What was I thinking??? The store I applied for is becoming an urban store, so maybe the box on race I checked might have doomed me too. I should have said I was a combination of Hispanic, African American, and American Indian. Oh well.

I did. The position was in dresses. I guess they didn't want a guy there. When we did inventory, they wouldn't let me count lingerie. I guess they thought I would spend too much time on one rack.

I think that could be considered discrimination! We have a male who manages our lingerie dept!

Well..... Women sale Boxer Shorts! Where is it different if a man sales bra's and panties? For that matter a man could probably even sale thongs! Smile

Heck, Leslie Wexner is a man - he founded Victoria's Secret! It sounds a lot better than Wexner's Secret!

Are you guys serious? I was only kidding. No woman in our town would let a man fit them for a bra. But the lingerie department did have a male manager at one time.

Well, South, I never saw a video. I got a crash course in Bra Fitting, and then they called me a "specialist"!!! When I found out that this newfound title did not involve an increase in pay, I conveniently forgot how to fit bras. I wasn't very good at it anyway....there are TONS of ladies in my town walking around with the wrong bra, thanks to me!

They will probably have an interview with one of your customers and she will be crying saying, "Well Maycylady told me this was the right size!!"
Maybe The Donald will be on too and everyone will get to take home a Donald wig. I wonder if we will get those in again for the holiday??

There was a case in SC where a woman sued Victoria's Secret for damage when a wire came loose from her bra and stabbed her. The case was thrown out, because it took the woman over a year to bring the suit after the fact.
