I take back everything

. . bad I ever said about Calvin Klein. THANK YOU, from the bottom of my brafitting heart, for making size 30s. This is so helpful! No bonus points for making them attractive, that's your job.

And another thing . . .

When you call the store and I pick up the phone and answer politely, the correct response to that is NOT barking out the owner's name.

If you identify yourself first and ask for her using a complete sentence, I'm more than pleased to give her the option of speaking with you. But when you're rude like that? It's a 50/50 chance you'll get to speak with her that day, and it won't be within the next ten minutes.

Change

I give back change in this exact order - coins, then bills, then receipt (if they want it).

Why can't everyone do this?

PSA(s)

Women - we all have back fat. Do you enjoy eating food that's not nutritionally necessary to sustain life? Do you not exercise more than one hour a day? Do you not lift weights regularly to keep your body fat below 1%?

Then you have back fat. Deal with it. We all have it. Celebrities have it, little girls have it, athletes have it. And bras need to be tight, that's their whole premise for support.

So put on a Tshirt over your bra and FORGET about your back fat. Everyone else has.

Calvin Klein - long time admirer of your designs. And this new tattoo lace underwear is gorgeous (even though I hate bikini cut panties) BUT my GOD, man, you must send us better hangers for this gossamer thin style. My job is meant to be glamorous - fondling breasts, watching 16 year old girls model clothing for me, shopping for the new style lines for next fall and winter . . not being reduced to tears because I can't keep a pair of undies on one of your lackadaisical hangers! Get with the program!!

Reason #4981 . .

. . that I believe some women can never be happy.

I just had a beautiful girl come into the store to buy things for Vday - picture a 26-27 year old Demi Moore (but wearing far too much perfume).
She was a yummy 32D, flat tummy with a sparkly belly button piercing and a sultry, smoking-47-cigarettes-a-day voice. And she was complaining, yes COMPLAINING the entire time, that her husband was always urging her to buy quote "fun things, because [she] has the build for it".
Listen, this is chick is so hot I am urging her buy to fun things and she does have the build for it.
And yet, that's something to complain about. A hot body and a husband that appreciates it.

Grrrr.

Thanks to all the husbands that came in today to buy cami/panty sets (I won't let them buy bras unless they insist - it's too easy to go wrong) and gift certificates. You all are GREAT - and you're not even leaving it to the very last minute (after all, there's all day tomorrow!)
At least the men don't come in here and complain. They just come in and refuse to make eye contact, while turning beet red. Okay, that's an exaggeration. Half of them want to have us model the lingerie they're considering. Regardless, they're much easier to please than their wives!

My husband thinks I'm a pervert.

I spent lots of last night 'doing research' at this site [with the greatest name in the world].

What? I think that's a completely legit activity - considering my line of work.

Countdown to V-Day - 10 more days!!

So, we sell things made by this company in our store. Check it out! Lots of fun, fun things.

But there is always a customer that doesn't 'get it'. That wants me to 'explain' it.

"What is that used for?"

What should I say? I usually wimp out and start describing each individual product. But there must be some elegant, inoffensive way to communicate the purpose of, for example, the Bedside Box.
