Hollister Co. RULES!!!

bennybergs13 by bennybergs13 · Feb 10, 2002 · 189 views · Journal

NOT!!! If you dudes dont know, Hollister is a clothing store where i work at. THis store has to be so perfect its sick. You know how usually the store is people oriented well this store is all about its image and how every hanger has to be spaced perfectly, all the tags have to be tucked in, all the size stickers have to be lined up, and how everything gets folded perfectly-SICK!

Its even worse when only three people in the store actually work, like me, and the rest are teenie boppers flirting with the managers.

Well, now i have to go there at midnight til 7:30am to make sure its perfect in the morning and have to do it all over again.... how can they put so much energy into that store when they know its going to get messed up a second the doors open! COME ON PEOPLE, COMMON SENSE!

JUST NEEDING TO VENT...

Our SALE room look like AFGHANISTAN! Girls are such pigs! BBBBBOOOOOOOOOO to all girls!

punkprincess #2 punkprincessOG 2001

wow! the midnight shift stinks!!!! I remember when i werked at gap how stupid things were... and customers! how annoying are they?! lol

bennybergs13 #2.1 bennybergs13OG 2001

All i can say is retail is very irritating...i went to go apply to the gap cause i'm getting fed up with Hollister...and when i told the manager at the Gap that i work at Hollister he said " i feel your pain" ... I think hollister is the only store besides Abercrombie and Fitch that have an overnight every week!! BLAH!

tpham #2.1.1 tphamOG 2001

over night work ? ughh.. my goodness.. i remember when i worked at the gap and had to stay until 3am .. it was fun going into the mall hallways and taking a nap... claiming to mysteriously take out trash..for 30 minutes...nevertheless i got fired within 3 days.. haha...

punkprincess #2.1.1.1 punkprincessOG 2001

lol ty, that was so funny when we both worked there... it was like i saw you one day... then you never showed up again hahaha so funny

bennybergs13 #2.1.1.2 bennybergs13OG 2001

Yea its cool walking around the mall when no one is there....but the erie thing is, that there are at least two doors at the mall(Garden State PLaza) i work at, that are open 24/7... I mean if a crazed worker like magnum wanted to seek revenge he could just walk right in at 4am and blow the mall up!

I never worked in retail, but i did have tech support job that i used to work from like 2 to like 3 or 4 in the morning... i hated it... i was driving down rt 10 at like 4 in the morning EVERY week... I got pulled over by bored cops ALL the time... i think i got like 20 warnings just while i was working at that job. But... i got to play video games and basketball in the tech room, that was kinda cool... so whatever... but, thats gotta stink, cleaning up after all those people, i feel bad when im shopping in store like.. i cant fold clothes, but i TRY.. i swear i do... but im sure you guys have to do it again anyways...

bennybergs13 #3.1 bennybergs13OG 2001

YEA YEA MR. "ROCK SUPASTAR"...well i guess its hard to fold clothes without those stupid folding boards!

rocksupastar #3.1.1 rocksupastarFounder

bennybergs13 #3.1.1.2 bennybergs13OG 2001

Youknow if you see pennies on the floor inside or outside a store that means that the store is easy to steal from...the "stealer leaves them to let their friends know...

tpham tphamOG 2001

really...??? hmm...i never did that...

bennybergs13 bennybergs13OG 2001

OOOOOOOOOOOO I'M TELLING

tpham tphamOG 2001

i'd usually leave a hundred dollars behind.. not pennies.. the cheap theives would leave pennies.. but us high class robbers.. we left a trail of hundreds.

thefunkyfresh thefunkyfreshFounder

why wouldn't you just pay for the stuff then? you would be losing less money most likely

bennybergs13 bennybergs13OG 2001

this is true...common mathmatical equation

tpham tphamOG 2001

hmm... i don't know.. well actually i do know.. the reason behind our procedure is actually three fold ... 1 - it still takes money away from corporate america 2 - some poor bum can find the c-note on the ground and be happy 3 - shut up !

bennybergs13 bennybergs13OG 2001 tpham

rocksupastar #4.1 rocksupastarFounder

hahaha, you worked in retail?!?!!? where?!

magnum #4.1.1 magnumOG 2001

some retail computer store chain... i was young and needed money. Guess i didnt need it that bad :P

rocksupastar #4.1.1.1 rocksupastarFounder

ha, my friend worked at the the wiz.. he was SOO good at it.. cause he could talk anyone into buying ANYTHING... he is a really good salesman, but he had to move, they even wanted him to stay, they were gonna give him a raise and everything!!! But he hated the job too, like you said.. it just was cause he needed money, and he got discounts on stero equipment and tv's and junk

thefunkyfresh #5 thefunkyfreshFounder

i've never even heard of this store.

g.f.s.rocks #5.1 g.f.s.rocksOG 2001

You mean you have never heard of Hollister Co. before?

bennybergs13 #5.2 bennybergs13OG 2001

There is only about 5 in the US and the one i work at is the biggest one (go me). The store is a branch of Abercrombie and Fitch, but its cheaper and is more of a surfer vibe. Our whole theme is based on Califorina, when you pass by it, it looks like a beach house. The weird thing is that it was originated in Ohio-yet they are all about Cali.

thefunkyfresh #5.2.1 thefunkyfreshFounder

oh, sounds like mike's type of store. i'm more of a "jeans/cargo and tee shirt/button down shirt" kinda guy

rocksupastar #5.2.1.1 rocksupastarFounder

no you are more a GAY FAG wear type style... ya know.. tight nsync like shirts and leather pants, you sicko....

thefunkyfresh thefunkyfreshFounder

LOL!!! remember that time you actually tried on those leather pants in the gap? that was so funny. what's happened to the gap anyway? i used to be able to get stuff there, now it's turned into a women's/gay men's store, all the men's jeans are really tight and flared... so gay

rocksupastar rocksupastarFounder

matt.. admit it.. you LIKE tight pants... it makes you feel... pretty... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

thefunkyfresh thefunkyfreshFounder

rocksupastar rocksupastarFounder

thefunkyfresh thefunkyfreshFounder

hey, YOUUUUUUUUU were the one WEARING leather pants buddy. and its not like anyone forced ya! you were like "hey, should i try these on??!!" and we're all "uh, no, that's not cool. its not even funny as a joke. it's just gay" and yer all "but im a gay. A GAYYYYYYYY!!!!!!" and what do ya do? ya put em on and start pole dancing on the beams all over the store until the manager threw you out and burned the pants.
