"I really don't know what I've done to deserve this."
Deserve what? Aging like every other human every? Not being handed tickets to Japan on a platter? Stuff like this really wears out my sympathy for Pixy.
I haven't checked this thread in awhile and thought I could shed some light on the Victoria's Secret thing. I worked there as a seasonal employee, it was either my first or second job as a teenager so they will hire just about anyone. I remember a couple of overweight girls there, and some not so attractive girls so I don't think that would be an issue.
I don't know how it is at other retail shops like this, but they first called me in for a one on one interview. After that, I got called back within a couple of days to come into a training session.
The first training day, there were about 10-15 girls in the session. We watched a couple of videos about the company, how it started, how to deal with shoplifters and things like that. The whole thing took like 2 or 3 hours? I don't recall any intensive questions. I think there was a little bit of roleplaying but you'd have to be pretty autistic to fail at it.
For the bra measuring, I actually really sucked at this. I got it wrong the first, second and I think a third time. After the third time they just gave up and said it was fine. So I don't know if "failing bra measuring" is a legitimate reason to not get invited back to a 2nd training session because I failed it pretty hard. In case you didn't already know this, don't fucking get measured at Victoria's Secret because they give literally no fucks.
I don't remember anything about the 2nd training session, if there even was one, it's entirely possible they called me about it later rather than announcing a date ahead of time. I also don't remember anyone getting kicked out from the one session. They don't exactly have high standards.
All this happened in pretty reasonable amount of time, like 2 weeks span.
The biggest reasons I can see for Pixy not being invited back are 1. The store is just disorganized and hasn't called her yet, 2. Pixy did something really autistic, had a terrible attitude or was obviously not getting along with the other girls or 3. Pixy smelled really bad.
