The Transfer

I would have been at work right now, but our little Banana Republic is closing and there wasn't enough work to justify me coming to work the last night of us being open. the good news is the company has allowed me to transfer to Old Navy (for the many who didn't know the Gap, Banana Republic, and Old Navy brands are all owned by Gap Inc. which means employees can transfer between the stores). i had a meeting with the Assistant Manager at the store I'm moving to today, a very short meeting. The store is quite a drive from my house but I am happy to still be working with the company, I've quite enjoyed my few months at Banana. I think it will be cool to work with a more accessible brand from now on, though you can usually find fabulous and affordable merchandise in any store if you know how to shop the deals and take advantage of promotions. So I guess I'm saying goodbye to he slow pace and personal experience of Banana Republic and hello to the high traffic world of Old Navy. It will be an adventure! 


Sadly there won't be any place like this left to shop in our city without Banana, its a shame. Many of our customers are very disappointed. 


However, I cant wait to see what Old Navy has in store for me. It will be a completely different environment and a lot of new things to learn but so much fun.
