Why did you apply to a position you knew nothing about?


the description didn't contain that piece of information

Even if I were desperate for a job, I wouldn't apply to a Sex Shop and then moan when they offer me a job because it involves working with Sex Toys.


dude, I thought it was just a normal party

Fair enough. :p:
I'd take it anyway.... it's not like you'll have to demonstrate anything..

that's what i'm thinking... but I'm not sure..
*laughs hysterically*
OP you cannot be serious! How can you think that you wouldnt have to market or sell anything to do with sex when dealing with a sex shop vacancy.

On another note, Ann Summers parties are really tame. It's just about showing the products and recommending them. Mind you, I wouldnt know how you'd do that if you've never used/scared to use a vibrator.

You dont masturbate in front of anyone, just presenting the products and recommending what they are good for during sex etc

Best if you have a very active imagination

Don't worry. I'm sure they'll explain about the items and then you've got to sell them. You won't have to demonstrate or even try them out (you may want to though...:p:)
money is money

just do it.. it might be a laugh
Yes it is true.. that's what Ann Summers parties are. They also sell pasta, mints, straws other house hold items etc. in the shape of willies. It's not a big deal, its just a bit of fun!

When you first become a representative, you have to sit in and 'train' by watching someone else do a couple of parties. Do that, and then if you feel comfortable, keep going, if not, stop.

No offence, but why did you apply to Ann Summers of all places if you're uncomfortable with that kind of thing? You never know what they might ask you to do...
Even if you're desperate for a job, you have to just do what they ask you to.


I agree- you shouldnt have applied if you are unconfortable with that sort of stuff. But do the job anyway untill something better comes along.

basically they will give you porn videos showing you how to demonstrate the sex toys, and you will have to do it infront of a bunch of women desperately wanting cock.

Don't be scared you will get used to it.

OP how old are you and can you get me a job?

Basically you'll be going to someones house so a housewife and her mates can drunk while making dirty jokes, telling innappropruate stories that they'd never normally tell and trying on slaggy ann summers costumes. They look at the sex toys and whatever, but it's not a try before you buy situation, and they sure as hell won't be using anything while you're there (except the costumes, but they likely just be accessorys over clothes coz I wouldn't want to buy second hand spandex).

You're basically a second hand car salesman, except it's easier because they invited you there and get steadily drunker (as so more likely to splurge) as the sales pitch goes on.

You don't have to make up stories about using them, just have the confidence to sell crap to people who don't need it, same as any sales job.

Also, glad to see you took my sex line suggestion from the other thread to heart :p:

Did you not research the job at all? Surely just typing 'Ann Summers Party' into Google would have told you everything you need to know (might have even saved you having to make this thread..?)
