13 things I learned from working at Harrods:

1.        There is no such thing as richness threshold.

2.        MiddleEasterns cannot say “alcohol” Just cohoo.

3.        MiddleEasterns might explode if they don’t find cocoa dusted almonds.

4.        I can now make ribbons around boxes. It is not hard to be honest…

5.        There is no stupidity threshold:

Case 1

-            What is the difference between the fudges?

-            They are different flavors.

-            But what do you mean? I don’t understand. You need to explain me..

-          Ok Madame. This is the vanilla fudge, this is the strawberry fudge, this is the chocolate fudge, this is the butterscotch fudge, this is the maple and walnut fudge, this is the Christmas pudding fudge, this is the passion fruit fudge….(kill me…kill me now).

Case 2

-            Why do chocolates have different expiry dates?

Do you really care about the rest of the conversation….?

6.        The Black American Express (yes the one you are super duper spender and you get chosen to be offered to use) is heavy. It actually feels precious. It makes you feel soooo special…even though it is that weird looking Chinese’s that you bet would buy 5 pounds of chocolate and make a huge deal out of it.

7.        The really rich people are nice. They don’t bother to show off. I like them.

8.        Japanese are by far the sweetest customers on Earth! Thank you Japan for the excellent manufacturing!

9.        British are rude customers. By nature. There is nothing they can do about it.

10.    I can speak a tiny bit Turkish. Tesekkur ederim Oslem & Sema!

11.    People never pay attention to the store’s announcements. What if the store is empty, displays are being covered, staff is walking away and lights are closing. You need your chocolate and you need it now! Sorry, my rules bitch!

12. If you work for Harrods you are part of the decoration. Consider yourself a monument. Like St.Pauls Cathedral lets say.. So you have to bare with cameras been randomly put into your face because "you 're just so cute!!!!". That's not in my contract!!! I ll break your freaking camera you fool tourist! aaaaaaaagrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

13.    Being polite can save you during hard times. So BE POLITE TO ALL!
