    Default My first sex shop!!

    I went into my local sex shop for the first time tonight!!
    It was amazing
    I was thinking about asking if they where hiring.

    I bought 1 toy and a outfit (Kinda feeling guilty about spending) but ill just
    say its a work thing lol.

    Has anyone worked at a sex shop before
    and had any experiences?
    Hahaha Im just really stoked i went in.

    I've known a couple of people who worked at sex stores and they seemed to enjoy it. You get all kinds of customers there, though, and sometimes have to deal with weirdos. But if you're okay with that, it can be really fun.

    Keep in mind that it's retail, so you probably wouldn't make anywhere near as much as you can make, stripping or camming... but it's a stable job with steady income, and from what I've seen, it's viewed as more "acceptable" to work at a sex store than to be a stripper/camgirl. You should apply and see what happens. : )

    I work in a sex store now I do it mostly for the insurance purposes. Always a plus though when you get to take home a dildo at a super discount.

    I worked at an adult bookstore that had live girls in the back and we did masturbation shows, bondage & dom, stripping, etc. I never worked the register, though. I made really good money there because it was on a major roadway , but there were so many more weirdos than there were normal guys/couples, so I had to get out of there. A lot of the customers would come in high as hell, and that was crazy.. but there was always a security guard that watched the shows via camera. But usually they won't hire women around here to work in sex shops unless there is a man also on duty with them. Lots of creepers in sex shops.

    Theres a really awsome one about an hour or so away from me (by car), and the women there love it, they sell outfits, toys dvds, Bondage gear, PVC, stripper shoes, everythin basically, i LOVE that place, i spend at least £300 a time in there, very expensive habbit haha.

    I would imagine working in one would be awsome, get first dibs on new stock etc meet awsome ppl eeeeeh, i might open one when i retire haha

    I went to one with my bf then when I was 17, they didnt ID me, we bought a few things. Then went a year later when I was 18 and they ID'd me! Hahah

    I think its a more relaxed enviroment, but remember its still retail. You''ll have to put items into their place, know what each toy does, whats good for what etc.

    Last time I was there, some creepy single old men where in there. They were asking the sales girl about anal toys...

    I worked at one. It wasn't a porn store, it was an upscale lingerie and toy store. I loved being around all the merchandise (lol) and the discount was cool. But we had a lot of sales goals we had to meet, and they wanted us to put high pressure on the customers, and I'm just not really a high pressure sales person. Also it was interfering with my school schedule. So I ended up leaving and camming instead.

    I would love to work in one. If I HAD to work retail, that would be the job I would choose. Actually.... maybe I'll go drop my resume off at the one down the street. That would be prime. The I could discount stripper clothes and write it off on my taxes....

    I go into my local sex shop often since it's the only place I can find lube that I like that's not like $20. They are always hiring and I'm always tempted to pick up an aapplication but then I think about how spoiled I've been the last few yrs working when I want and not having to answer to someone. I'm not sure if I could work a regular job anymore. Lol.

    I love sex shops - from the little seedy ones, to the specialty ones to the really high end ones!! I also know a few people that work in them..

    I think that the working experience would depend on which type you were in...some are just flat out retail - no difference between that and working at H&M (though you might be more into a discount on a dildo than a handbag!). The ones that have "shows" (peep shows, dungeons, whatever) going on I think would be a little more fun, though I would want to be working the show, not the counter. And the really high end ones would probably be fun - esp if you could get commission!

    You will get wierdos though...or just funny stories! My friend works at a local place, and on her first day, this teeny tiny skinny girl walks in (like, 90lbs, 5ft, TINY), goes straight up to the selection of butt plugs, looks at all of the selection (that ranges from itty bitty to huge semi-dildo size that you can't wrap your hand all the way around) and then turns and asks "Got anything bigger?"
    I take cash, debit or credit. I just don't take shit.
