At 16, a friend from school was working at a JCPenny outlet store in a strip mall. He said I should apply there cause they were looking for someone. My buddy worked in the back warehouse area. I was thinking I'd be working back there.

Nope, they put me on Customer Service. Now if you could, picture a super shy ginger kid with near crippling social anxiety and then you have me. I had to wear a forest green rayon button down long sleeve shirt and black tie (clip-on).

So basically I had to do the CS thing with prospective customers, boy I sucked. I tried my best to avoid everybody that came in. Lol And a large amount were Mexicans, so you can imagine how that went. I got used to saying, no hablo espanol.

I lasted 3 days. 😆
