"We want people to bring their true selves to work," H&M's HR department told Out when asked whether there was an official policy protecting their many cute male-looking clerks cashing in their employee discount on the ladies'-labeled side of the store.
Inspired by the entire lack of priority placed at some outlets for the usual dumb rules about "gender-appropriate" apparel or demeanor, here are our six top picks for genderqueer teens' after-school jobs.
> If you're a clothes hound > Work at H&M
> If you're a serious artiste > Work at MAC Cosmetics
> If you're a hippie kid > Work at Ben & Jerry's
> If you're a caffeine addict > Work at Starbucks
> If you're a mall rat > Work at Hot Topic
> If you're a lit geek > Work at Borders
(Beware: It's totally unscientific, based solely on rumor and speculation from our favorite teenage or teen-acting friends. No one important seems to calculate fancy lists of good jobs that pay minimum wage, just the best Fortune 500 type places to toil away.)
What about Macy's, Dillard's, Nordstroms etc.
