Well Guys...Good start with my Career at Lush handmade Cosmetics.
The first week we were up over 25 % increased our AS by $5.00 and increased the customer conversion by over 10%!!!! Go NorthPark!
Due to this I am guessing....I was chosen to represent the North American Team at the Lush international Meeting September 1-5!!! How exciting can that be. I have no idea what to expect at all but I will give you details as I know them. I had to share in my success!

Three weeks into the new...

Yes it has been three weeks into the new job at Lush Handmade cosmetic.
Boy do I have a story to tell.
We get to LA and get to the Hotel at MIDNIGHT Cali time and find out we have no reservation, and NO open rooms....what?
OMG, we are so tired.
Finally they tell us to head four spots down to a Motel...okay I can do a motel for one night and it will not be that big of a deal.
Well....so I thought! They have ONE room that just opened up at the last minute, wait it is midnight.
There is this woman that is picking at a Palm tree and comes over to the desk man and says "you own me 15$" the man replies "I already paid you for the other night".
Four Texas girls standing at a MOTEL with our luggage and we hear all this.
We are like Oh shit..this is not good....so next we had to wait for the damn room to be cleaned...(last minute) and finally it is cleaned.
I had to take my 60 pound luggage, purse, computer bag and the 8 pound binder up two flights of stairs.
Finally we make it to the one room...for the four of us.
Gigi then looks in the shower and says, guys we need to shower with our shoes on it has black on the ground..,ok we can do that, so I am like that is ok.
Then I walk in there to look at it, and decided to look at the toilet. I lift the lift the lid, and in my ghetto voice, neck rolls and all HELL NO...there is pee everywhere.....
Oh wait it gets better.
So Gigi is like ok...grabs the covers and a BUG comes out....then she says oh hell no and walk out. By this time it is already 1:30am. I have to call and just be straight blunt with the lady and tell her we are not staying here, so find another place to stay. She replies with "Welcome to LA".........LORD..What the heck
so we are off again in the middle of the night walking down Ocean Blvd, in Santa Monica, Ca carrying our luggage...about three blocks and we get to a Holiday Inn..thank goodness..
OH wait, they will not take the company credit card over the phone, so Gigi had to put it on her personal credit card..this sucks.
So after this night we all bonded, laughed and were so tired we crashed about 2:30am and head to our first day at work with Lush....what a night it was.
