      And J Crew have outlets.

      I'm glad I'm not in retail or merchandising. It's really hard.

      i suppose just from personal experience with that fast fashion company where i used to work..

      their role with merchandising is that, they have their priority products which are produced at a greater margin that'll never go into sale, or at the very least the remnants of that season. their usually low in quantity but has a higher price point. and there's stuff where they plan for and receive that are absolutely huge in quantity. when you've received something like that, you immediately know that it'll go into sale without a doubt.

      at the same time, with planning. their reorder point/ replenishment seems off to me and unpredictable. i'm not sure if that's because the australian market is on opposite ends to the rest of the world. but i can only speak for the australian seasons and not european/us seasons

        Personally, if I bought an item full price and it went on sale the next day I wouldn't care and wouldn't contact the retailer asking for a refund/credit.  I paid full price because I thought the thing was worth what I paid.

                      @Seul I’m gonna have to put up or shut up regarding heavy IH gear in the heat. It’s currently 95F here with 70% humidity and I have the 888 xhsib arriving tomorrow.  😉

                      Maybe so. Maybe not

                        The world is full of d-bags. Took my son to McDonald's yesterday and some dude who looked like he was on steroids was at the counter returning a burger, which I presume had a hair on it, or some such thing. He wanted a new one made for him, which is fair, but then proceeds to tell the cashier, "what are you gonna do for me since i've been inconvenienced? A chocolate shake would be fair. I mean, I'm no cheapskate; i've got $3000 in the bank and $100 cash on me right now."

                        I don't get how some people are so entitled. He says he's not a cheapskate but then asks for a free shake which is the very definition of being a cheapskate. And he takes it out on the cashier who's not making enough money to put up with his crap.  ::)

                          Working at McDonald’s is something every young person should do. It makes you quite driven to do (or not do) whatever is needed to not work there ever again.

                                    @UnTucked  you are 100% allowed to ask her to keep it down. If you want to of course. But that’s a breach of etiquette on her part. Let em tip bro.

                                    Maybe so. Maybe not

                                        Read an article about torchys being awesome. But a long wait can ruin anything.

                                          The one at Basse has gottn hit or miss on food quality. I talked to the manager about it Tuesday after sending the queso back 3 times for being cold. and the Brushfire taco’s NOT having any jalepeno’s on them. 🤦

                                          one more trip like the last and i’m done.
