Into town this morning, sorted out depleting finances, popped into new look to get a voucher for a friend and hubby saw a skirt. Told me to try it on and he would buy it for me if it fitted. Not wanting to pass up a good offer like this, proceeded to the changing rooms.
"You can't come in here" said the stick thin girl "you can only come in if you have 5 items."
"Yeah right" says I thinking she is joking.
"No it is company policy, only 5 items in the changing rooms, if you have less or more you can't come in"
Realising she is serious, turned round and told her what I thought of so called company policy and that I will take my money elsewhere - and no didn't lose temper or shout - just did it all politely and put the skirt back on the rack and proceeded to walk away.
Hubby was amused. He did buy the skirt and yes on getting home it does fit, but cannot help but think it is still a stupid policy.
Forgot to get voucher though, will have to send her money instead!
