Abercrombie and FItch
...dominate Caucasian, football-looking, blonde-hair, blue-eyed males; skinny, tall for the males. The look for the women was a tale skinny, blonde-hair, and blue-eyed. And if the worker didn’t fit this look they were fired or never hired. The people that worked in the stock room, where nobody sees them, were mostly Asian-American, Filipino, Mexican, Latino. And the over night team was mostly Mexican or Latino. Im my personal experience shopping at Abercrombie and Fitch has been very pleasant one. And I have been shopping at the store for more than 7 years. After coming to light from a famous song, “Summer Girls by LFO.” Every time I have entered the store they were very kind with me. I was never placed in a situation were I felt discriminated or unwanted like the lawsuit claims they do. When growing up I only heard that Abercrombie and Fitch was only meant for the white Americans. Also, that Abercrombie and Fitch only hires white people because that is the look they want their clothes to portray, the casual classic American lifestyle. That didn’t stop me from buying there clothes, maybe because I was white-washed. And I really didn’t like the wearing the clothes the Hispanics wear. I was raised to believe in what ever I wanted and not to let anyone stop me from doing in what I believed. I started to work at Hollister Co. a side company of Abercrombie and Fitch. Hollister Co. is inspired by the sun of the California soul. Hollister is a laid back lifestyle destination for its guys and girls. They have that laid back attitude which would make it fun to work there. With is beach theme throughout the store and its emo and a mix of alternative music playing in the back ground. And this is what drew me to work there. Hollister has the same policies as in Abercrombie and Fitch. When they approached me to work there, Abercrombie calls it recruiting when they find some one they think has the look to work at Hollister or at Abercrombie and Fitch, I was kind of shocked. I would never think they would ask me to work there. I was kind of nervous when I started because I thought they would be racist and they would pick on me for the color skin I had. But when I started they treated me like any one else there. They didn’t put me somewhere that seemed racist. I worked along White, Blacks, and Asians. I never got a hint that I wasn’t wanted or put in a uncomfortable situation. Every coworker was nice and was pretty cool with me. I even got to know some people out of work. After a few months I transferred to Abercrombie and Fitch because I was getting tired of doing the same thing. When I transferred they opened me with open arms. At Abercrombie and Fitch they let me do whatever I want. I never got a hint of racism at the store or with the workers they had. They treated me with the same respect as any one else. At Abercrombie and Fitch they even have a zero tolerance at the store. Which is if you feel discriminated or sexually harassed while your were working. Y...
