You Know You Worked at Old Navy If
My first job was at Old Navy. It was a great job, I worked with great people, made a decent amount of money for a first job, and had lots of “real world” experience. I also had a lot of crazy things happen to me, some of which are listed here.
You’ve been told at least once that “You don’t get paid to pee!”
You’re on a personal level with the crazy lady from wherever who always spends hours trying on clearance clothes
You had to clean up other peoples “messes” in the bathroom
Michael Jackson is the sound track to your work day
The lyrics “life’s like a jumprope up down up down up down up down yahhh,” “Thats not my name,” “Whats that on your head? A Wigggg” and many others have a special meaning to you
You see people wearing an item of clothing from Old Navy, and you actually notice
When you ask people if they want to open an old navy card, your voice suddenly becomes higher and nicer
You’ve gone to Starbucks next door during your hour lunch and just sat.
You’ve answered the phone and gotten hung up on before you finished saying “thanks for calling old navy fort collins where you can save 10% off your purchase if you donate two or more school items this is ____ how can i help you?”
You know what Non-Dom, Dom, shop 1,2,3,4, feature, POS, RAD, closing, faceouts, fixtures, T-stands and bakers racks mean/are.
you’ve forgotten your locker combo more than 3 times
you’ve read the magazines in the break room at least 6 times each
you’ve ever gotten annoyed with a new person because they don’t put the clothes the right way on the hanger. its like a question mark. is it really that hard?
You work with some of the cooolest people in the country
You’ve been in the fitting room, and had a customer open their door, but hide their body behind it because there not wearing any pants, but somehow they forgot that the mirror is right behind there…..
you’ve laughed til you cry at something that happens while your closing, even when its not that funny
you’ve seen all the movies in the breakroom, and 13 going on 30 still hasn’t gotten old
you’ve tried to watch Clueless on your break, but realized it still isn’t in the case
you’ve dealt with some nasty “washed and worn” returns
you’ve been yelled at by a customer for something thats not your fault
the customer is leaving and says “thank you ____” and for a second you wonder how they know your name
people ask you on a daily basis if you didn’t have fun before you started working at old navy, and you pretend its still funny (the name tags say “having fun since…..”)
when you ask customers if they found everything all right, they respond “oh more than i was looking for ” or something like it, and you pretend like you’ve also never heard that one
you’ve rang a transaction with a receipt 3 feet or longer that was all price kills
you own a boys size super hero tee
you’ve wondered who designs some of our clothes
you show up for work and realize everything your wearing is from old navy, and two other girls are wearing the same shirt as you
you recently discovered that “Logoland” is where all of the stuff with the old navy logo on it is located
