An Introduction


The purpose of this blog is two-fold: one, working retail I see a lot of crazy/funny shit, and I feel I need to tell everyone; two, if I don’t find something to do with my time that requires an iota of cognitive thought, I am going to lose my freaking mind. 

Who am I? I am one of the thousands of overeducated, underemployed twenty-somethings.  I have an engineering degree and a JD and I spend my days folding t-shirts at J.Crew.  Now, I want to be clear.  There’s really nothing wrong with working at J.Crew.  They’re a great company to work for, I love their clothes, and I work with some really awesome people.  I also work 40-hour weeks and can barely pay my bills.  I know this describes about half of the country… the half that are lucky enough to have a job, and I really am thankful that I have some money coming in.  I just wish that someone had told me 10 years ago that I would get two degrees and be doing exactly the same thing as I was my senior year of high-school.
