      Thank you!! :) Also I’m super-amused by your Disqus–not sure if that was on purpose re: lulu. ;)

    The last one! Also, please stop telling me how the pants are arranged on the wall. I’m pretty sure 99% of people that hear that have heard it before. Time for a new line, ladies.

      I’ve never really felt like the pants arrangement thing was a super-helpful thing to point out anyway. Meh.

      Bunch of divas — lulu egos outta control folks. Reign it in. Eds are just tryna do their jobs yaknow. Sorry but they probably look at your face before your outfit. And sometimes they don’t remember who you are. Wearing lulu doesn’t mean instant celeb status

        It’s pretty clear that the entire point of this series is to make light of ourselves. If we pointed out our actual reaction to the educators there would not be an ounce of humor in that. If you can’t appreciate the joke, there’s nothing I can do to help you with that. As an aside, a huge part of being a good salesperson is paying attention to your customers and changing up your strategy for different people. That has nothing to do with treating people in lulu like a celeb, that’s just being good at your job.

    These are ALL so true for me! #3 I wore my black out of this world dress and plaid check bundle up scarf to a funeral, #4 thank goodness for free hemming on long sleeve items with no cuffins, the last one, every time my store hires a new educator

      Well done. ;) I wish it were possible to move thumbholes and cuffins (which it may be, but not at a rate I can afford, lol). Mostly I just deal with it because I’m so used to it, but it does get pretty annoying with some things.

    I’m gonna make that fan and bring it with when I go into my store from now on, because they are pretty ridic, and that’s exactly what I think to myself every single time one comes up to me. I actually like to wear pieces I still have from as far back as 2008 that still look fab, cos then they’re like: “Ooohhh”, and I’m like: “yeah-recognize”.

      Haha, yes, sometimes I wish there was a sign I could hold up to say “don’t waste your time on me, trust me I already know whatever you’re going to say”, and wearing lulu is definitely the closest thing, lol.

    Haaaaa! I ADORE these. Suggestions for future lulu problems: How about when Lulu says ‘medium support’ and your boobs punch you in the face when you run. Or how about the STUNNED FACE when one size smaller Lulu you know is TTS fits you.

    Lol-I walked in today wearing a swiftly. I went over to the swiftly wall looking for caspian blue (ss). An educator walks up to me and says, “Have you worn our swiftlys before? I love them for workouts.” I just nodded yes…

    I love the Bitch Please fan. I may need one of those. As always – killing it! I felt like T. Swift with my new gym outfit today…

    Also, sidenote: AA I think you’re doing a FANTASTIC job. I really enjoy reading your posts on what’s coming, as well as what you’ve seen in store personally (and I’m loving your other active wear brand posts as well!). You tell it like it is, and I usually feel the same way (even if I don’t – it usually always brings a smile to my face reading your comments). I feel like a lot your commenters recently have been giving you a lot of unnecessary flack – we all need to lighten up and laugh a little more, shall we? Keep up the good work, girlie! I’m cheering for you, and looking forward to more. Happy Weekend. – L

      Delayed response on my part, but I wanted to be sure to say thanks. :) I think the longer I’m around, the more haters will inevitably come out of the woodwork. But at the end of the day, the positive comments outweigh the bad ones at least 10:1, if not more, so it’s nice to hang my hat on that. :)
