Question by xo_duckie_xo: What to wear for new job at antique store?
My best friends mom owns a antique store, and she recently gave me a job there. Tomorrow is my second day, the first day I dressed a little dressy, and I felt uncomfortable. I basically run the cash register and put out new items, so I’m running around the entire time.
Any ideas on what to wear? Its supposed to be rather nice outside, so don’t worry too much about the weather.
Thanks!
Despite the critical and popular success of the author’s first volume, Country Store Collectibles, it was clear there were many more country store antiques than could be covered in one book. In this completely new volume are hundreds of items, gathered from some of the best collections in the country, and presented in beautiful full color. Also included are period photos of actual country and general stores that have never been published before. Concise captions and an accurate price guide make

This video shows the MediaGlass messaging system installed at the Pavilion Antique store in San Anselmo, CA, just north of San Francisco. Line art animations of antique furniture move and spin on the window, for a 3D hologram feel. The window is kept completely clear, so merchandise is visible, while the Christmas tree and the animated falling snowflakes complement each other. The point of differentiation with this technology is that it allows one to put animated messaging on completely clear surfaces. Nothing else does that. You can use posters. You can use opaque LCD screens. You can hang a TV in the window. You can frost a window to make it translucent so it catches part but not all of a projected image. But none of the alternatives keep the window clear, so you can use the window for what it is, a transparent barrier, and still see through it. With all alternative technologies, you might as well have a wall instead of a window. As we all know, windows are better and invite customers into the store. Keep your windows. Use them for dynamic messaging with SuperImagings MediaGlass!
