Walking into a big nice or fancy
store and just at the moment people look at you they start to judge you. From
just a look of one person you know that they have started to judge you based on
the way you look. Many retail stores take the incentive to hire pretty girls or
handsome guys that fit their image. One retail store in particular is Abercrombie
and Fitch seeks the attractive “all American look” which is blue eyes and blond
hair. Also most of the time the retail stores look for people that fit into
their close if they don’t fit they don’t fit in the store. This is good for the
business as far as getting more clientele because people go in to the stores
and see attractive people wearing the logo and they want to look like them so
they buy it but at the same time it is bad because people that feel offended by
the way they look at their employees or their customers they get sued. Hiring
because of looks does cause a lot of problems because it lowers people’s self-esteem
they get mad and it also raised the issue of discrimination and racism. The
retail stores to not discriminate against race, age or gender because that is
wrong and that would just cause more law suits no they find a way to justify
everything they discriminate against your appearance the way you look dress and
talk and that is not illegal according to them which should be because that is
still discriminating against people by just hiring attractive people. The retail stores that hire by looks run into
a bunch of problems because people feel they are being discriminated against
their gender, age, national origin, race or even disabilities. Looking into
catalogs of any sort you always seem to find the people with the “all American look”,
young and thin people that seem so fake at times but they are attractive and
some people look up to them for a variety of reasons it is weird and rare to
see a normal sized girl in a catalog that does not have the “all American look”
some people decide not to sop at stores which advertise certain looks and only
show one race in their catalogs. We should “never judge a book by its cover”
because we do not know anything about their background where they have been or
what hardships that have overcame just to make it that far so we should get to
know the person before we start to judge them. Having a wider variety of employee
in a store would open up the doors to many more customers per store because their
race, gender or age would be represented in the store and they would not feel like
an outcast inside the store while they are shopping. That would be such a
relief for many people to just go in to shop without any worries of what the
people inside the stores are going to think about what you are wearing, how old
you are or your age. Stores should not hire only based on looks.

All About Me
Hello I am a senior at Napa High class of 2013 I am very excited to have made it this far to my senior year
and knowing that I will graduate soon with all my friends that I have made
while in high school or others that I have had since elementary school or middle
school. I have a big family and I love them all. My parents are still together
and have been for almost 26 years I admire them so much because they have cared
for my older sister, younger brother and me. In 2008 my older sister got
married and moved away with her husband, in 2009 she had her first son she was
a proud mother and then a year later she had another son. I always love
reuniting with my family because there is never a dull moment we are always
talking about something or we get up and dance. I believe I have the most
amazing family in the world. During winter break we usually go visit my parents’
hometowns in Michoacán, Mexico. We
go there to visit our family and attend traditional parties and they are really
fun. While we are there time flies by and the part I love the most of being in
Mexico besides the great food is that while I am there I do not use my phone a
lot like I usually do and I do not keep track of time because my clock in
Mexico is the sun and that is fun because being here in Napa we always have to
keep track of time and in my parents town it seems small but there is a lot of people
and we are mostly related to each other in some way. I love to help people; in
the future I plan on becoming a social worker to help kids because I believe if
you help out children at a young age later in the future they will be more
successful and if you teach a child right from wrong there will be less crime. I
also want to build a shelter to have people spend the night if needed and also
supply them with a meal. I will be happy if I just make a change in one person’s
life. I would like to go live in Mexico for a while and visit a few states
and explore the other types of culture there and try their food and also i would like to attend their parties to see the differences and similarities to my culture. I also want to go to Italy and go
site seeing and shopping. I love shopping so I would like to go to Paris, New
York or both if possible and just shop till I drop. I love the color purple and
all similar colors I also love monkeys they are my favorite animal from the
jungle. I believe that we may grow up and be sophisticated most of the time but
at heart we are still kids and that will never change well at least for me.
