12 Objects That Mean More To Bath & Body Works Employees

It's not only about the soap.

12 Objects That Mean More To Bath & Body Works Employees
Glass Door

As a Bath & Body Works employee, there are many objects that I now look at differently as a result of my time with the company. Based off of what I have gathered from my experiences, I came up with a list of objects that mean something more to Bath & Body Works employees. Thanks to what we, as employees, have learned on the job, these objects have grown on us and hold an important place in our lives.

1. Aprons

Contrary to popular belief, aprons are not just for cooking. This is the staple of our dress code; you don't go on the floor without an apron on.

2. White Shirts

The only reason our closets house numerous white tees is because they are on the dress code.

3. Black Shirts

On the rare occasion when black shirts are on the dress code, I pull my shirt out of the closet with much excitement. It's a blessing, really.

4. Scent Testing Papers

The bane of our existence. They can be found in any and every crevice of the store, folded accordion style or even in stacks. Contest to see who can collect the most?

5. Band-Aids

For cardboard cuts, not paper cuts.

6. Shoe Racks or Caddies

Whether your store has a shoe rack, lockers or cubbies of some sort, this object is without a doubt important. It holds our lives until we have completed our shift.

7. Hand Sanitizers

Starting a shift? Sanitize. Going on break? Sanitize. Time to leave? Sanitize. Any moment ever? Sanitize. It is the solution.

8. Boxes

What was that you said? 205 boxes of shipment? Sounds like that's my workout today.

9. Box Cutters

Before this job, box cutters meant nothing. Now, they mean everything.

10. Name Tags

Our identity. Except when we bend over and the tag falls out.

11. Our Current Products

At some point in everyone's career, we develop a passion for our products. This explains why I am able to find every product ever made throughout my house.

12. Our Throwback Products

We cannot forget about the times we spend reminiscing with coworkers and customers about the classics. Our products have their own stories. They mean something more.

Christmas tree
Librarian Lavender

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
