First, everyone seems to be looking for something exact! Just thought I'd let all you Abercrombie shoppers know that our store isn't all that diverse. We have things here and there that are one of a kind but most of the time you can find something pretty much the exact same with some detailing differences. Please don't act like the only thing we don't have is the only thing you can't live without so we have to check the stockroom and then, eventually other stores to find out if we have your impossible size.
Second, boxes. Yes, we carry gift boxes during the holidays but we can't please everyone. One woman came in a couple of days ago asking for boxes. Being that it was six days from Christmas, our boxes were all gone. She stared at me and asked, "Are you serious?!" No, ma'am, I'm kidding, I'm intentionally trying to piss you off. Of course I AM SERIOUS! "Sorry, we ran out yesterday."She is infuriated at this point. "Well, then what you are using for gifts?"
Using for gifts? Are we obligated to give you free wrapping for everyone of your stupid gifts? If you're shopping here for your spoiled brats then you probably have some money to buy a effing box at Target for a dollar. Christ!
"Bags...." Yes, we are just giving you a shopping bag because that's normally what you get from a store.
So you know what she says. "Well, I am putting these away because these clothes are for gifts." Ok. Why do I care? You are the one who wasted your time shopping here and now you're going to have to waste more time shopping for someone else.
"That's fine." I don't get paid enough to give a shit, ma'am.
She ends up buying half of her crap anyway. Don't threaten me or my job. They most likely won't fire me and even if they do I could go find another minimum wage job somewhere else.
Third, the frantic people. People seem to think that they are always in a hurry to buy something to get all the deals before they run out. The deals usually last always last all day. We don't just say hey, we're gonna stop doing this at 2pm because we want you to trash our store and buy everything you can and then just return it later. Please, stop freaking out.
Love, your Abercrombie Slave.

This is my first post. This is really just a rant, and I am not as pessimistic as I seem, it is also very sarcastic. I just giving you my first hand experiences while working. I am thinking around half of my posts will be like this but I can also give you some Abercrombie pointers and when to come in for the deals and when not to come in. Have fun!
ALSO! I WILL DO ABERCROMBIE AND FITCH CONTESTS! I will give away one of my favorite items when I am feeling generous. Remember, I do work at Abercrombie and Fitch meaning my discount sucks and I am underpaid so the give away items aren't going to be $300 leather jackets.
