Very quick update: So far, retail = the best ego de-booster ever. I can't answer anyone's questions and I feel dumb. If you're ever in the mood to completely deflate your confidence and self-assurance, work a few shifts at Victoria's Secret, where everyone expects you to know all the answers after four hours of training in a tiny stock room with ten other girls, watching videos with bad, over-exuberant actors. Honestly, how can a person learn effective customer service (and if there's one thing Victoria's Secret is hardcore about, it's their superior customer service) by watching four hours' worth of videos?

Thanks for reading. Come again, and have a good evening!
