"Well, if you were fat maybe I'd help you..."
I went to LANE BRYANT yesterday with my friend. No, you're right, i don't fit any of those clothes but my friend needed some good interview clothes so i was there to help her out. Anyways, I didn't tell her this but this black sales lady was there. She took one good look at me when we came in and she had the nastiest look like "what do you think you're doing here " look. I left the store a couple of times while waiting for my friend to choose and went around the nearer stores in the mall to find some shorts. The second time i went back in, i found a shirt that i thought would look cute on my friend. So I asked the sales lady if they had it in a different color or one without buttons. The lady looked at me with the biggest attitude moving her index finger back and forth and said "Well, if you were fat maybe I'd help you but since your little skinny ass walked in here just to insult us big women, then i don't think i owe you any explanation or help." Then she walked away rolling her eyes! What nerve! I wasn't there to buy stuff for ME, I was there to help my friend pick out some stuff. And she knew that too! She saw us walk in together! She just waited for the right moment when my friend was far enough away so she could insult me like that!!!! What nerve!!! I never chose to be skinny you know. At least they have stores like LANE BRYANT specifically made for heavy set women. They don't have stores for size "0"s and it's really hard to find a size zero that fits you. I literally have to go to the juniors section, a twenty-six year old woman going to the juniors section, to find clothes. You know how hard it is during interviews when they see this tiny girl that looks like ten years old! Plus, men tend to take advantage of you as well! It's not easy being this skinny, and I really wish i could gain more weight! But it's really hard for me. Ask anybody! It's not something i'm proud of, but if big women get treated badly, so do we small skinny women. I shouldn't have been treated that way. That was so not fair!

WOW! just wow...... an here us fat people are suppose to be jolly lol... dont trip ta she was probably on her period or some thing.... any ways did you tell her off?
Naa unta ko ato na time, katilaw gyud cya sa ka isog nako!
that's just rude... if she were my employee i would have her big bootay walking out the door! you should've called the store manager to complain, we're always eager to hear feedback of our employees. "young looking" isn't fun, i feel your pain!
No, actually, i didn't tell her off. My friend was such in a good mood that day that i didn't want to ruin it. I was in too much shock to react and i planned on complaining but kind of brushed it off. I told my friend the next day tho and she called Lane Bryant and complained. I don't know what happened to that lady. I just hope she's not doing it to other people.
Oh my god!!! And I always go to that store too!! Which mall is it? so sorry that happened to you. She must have wanted to get fired or somethn cuz that ain't right
yesterday i had a hard time looking for an XS dress, or any small white dress that would fit me for julianne's dedication, and i ended up buying a skirt and a shirt. that lady is sooo mean! cant believe she did that, especially to u... nobody messes up with my cousins!!!!
You know that has happened to me before except the opposite happened. Some lady said that they didn't have clothes for people of my size. Only skinny people. LOL! the attack of the big people. It's rude either way. I'm just surprised that it happens to skinny people too! WOW!! I thought only people like myself go through that experience. Wow!
hi ate! i wish u were here during dedication. we had no family members to witness, but the friends were there. i edited the blog.
