A FORMER employee of Claire's Accessories has spilled the beans on what it was like working at the popular high street retailer.
21-year-old TikTok user Daniel (@denialdenialdenial) said his experience was so traumatic, he still experienced nightmares two years after quitting.

''I know you guys are out of stock, but I want to check anyways,'' the eager shopper would say.
After Daniel apologising and explaining that they haven't been sent any for some time now, the customer would not take 'no' for an answer.

But however many times the man proceeded to explain that would not be possible, the parent would insist.
