Almost A Year Ago I Got My "dream Job" Of Working At Sephora. I Had Already Began Reading A Lot Of Rad

Almost a year ago I got my "dream job" of working at Sephora. I had already began reading a lot of rad fem literature by the time I got there.

10 years ago I would have loved it but by the time I was working there I was already aware of the dystopian nightmare it really is.

It was one thing to help someone find a basic skin care routine to calm their skin but when we had to push certain products.

To make the sales goals you had to look at a woman's face and slowly ask and press them on their flaws and suggest the magic product that would help them.

I did it for one day, I killed it on the sales floor. I could not sleep that night and had already began drafting my resignation letter.

When I grew up, drag full face glam was popular but now it was the "no makeup, clean girl" look and I had to help girl find foundations that would hide their flaws.

Their flaws were either

1. Natural human function of the largest organ we have

2. Cover up the damage they were continuing to do with all the latest products.

I pleaded with parents to not buy little girls skin care than I knew would destroy their skin barriers. But isn't that the point? So when they grow up they need products to help cover up or heal the damage they have caused.

They paid so little I couldn't even afford most of the products in the store even with my discount.

We would have to clap when told we made the company billions of dollars in profits.

It really pushed home the oppressive costume that is "femininity".

I have a lot more to say but I'm droning now.

But I have to say I understand now why people do not want to engage with radical feminism because it "ruins" everything. Everywhere you look you realize the psyops being ran to keep woman consuming and enjoying their bonds.
