Yeah, she saw me come in today and asked me if I had a myer-one card, and said that I spend enough there that I definately need one!

Her and Tess know me quite well lol...

if you going to the myers mac mrs.may then you need a myer one; although be prepared for the statement. I got a letter say that i was now a "gold" member of myer one and then it says how much money you have spend in a quarter or 6 months and i nearly crapped myself and ended up shreading the letter from the partner

 

[Brie]

lol we made it upto gold last year, it actually just expired this month. i love Myer...

 

[miss_bailey]

Im gold! It's kind of embarrasing when you give it in cause I always feel like yep, thats how much money I've spent here in the last six months!

I hate going to MAC at Myer Adelaide. They ALWAYS ignore me. They have NEVER been nice to me or even said hello or smiled, which makes me not want to approach them. Wearing my regular clothes I can't ever get served, (and I take pride in my appearance as anyone here would, making sure I am always in clean, tidy, ironed clothes that match nicely) but today I went in, dressed in a black suit, heels etc. (I'd just been to a job interview) but apparently that wasn't good enough for them either. One girl was just standing around at the counter doing absolutely nothing, but I guess it was beneath her to even say hi. I don't think I want to bother again. I don't want to bother trying at DJs either as I could never get served there either at any counter, even though I worked at DJs up until recently (in fashion, not cosmetics though). Usually it makes me just a bit annoyed and I try not to take it personally as it is possible they were just daydreaming or having a bad day or whatever, but now I just feel upset and I wonder what's wrong with me. Am I not pretty enough for them or something? Do they just take one look at me and decide I'm beneath them? If so, WHY!? I am a nice person, with good manners, intelligence and good hygiene, so what's the problem? *stomps foot... lol*

Thanks.

I think I will save up some more money, lol.
I just want to know why it is that my experiences are consistently like this.

I know it's silly but it makes me feel so insecure about my appearance. Even if they thought I was ugly, wouldn't ugly people need more help with makeup? Lol. I prefer not to see others as ugly anyway, as the more you judge others and think of them in those terms, the uglier you become inside. I still hate the thought of being thought of in that way, even though I know that's not how everybody sees me. I love makeup, but the cultivation of inner beauty is far more important. I've gone off on a tangent, but I'm just having a bad day. Haha.

 

[simplyenchantin]

You're completely right and I totally feel you! A bad day is a bad day but if it's a consistent thing I'd go and say something to the manager to be honest. Then again, that might not be the best idea - I'm just a really confrontational person lol! You should be comfortable going to any counter wearing anything you want, ugly/pretty/whatever it should not matter in the slightest. I wish I was with you so I could give them a piece of my mind!

im in adl. and normally shop at djs becoz i had the same experiance at myer a while back, however i had to go to myers for sugarsweet and now id say id go to either. Ive been sick with the flu and i went in all red and stuffy and gross in my ripped trackies, sneakers and tshirt no makeup on my way to a uni test and i got great servcie form the girls at myer, i b2md for lollyop loving and was accidently charged so i went back to get the mney and i was really worried about them being rude but they were great refuneded the money super quick and were really nice about it... so my mind about myers in adelaide has been changed!!!

 

[metal_romantic]

eh, I'm over it for now. Not worth wasting my time and energy being upset over it. It could be a case of bad timing or whatever. I still think it's very rude but but I'm going to think of it as their loss. One day I'll try again.
For all they knew I could be filthy stinking rich. I'm definitely not, but I could be for all they know!

 

[Superkaz]

I dont think it was a matter of timing. Thats exactly what I said after I went there and saw their crappy team. I was there a fortnight ago.

They disappointed me so much that its really put me off mac. Even if they treated us better coz they thought we'd bring in sales, we want passionate caring people helping us anyways!

 

[sambibabe]

If you had a problem with a store, you could email to MAC. I did it once and got response the next day and my MUAs got the feedback a week after!

 

[Superkaz]

Yeah, I actually just did email Mac and made an account there.
Do many of you guys order from MAC online?

Sorry for the harsh words in my earlier post, the other poster made me angry again.

 

[simplyenchantin]

I ordered the HK Vanity case from MAC as it was an online exclusive.. I put in the order on the weekend and got it on Tuesday, it was fantastic. Though the post dude came at like 8am and I slept through it so I had to go to the p/o later to pick it up heheh.

I think she meant angry at your situation not angry at you!

Thanks, still don't like to anger anyone though.
It is nice to know that someone else knows what I mean, even though I don't want anyone else to have a bad experience.

2nd this

Two years ago the MUAs were rude and bitchy and I never went to MAC again until this year. Now they are alot nicer and helpful.

Last week against my better judgement I decided to give the counter at Chadstone another shot. After the appalling service I got there a couple of months ago I was reluctant to ever go back, but some of the folks here mentioned how good they always find the service, so I thought, well I'll give them one more chance.

I got wonderful service this time. It was a bit busy but within 30 seconds of me stopping at the Fergie Viva Glam display I had a MUA approach me and offer assistance. I spent about 20 minutes with her. She invited me to take a seat and try the Line Filler on my face. She was helpful and polite, excusing herself when she needed to assist another MUA and then appologising when she returned. As it turned out I was her last customer as I heard her say goodbye to her collegues as I was leaving, and yet she had not tried to rush me out.

I wish they wore name tags as it would make it so much easier to contact MAC and give feedback. I'm still going to email MAC and tell them how happy I was with the service and hope they might be able to identify the girl in question.
