wtf? you do NOT need to be white. thats b.s. i dont' even know why ppl think that. maybe its the area i live in but there are a lot of ethnic groups there.


im guessing:
A) you have never walked into an A&F and looked around - 99% white people work there
B) googled A&F, lawsuit, and white!

Or seen the Dateline/60minute story on how they only hire white people and how when corporate goes to a store and sees minorities they are told to either fire them or give them stocking jobs, when the store is closed, or to just cut back their hours in general.

Anyone that says there's no problem is apart of the problem.

i defiinitely missed the report. never even heard of it. it probably does happen, i'm not denying that, but for the life of me, i've never seen it in my area.

uhh.. i don't get the A&F and racism.

i've known chinese people, indian people, and black people to work at A&F. they were all a lil on the feminine side tho.

yeah...my friend that has been working there for 6 months said that if you wanna get hired as a black guy...you better act gay.

geez 30%? i thought ud have got a bigger discount - i assume it pays slightly above minimum wage?

good job though, i doubt im beautiful enough (or white) to get a job there!

you get 50% off new styles and this season clothes...but only because they want you to wear them and stay up with the current fashion.. the problem is the new season clothes are SOOO expensive, that even 50% off is a rip off lol. oh well... the things i do for b!tches. 🙁

yes and 30%

Abercrombie is still requiring employees to buy their clothes to wear at work? Huh, would've thought they'd learned from this lawsuit.

That's interesting because every person I know that work(ed) at any fashion store like the Gap, American Eagle, etc were required to wear the clothes. I wonder why this is clearly illegal yet still occuring without consequence?

Is that because those big fat tub of goos can't fit into them? 🙂

and i'm not white! wahhooooo!

u look armenian and/or irianan.... according to the govt we are white!
I've had many iranian friends growing up and some of them looked white except they were hairy like an animal. 😛
 
A&F sucks. my g/f worked there for a couple of months and quit, she hated it. they made her buy tons of clothing to "showcase." then she had to stand around all day folding clothes. woohoo, sounds like a great job.

Congrats on the job man! Retail's cool for college students since it's meaningless. Plus...damn....the girls....hell yeah!

We recently had an A&F open up in Anchorage. Nice looking pants (I dig the beat up look) but damn, do they have to advertise A&F in bright bold letter on every shirt they sell? Every t-shirt..... I will never advertise a brand on me.....LAME!

i'm iranian...not really persian tho.

I think that's still considered Caucasian. Iran is next to the Caucases in the North, so you are probably more "Caucasian" than most people here. 😉
