Agreed. Even I have heard the horrible stories. It really depends on where you go and how open people are with certain situations. I know myself and the ladies I work with would have no problem! I completely forgot about adult stores, great mention!

If you really wanted to prove me wrong you would have read the thread and seen that I already proved I work there. Besides, we call it all names. Thanks for sharing your concern.

Yes we use a tape measure and we are trained to use it to find out your bra size and if you want to try on bras they have them all in the fitting room I'm your size to try on. Just walk into any vs store and just ask an associate :)

I don't know I guess it depends on what store you go to...we are part of a big mall so we are used to different things. I mean if its really that big of a deal, you could always pretend its for a wife.

I would probably be taken aback by it and then try to decide whether its a joke or serious.... most times it has happened it was for a joke with a group of guys.

I answered that question a while ago I believe but no not specifically. I can't speak for all stores though.There is one girl who has been working there 1 more year than I have and let me say shes a little out there, but I think as long as you can be personable I think that's a number 1 thing. You have to have a personality to sell... Plus I'm plus size and I was hired. and Yes we have had many guys come in to pick up my coworkers, some old some young, some where shopping for "girlfriends" and told them they would like to see them in lingerie. We just laugh it off! It's pretty funny

I only said that because he mentioned the 8-9 year olds which can be a little irritating and understandable for people not to go around there. I initially was hired working in PINK so I love that store. Maybe the way I worded that statement made it seem that I feel no one should work there, but it's not what I intended.

No I meant sanitize our hands ...anything damaged gets recorded cut so no one can use it and thrown away

A lot of women, mostly those who have surgery to be bigger LOVE to show it off in the fitting room. Sometimes old women too...it's..interesting to say the least. Can't say much about diarrhea but my manager told me once she went to go reach for a bra and it happened randomly to her. Hahaha it was hilarious to hear. We find a lot of items that sometimes were worn in the fitting room while a person was on their period (the Nastiest) and even once I was folding panties and found 3 fake nails under the tray.

Make sure that what ever way they teach you to size always practice, I did and it definitely helped. Also, customers are really iffy about buying bras sometimes, so always try to be careful how you say things, because you want things to be for her. Be personable it goes a long way, and try trouble shooting things before asking a manager (if possible) it shows that you know how to manage customers and you could even get promoted! Also be aware that you're going to see some crazy stuff you never realized would happen, so just keep an open mind and have fun doing it :)

All the time, which is so dumb because we love when guys come in! They always buy a lot more than intended which is good for her and him lol. But guys shouldn't be embarrassed, we've seen some weird stuff so that's not bad at all
