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.

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.
