.

2. When a customer says "I came all the way here for this one thing and you don't even have it".

3. When the customer is asking for something crazy and they tell you "You have to give it to me because the customer is already right."

4. Because most normal people have 9-5 Jobs I have no friends when I work full-time.

5. When people try to use me for the discount I'll never give them:

6. When you see that huge group of teenagers come in who probably won't buy anything.

7. When someone asks "why is this so expensive?"

8. On the other hand, I've learned to become really OCD with some of my cleaning habits,

9. I know how to talk to people,

10. and I own enough PINK to last me a month without doing laundry.

There are plenty of things to complain about with any job, but if you work in the right store with the right people, your retail job really could make you WANT to go to bed at 2am after a night closing and WANT to come in to open at 9am or earlier the next morning.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
