We've all been to the mall at least once in our lives, and odds are if you've been to the mall you've been in or seen a Spencer's Gifts. Spencer's is known for selling adult products, but, they also sell t-shirts, gag gifts, shot glasses, and other fun items. So what are the employees like? Well here are five misconceptions people have of Spencer's employees.
1. Rebellious
Some people would assume that someone who works in a store like this must not follow all the rules, if that was the case, none of us would have jobs. Spencer's has rules for it's employees to follow just like every other employer, and just like every other employer, if you don't follow the rules you can say goodbye to your job.
2. Immoral
Working at Spencer's, I can tell you this is one-hundred percent false. Every person I work with is a good person and would do anything for someone who needed help. I know for a fact my co-workers would give me the shirts off their backs if I was in need.
3. Atheist/Non-Religious
While everyone who works at Spencer's doesn't have the same views when it comes to religion, and sure, there are some employees who are atheist or non-religious that doesn't apply to all of us. I and several of my co-workers are Christians and were raised going to church.
4. Sex Crazy
While I can't speak for all of my co-workers, I can tell you that I, myself, think sex should be shared between two people who really love each other. We're also not all into the freaky sex stuff.
5. Disappointed parents
"Aren't your parents upset you work at a place like that?" I have been asked this question before and the answer is no. My parents are proud of me for getting a job and making my own money. My dad was even excited because of all the cool band tees and other merchandise we sell. Sure, some people's parents might be a little weird about it, but in the end IT IS A JOB!
Overall, we're just trying to do our jobs, provide good customer service and make our money. We're all good people that are fun to hang out with and talk to. So, next time you see a Spencer's, go in and check out the cool stuff we sell and maybe have a conversation with one of the employees . You'll come to see we're just people, living like and making it fun.
