My mother works at Banana Republic, and she is always getting talked to about not getting enough people to open up a credit card. She then of course, vents to me, and says there is no way she is going to push a CHILD, (anyone under 30) to get a credit card from that store with its 21 percent interest rate to buy over priced clothes.
(My mother is a designer for Freeman Decorating, based in New Orleans. Of course, after Katrina, there arent any conventions going on, so her job was kind of put on "hold" until the place gets cleaned up and gets back into the swing of things.... she got bored of sitting at home, saw that the Banana was hiring people, so went and got a job so she would not have to sit at home. My Stepfather is a Civil Engineer in New Orleans, so his job security is at a new all time high, and honestly, my mother could afford to stay at home. Which is why she doesnt mind mouting off to the management about how she IS NOT GOING TO DO THAT! Actually, she does not even buy any clothing at the store, unless it is on SERIOUS markdown, and then she uses her employee discount. I mean, she bought me a shirt originally priced for 85 dollars for 6 BUCKS. I really love my mom!)
