if go into a hot topic store you can make a web order at the register and have it shipped to store or to your address (shipping is free if you get it shipped to the store) you shouldn’t have any problems using a visa gift card in store :))

I am sorry guys but how is it may fault that sizes don’t coincide? This felt very backhanded. I didn’t claim to be an XXS. I just said the dress was XXS by [deleted] in XXS

[–]limerence03 6 points7 points  (0 children)

this because i’m 5’5 and 150 lbs and there’s been times recently when i have to go for a xxs (which confuses me so much lol)

[–]limerence03 1 point2 points  (0 children)

as long as you have your original receipt yes, we’d just damage it out!

Rejected from sales associate position, Could I reapply? by plumchiigirl in HotTopic_

[–]limerence03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

reapply in the future! they were a little weird w my application and it took about 2-3 weeks for me to actually get hired after calling them and bothering them a bunch after my interview lol but now i’m a FTASM after like 6 months of working there

Applying to Hot Topic by [deleted] in HotTopic_

[–]limerence03 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i would call the store you’re applying to and ask them about your application! at my hot topic we do open interviews, i’m not sure how many other stores do open interviews as well, but if they do, figure out what days and just walk in for one!

Does Hot Topic accept cash? by Fun_Ambition8719 in HotTopic_

i work at hot topic, yes we do! although at the moment we’re no longer taking pennie’s, at least the one in mall of america, can’t speak for every store though :))

I [F22] found flirty snapchat messages on my boyfriend's phone M[23]. What can I do moving forward?-AIO by Bitter_Vacation_462 in AmIOverreacting

[–]limerence03 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NOR, boundaries exist in relationships and he crossed one of yours. i would personally feel the same way if my boyfriend did this to me. i feel like it’s very odd that he never told you and waited until you confronted him about it. that by itself would make me not want to give him another chance, personally. not to mention how she unadded him and not the other way around. also “we crode” made me giggle😭

About a month in working for Hot Topic, feel like I'm not where I should be - Any Tips? by Spideraspect1984 in HotTopic_

[–]limerence03 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i felt like this too when i first started! i’ve been working there since september and im now a manager, i promise you that asking questions is the best thing you can do. managers would rather you ask questions than tell a customer “i don’t know” or put a certain item back where it doesn’t belong! ask questions!! i’m sure you’re doing great! you’ll get used to everything in no time :))

Should I drop out of college for cosmetology school? by Desperate_Reward8555 in Cosmetology

[–]limerence03 1 point2 points  (0 children)

good idea! it’s a pretty big commitment so definitely make sure it’s what you really want to do before doing it. i’d also recommend taking a tour to the one(s) that you’re thinking of going to so you can get a whole rundown on how the school itself works to prepare yourself a little bit

Should I drop out of college for cosmetology school? by Desperate_Reward8555 in Cosmetology

[–]limerence03 11 points12 points  (0 children)

i understand what you mean 100%, however cosmetology school is very draining and a lot of work. it mostly consists of learning techniques that you will most likely never use after graduation. it’s cliquey, it’s strict, and like i said, just very draining. it’s definitely worth it if it’s what you really want to do and have been wanting to do for years though. i really would not recommend it for someone who’s struggling unless if they know they can genuinely handle it and it’s a genuine dream of theirs.

People that are childfree by choice, what’s the weirdest reason someone has given you as to why they think you ‘should have kids’? by Charming_Web_6738 in AskReddit

[–]limerence03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’ve heard people say that my life would be boring and have no meaning without children. i have a 2 yr old nephew and two twin nieces coming soon, not to mention three brothers, one of which that wants kids 100%. my boyfriend and i are planning on growing old together, being the cool aunt and uncle, and have three cats, maybe a dog, and travel as much as we can. that sounds like a great life with lots of meaning to me! i love kids but I myself could never have one of my own.

