So i went shopping for some new jeans yesterday because all of mine were way to big. Much to my surprise a size 12 fit!!!! Wow i have not fit in a size 12 for almost 13 years. Anyway i was in the lineup to pay for my items and i had put them on the counter. The lady in front of me looked over at my items and obviously seen the size. She had the nerve enough to turn around and look at me up and down and give me a dirty look. It was almost like saying to me are you sure they are going to fit !!!! I can't believe some people. I was very offended but i kept my mouth closed or i probably would have blasted her a good one!

    Uuuugh, so freaking rude. Want to hear something funny/ironic? I've gotten the SAME thing even in small sizes. Example: I am looking through a stack of dress pants at Ann Taylor to find my size (usually in jeans I wear a size 4, but everything is much bigger at Ann Taylor and I'm looking for a 0), an employee asks me what size I am looking for, and I tell her zero, and she looks at my runner's thighs (haha), looks back up at me, and goes to the back room to look. It happens at all sizes!! Don't take it personally, people will ALWAYS, ALWAYS judge, and I am at maintenance and totally fine with my size! haha

    Wow I'm sorry. But, you should be proud and it seems to me as if you still are so f her! People like that - you know people who worry too much about others - usually have insecurities of their own. Way to take the high road!

    Congrats on the other hand, keep up the great work!!!

    Congrats on the size 12!!!

    You know what I would have done? I would have looked HER up and down, rolled my eyes and made a tsking noise....

    Course.. I'm just witchy like that. I have no tolerance for rude people and I'm not afraid to let them know I find them rude.

    She's lucky that it wasn't me coming through the register. I would have ripped her a new one, called the manager and told them what happened. I'm sorry that happened to you! Keep your head up. You are doing amazing work :-)

    First I have to congratulate you on your size 12, way to go! Then I have to say that more people should be like you and have the common sense to keep their lips tightly together when they have nothing nice to say. She has no idea how far you have come, nor did she have the grace to mind her own business......hats off to you for having more class in your little finger than she had in her whole body!:embarassed:

    WTH Sorry dear but I would have had to open my mouth and blasted her. I know it would have made me feel a whole lot better. It never ceases to amaze me how rude people can be to total strangers for no reason. Keep up the great work work you are doing and to hell with people and their snobbish attitudes.

    Way to go on the size 12!

    Here's a different interpretation: She was probably annoyed that you reached in front of her and put your stuff on the counter when it wasn't your turn yet. JMO, but I hate when people get in my personal space like that. I give people the "up and down" when they overstep personal space boundaries / queue norms all the time... and it has nothing to do with size.

    Anyway, fitting into the 12 is awesome. Good work.

    Was it the woman tending the cash register or just a woman in line in front of you?

    It was the woman in front of me, if it had of been the person at the register i probably would of said forget it and walked out. It was a very long line and a large counter, everyone had their stuff up there so it couldn't of been because it wasn't my turn.
