Served ice cold with a dash of snide

I haven't been on in a few days, BAD TIFFY BAD.

I should scold myself, perhaps with some hot water, or melted chocolate. Yes I should definaltey scold myself by jumping into a vat of chocolate, that would be a good punishment...right?


Don't you find it annoying when you walk into a store and the staff give you strange looks?

I swear that the majority of them judge you on your clothes, for instance, the other day I walked into a 'businessy' type store which was fairly espensive, but hey I was there to buy some buisnessy outfit for my buisnessy work. Now, it was a weekend so I obviously wasn't all dressed up, I had some denim shorts on and a grey shirt with a butterfly on it.

Because butterflies are awesome.

As I was browsing through the store, a woman comes up to me, and gives me a sneer and goes "Can I...hep you?" I ignored her obvious sneer and assumed that perhaps her collegan pumped face just couldn't help it so I nodded and replied, "Why yes, I'm looking for a pencil skirt, preferably black and perhaps one with a slit up the side?" She scoffed and said "Perhaps you want to try a different store, we sell business clothes here."

Well DUH why the hell do you think I'm in your shop? I sure as heckery didn't go in there to buy an ice cream or a seedy pornographic fim did I?

I shrugged her off and said, "I'll just look myself." In the end I found a skirt, and it was on one of those clearance racks, for $29.90 which to me is still really expensive for a skirt, but hey with the other ones retailing at $90.oo I figured this would be my best bet. So I bought it to the counter. Where the same girl stared at me as though I was a bum off the street. "Oh..so is that all?" she asks, picking up the skirt as though it was diseased. I gave a nod and handed her a $100 bill. She raised her eyebrow at me, probably assuming I stole it but it was a sale and who was she to turn down a customer?

I walked out of the store, and proceeded to go into another store, since I was going to buy my friend a birthday present, now this store was more suited to what I was wearing, Jay-Jays. Pretty much has all sorts of stuff there, can't really describe the fashion since I am far from a fashionista. I wear feather earings, which I think is the coolest thing since sliced bread.

The attendants there were really kind, asked me how my day was, if I needed any help offered a variety of alternatives when I couldn't find exactly what I was looking for and even ended up giving me a discount because I had bought a few things.


Do people in clothes stores Really judge you by the way you are dressed? really now, I think it's stupid, if I really DID look like a bum and walked into a high class store, then you can all look down on me with your condesending stares and dark eyes heavy with make-up all you want. But no, I am fairly well presented, even if I do have feathers in my ears and butterflies on my shirt, my hair is neat and I don't smell. So get a life.

Has anyone had that happen to them before? Have any of you been looked down upon after walking into a store?