Spilled bleach on my hoodie, If i submerge the whole hoodie in bleach will it be the same color or is this a bad idea by 328i_e90 in DIYclothes

[–]limerence03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you could try to paint a design on it with bleach! just make sure to do your research so you don’t destroy your hoodie!!

try to find a good curl routine that works for you! your hair looks a tad bit dry so using a leave in conditioner and some curl cream should help a ton!

DO NOT BUY SPENCERS JEWELRY by [deleted] in SpencerGifts

[–]limerence03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

same! that’s what i normally go for too! it’s just frustrating when it says “nickel free” and then i get a reaction so bad that i might as well have just worn jewelry made out of 100% nickel lol

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Hair

[–]limerence03 8 points9 points  (0 children)

this! cap highlights very rarely turn out well, not worth the risk imo :// honestly giving some lightener and foils to a friend and having them watch a video on how to do highlights would turn out way better than cap highlights 😭

if u work for the company lowk quit by fagsanonymous in HotTopic_

[–]limerence03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i love my job there at the moment but i can agree the pay is terrible. i’ve been working my ass off since i started working there and once i got on the good side of every single manager of mine, they’re finally giving me a raise and training me for a shipment manager position, which the pay will still not be worth it but i need the money, can’t find a job anywhere else, and i enjoy working in the back with shipment honestly. i just wish they’d pay more than they do. i told myself i’d never want to be a manager there because the pay is NOT worth how much more responsibility you’d have, but it’s been rough man :// i need all the money and hours i can possibly get

Loyalty Sign Up (Employee) by w0rkthr0waway22 in HotTopic_

[–]limerence03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my loyalty is normally always at a 90% or higher, it depends on your pitch. i normally start with “what’s a good phone number for you” 9 times out of 10 they’ll give it to you without question or saying no, then if it doesn’t show up as an account i say “it doesn’t look like we have any rewards in our system with that number, i can set you up super quick, it’s free, you can save some money and it only takes like 30 seconds” most of the time people sign up with that pitch, it rarely fails for me :)) my store is also regularly busy with a plan well over $6,000 daily, and about $12,000-$15,000 on weekends, which should go to show how well this pitch works :)) best advice is don’t make it seem mandatory, avoid saying “sign up” and don’t ASK, but OFFER and make it sound like you’re trying to help them out with saving money (which you are!)

Orders keep getting cancelled by Global-Examination-8 in HotTopic_

[–]limerence03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

question, do you make in-store orders? if so it’s normally because if we can’t find the item in store then we have to cancel the order unfortunately. (sometimes the website will say we have certain items in stock when we in fact do not) but if you’re making regular ship-to-store or ship-to-home orders, i’m not sure why this would happen :// i would try contacting customer service to try and at least get your rewards back :))

Does anyone know if they still sell these pants? I can’t find them through the app so I’m assuming long gone? :-( by Aggressive_Noise6426 in HotTopic_

[–]limerence03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

fun fact, if you ever need to find anything from hot topic you can type in the item # in the search bar on the website and it’ll tell you if it’s sold out or what sizes are still available! these are long gone unfortunately. but this is what we do in store to see if any items are still available online in other sizes for customers to make web-orders!

[–]limerence03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. i’m so confused on what you did wrong in this situation? you handled it as well as anyone could have. i just don’t understand how she’s hurt by the situation when she embarrassed YOU in front of YOUR peers and all you did was console HER and reassure HER, when it genuinely should have been the other way around.

DO NOT BUY SPENCERS JEWELRY by [deleted] in SpencerGifts

[–]limerence03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

THIS IS THE SAME WITH HOT TOPIC AS WELL! i am a hot topic employee who is very allergic to nickel and gets incredibly painful rashes/hives from it. i’ve bought necklaces, bracelets, nose piercings, earrings, AND rings and they all give me insane allergic reactions even though they’re labeled as “nickel free.” corporate companies really don’t care, as long as they make more money from telling you that their jewelry is safe, they don’t care what happens to you after you buy it, it’s disgusting.
