No. She had to wear an ugly uniform and clunky shoes. No kid would dress up
like this just to return home mad as hell a half an hour later. The place
just wasn't run correctly and from what I can see online, it still isn't. At
least the owner's daughter is no longer making frantic posts online about
how they can't get anyone to work there. This is rather how they got Angela.
She went in there to buy something and they begged her to apply. She already
had two friends who had recently started working there. But in the end, none
of them got any hours outside of their first few weeks of work.
