RE: The Baby's Room, Bala Cynwyd PA is concerned only with how you look!
I detest places that treat you differently if you're dressed differently, and I have to admit that I work for one of them. *shame*
I work for Nordstrom (hopefully everyone knows what store that is, or we need better advertising), but I'm a creative developer, so I just build things for the website.
So I went to a local Nordie's this weekend (about 4 times a year, employees get double their usual discount on any 'store' brands, and I wanted to buy some layette stuf). I'm at that "inbetween" stage, where I'm too big for my normal clothes, but too small to fill out maternity clothes (plus I haven't bought any yet!), so I was wearing a pair jeans which are way to big for me, but comfy.
So yeah, I looked like a slob. But goodness, the saleslady acted like I was some sort of vagrant, and actually avoided me until I cornered her to ask her a question about a sleeper. And then she actually wrinkled her nose at me!
I asked her for her name, and told her that I would be filing an internal complaint when I got back to my office at Nordstrom corporate. Boy did she try to make amends fast! I went to a different Nordstrom later in the day, got excellent service, and was happy to give *that* sales person her commission. *grin*
