franciscanheart Posted June 16, 2005 Posted June 16, 2005 Neimans.... I've got a funny story about this actually When I was a little kid my granny used to take me shopping at a big store she called 'Neimans'. She always let me walk around the store with her and I was always very patient. Whenever we would get our shoes on to go somewhere I would ask where we were going. She would always tell me Neimans and I would always be very happy to be going to such a place. I loved Neimans. One day, when I was about five or six, we took one of our usual trips down to Neimans. As we pulled into the parking lot I looked up at the blue and white sign I was so used to seeing and read: Good... will. My granny said she knew then we needed to have a talk. My whole family dies when someone tells that story. Anyway.... Neiman Marcus started here in Dallas, The Big D. Since something as big as 'Tom Thumb' was not known by many on phatmass I was wondering who all has heard of and been to a Neiman Marcus. I really like the store and hope to be working for them soon!! So vote, people, vote!!
philothea Posted June 16, 2005 Posted June 16, 2005 Where else could I have bought my Louis Vuitton purse? Ah... hrmn. Well, it's a nice store. I hate to think how much money I must have spent there... (Feeling kind of awkward now.) What department do you want to work in?
Birgitta Noel Posted June 16, 2005 Posted June 16, 2005 ROTFL, we always called it Needless Markups! LOL, I said ok cause I can't really aford stuff there, unless it's on sale!

I only buy mints and occasionally make-up from there.
philothea Posted June 16, 2005 Posted June 16, 2005 Yeah, that is a good name. (I was young and foolish! I don't shop like that anymore... not that I want to insult anyone who happens to like shopping for nice things. )
sweetpea316 Posted June 16, 2005 Posted June 16, 2005 Haha... yeah, my best friend and I like to go in there and pretend that we have enough money to buy something. Seriously, we start wheezing like old ladies when we see the price tags.

[right][snapback]613044[/snapback][/right] [/quote] its more fun just to walk around and listen to everyone else. some people talk about it like its target and some are like you and i.... wheezy breezies. (so i like to call them.... wheezing as they breeze by the rest of the tags - as not to cause their lungs too much stress)
franciscanheart Posted June 16, 2005 Author Posted June 16, 2005 [quote name='philothea' date='Jun 15 2005, 11:47 PM']Alrighty then! Prayers there shall be. [right][snapback]613050[/snapback][/right] [/quote] oh thank you so much. i really do appreciate it.
MilesChristi Posted June 16, 2005 Posted June 16, 2005 There's one a few miles away from me, but I don't think I've ever been inside.
IcePrincessKRS Posted June 16, 2005 Posted June 16, 2005 Been in one, never actually shopped there... I'm far too stingy. My sister works in a restaraunt in a mall next door to a Neimans and she said that even (most of) the employees at that location are snobs and treat the other mall employees poorly (her comment "PLEASE! You're not any better than any of the rest of us, you work in a STORE!") Of course, I am sure that doesn't hold true for most/all Niemans employees I think its just the area in which she works (really rather uper class $$$ type of area). Hughey, I will be praying for you and I hope you get that job!
homeschoolmom Posted June 16, 2005 Posted June 16, 2005 We don't have one, but I've heard of it, of course. I know it's in the Macy's, Bloomingdales, etc. class...
