I joined ATRL working for one of the pop girls to monitor activity about her. And it isn’t any one I have been a “stan” for. She’s on here too and some of you have been nasty as hell to her. Just for the record.

How about we discuss my free song/album before you leave

Family Dollar:
There are no security systems apart from the building alarm that would only be triggered after 9 PM and before 9 AM. So you can basically walk out with whatever the **** you want and no one will know unless they saw you or its too big to fit in a purse/your pockets. At least in my store and the other one I've been to, the only cameras are the ones up front by the registers and the safe. You can't see **** in any other part of the store.
We didn't have public restrooms but if you were nice I'd sometimes let people use ours which is back in the stockroom, but if you're a **** you can piss yourself.
Once while there were 3 employees working, someone managed to not only pee in a huge plastic bin, but also ejaculate into a hand towel that was for sale.
Movie Theater:
If you're under 17 and you act like an asshole, you aren't getting into a Rated R movie. But if you don't act like I'm stupid and that I CLEARLY know you're 15, I'll most likely let you into the movie. Unless its Wolf of Wall Street. Leo puts a candle up his bum.....
If you've ever hooked up in a theater before, we can see you from up in the projection booth. Now that we don't have film we don't go up there as much, but anytime teens or couples are hooking up most of the employees will run up there to watch before breaking them up. This old 60 year old manager used to watch the 14 year olds (  )
Also if you ask flat out about going to see another movie when you already watched yours I really couldn't give a ****, but walk around and try and sneak into a theater where you don't even KNOW which movie is playing.... I'll kick you out and threaten to call the cops. (  )
Oh not really a secret but here's a list of things I've found in movie theaters. Used condoms, ***, panties, vodka, needles, chewing tobacco on the floor, A baby in a booster seat, diabetes testing strips, used tampons, a pair of jeans, a pair of dentures, countless credit cards and cash (we usually keep the cash), iPhones (we'll browse through your **** before turning it in).

There are a lot of amazing plans that TDO (management of the Orlando parks) won't allow because they're cheap bastards.
The new magic bands that track people and what not are a gigantic flop and is killing business for the parks. Like a flop on the level of New Coke.
The Kilimajaro Safari attraction at Animal Kingdom could fit the entire Magic Kingdom inside of it.
YES, I'VE SEEN MANY CHARACTERS WITHOUT THEIR HEADS AND IT'S AS DEPRESSING AS YOU'D IMAGINE.

Oh gyal I'm working at Disney World next month. We can have a Cast Member kii 
And the Magicbands are flops. Like, reserving a fastpass 1-2 months ahead... 
They are putting fastpast+s everywhere. Like, the Carousel of ****ing Progress. Really...

It's supposed to be that you have to be 21 or older to buy a ticket for someone underage. I love turning all those little prissy kids down. It's hilarious. They even offer to pay me.

For a lot of cinemas the butter in popcorn isn't butter it's an artificial substance that is terrible for you. Soft drinks served from machines are literally wattered down syrup. 3D glasses used at cinemas and that get left behind are just repacked and reused.

Also at the cinema it's a fight to avoid serving old people.

For some reason, I've assumed all of this.

When I'm going through applications I usually start by sorting them out by ones with a resume and ones without. After that I pull the resume and check their experience and I see how it relates to the position they applied for. There is a such thing as being overqualified. If you have say, Store Manager experience, and you're applying for say a Sales Associate or like a Shift Lead, I'm going to probably either going to toss your application because you could do a lot better, or I might forward it to our District Manager so that you're kept in mind for future store openings. If I have not gathered enough candidates after I go through the paper applications, I go to our online database to start pulling from there. So when you want to apply someone, I suggest seeing if they have a paper application, as online is usually the last place we go (That's if the store does it, a lot of places only do online applications). After I go through all of that, I give the people I pick to MY manager and he narrows it down even more. Then ones he gives me the ones he likes, I call those people and set up interviews with them at a time that fits their schedule. During the interview, I ask basic questions about their experiences, why do they want to work for us, and things like that.
If I really like you, I'll offer you a position on the spot or I'll call you within 24 hours after the interview. It all depends on the current need.
If I'm feeling iffy about you, I might push you through to a second interview with our Store Manager.
If I see no potential...well, you know the rest. |
Is bussy experience or trade resemblance a part of your hiring process.

Attractive people attract people because people like to be around people that look good. Therefor, they are bringing them into the store. |
I feel intimidated when only guys are working at AE. Especially since I only buy underwear from AE

Took me slightly over an hour to thoroughly read this entire thread. WOW is all I can say. 
I don't have any 'secrets' to share about my current job or when I worked at SEARS, but, the stories I read in here about Abercrombie aren't surprising. Such an incredibly superficial establishment. I'm glad I stopped shopping there, even though it wasn't often.

Lol thanks for this! I usually get nachos, milk duds & an icee at the movies. Looks like my snacks of choice are ok, and I never watch 3D movies.
Movie employees are usually cool with me, it's the pre-teen/teen movie goers who are a pain in the ass. They talk all through out the damn movies.

Cineplex uses real butter. They harass us daily telling us how expensive it is to buy it, and thats why they charge extra for it.
The 3D glasses thing is true, but I figured everyone knew this already.
The pop machines though are rarely cleaned out, so the lines are filled with dried up syrup.
Also, you can be banned / removed for sneaking into R rated movies.

My aunt is a teacher and was telling me how she picks one kid in the year to hate on to scare all the other kids.
