23 Confessions Abercrombie & Fitch Employees Won't Tell You

Everyone fears the corporate shoppers.

1. All of our clothes smell like "Fierce" even when we're not at work.

2. We mostly work for the employee discount...

3. ...but then the majority of our wardrobe becomes Abercrombie, which means the majority of our paycheck goes back to Abercrombie as well.

4. When the customers ask us to go to the back, we mostly just take a break or kill time.

5. But when we return, we always act like we searched it up and down.

6. The same mix of techno EDM songs plays nonstop, and we have all the words memorized.

7. Changing floor sets is literally the bane of our existence.

8. Everyone fears and respects corporate shoppers.

9. Wearing flip-flops is acceptable, and wearing them with jeans is encouraged.

10. When someone from higher up comes to visit the store, we go the extra mile to make sure everything is absolutely perfect.

11. We never know what customers are going to leave behind when we have dressing room duty.

12. "Hey, how's it going," is the official way we are suppose to greet customers.

13. When shifts are exceptionally slow, we find clever ways to entertain ourselves in-store.

14. Internally, all employees are called models, but we never use that term when we tell our positions to people that don't work here.

15. Every time we leave the store we have our bags checked, and are required to lift up our pant legs to make sure we aren't stealing merchandise.

16. Being a male greeter means going shirtless, which is extra nerve-wracking.

17. Working on the floor means we become folding experts, and we definitely do it with our laundry at home...

18. ...but we are always well aware that hours of folding could be undone in mere minutes.

19. Even as a seasoned employees, the poses on the bags make no sense to us.

20. Over time, our eyes get use to the abnormally dim lighting in the store...

21. ...which means each time we step outside and see the sun, it burns with the brightness of heaven.

22. We have a bit of a rivalry with the other mall store staples *cough, cough American Eagle.*

23. As time goes on, we form a unique bonds with our fellow co-workers.

Because who else would we be able to share our Abercrombie antics with?
