A store clerk made my wife cry when she applied for a job, telling her she wasn’t “pretty enough.” This really upset me, so I decided to give the clerk a lesson she wouldn’t forget.
My wife Emma has a passion for fashion and impeccable taste. Despite having worked various jobs, she always dreamed of a career in retail. Recently, she decided to follow this passion. One day, she saw a “Now Hiring” sign at a well-known lingerie store. Excited, she went inside to inquire but was told, “Look, hun, I don’t think you’re pretty enough for this job. NO CHANCE. Don’t even try, okay?” Emma was heartbroken and came home in tears.
Seeing her so devastated made me furious. I contacted my friend Mike, who works in the fashion industry, for help. Together, we devised a plan. I went to the store, pretending to be a customer shopping for lingerie for my wife. The clerk, eager for a sale, became very attentive. After engaging her for a while, I stepped out to call Mike.
Mike arrived and introduced himself as a talent scout. He evaluated the clerk and then dismissed her, saying, “I don’t think you quite fit what we’re looking for.” He turned to me, suggesting I could be a model and praised my wife, Emma, as perfect for a campaign. The clerk was visibly shocked.
Later, Emma met with Mike, and although she didn’t pursue modeling, the experience greatly boosted her confidence. A week later, we walked past the store, Emma holding her head high. Sometimes, the best revenge is lifting up the ones you love and helping them see their true worth.
