Sarah Jessica Parker was recently quoted by E! News saying that if Carrie Bradshaw, her Sex and The City character, were around in this recession, she would "end up in a hospital". I think that many shopaholics can relate to this statement.
I am a waitress, student, and a shopaholic. These three things do not go well together. The recession has had a big impact on everything. Casual dining has suffered, and it so happens that the restaurant I work for is considered casual dining. It is rare to have a wait for tables lately at work. Less tables equals less pairs of shoes, which has been hard for me to deal with.
During this recession, it seems almost impossible to go to school full time, work five days a week, and pay down credit card debt. As I write this in class, I have to rush to work now. The five hours I'm about to work will probably buy me a new pair of shoes. More to come...
This is great. So funny, and unfortunately so true.
