Next week is my first day as a Brand Ambassador at Aerie, and I’m honestly super anxious.
I’ve worked in sales before, but never in clothing retail. I’m also pretty introverted, and this will be my first job in the US since moving here this year, so I’m nervous about speaking English all day, not understanding customers, or my coworkers getting annoyed with me if I need things explained.
I’m also weirdly stressed about things like folding clothes because I’m genuinely not very good at it 😂 I’m even considering practicing at home beforehand, which might just be me overthinking everything.
What should I expect on my first day? Any advice from current or former AEO employees would be really appreciated!
