The Hottopic Survey
I got this off the hottopic website under the dirt section to the inside ht to the employee of the month part and then i clicked on the names and each filled out a survey..so ima do it..peace P.S. it's hilarious what people around the nation at hottopic write in these surveys
PERSONAL INFORMATION
Name: Matt
AKA: Munk or Datz Matt and Mattie
Who is your hero and why: John Lennon because he was a create musician and solo artist. He opened my eyes to different part of the world and it sucks some moron had to ruin what he stood for. He's one of many heroes i have.
Nobody knows that I...: won a break dance contest once.
What about you stands out in a crowd: My eyebrows because they look like I cut them, but I never have.
Possession that brings you luck: My iron cross, it represents freedom and individualism. Yeah, it means another things too if you want to go there fine.
Things you collect (i.e. stamps, Star Wars memorabilia): Grey's Anatomy dvd/cds, Lord of The Rings stuff, International coins, Love is comics, flasks, concert and movie tickets etc.
What do you want to be remembered for? Teaching kids that history actually is a big part of their world today and some hate school and all this shit. Some don't even care what happened in the past. They're making history everyday....whether they realize it. I'd like to run for congress later change the school system and healthcare system around. vote for me..pshh i'd get shot and be remembered for that probably.
What would you want your last meal to be? Home made Chinese and Korean. A cinnabon, Diet pepsi and we'rte good.
What superhero power would you like to have? Time manipulation. Speed it up, slow it down, go back in time, and go into the future. That would be cool.
What gives you the chills? Every concert I attend I get the chills or a lil hyped up in a nervous way, but once the music is flowing through my blood im good to go.
Your first crush: Grape Soda
Anything else you feel like sharing? It's going to rain!
HOT TOPIC
What's the best part of your job? if i worked there...that would be so cool
What's the first thing you remember buying at HT: I believe it was choker and some hair dye
Your most prized Hot Topic possession: Probably, my atreyu, the curse with wings and skull shirt. Everything else probably got ruin or became a patch. I got some new shit, but i dont want to wear those out
Best customer experience: again if i worked i'd tell you though people think i do work there because i've had kids ask me shit..im like oh sorry i dont work here. haha. i mean people look similar, but still have their own unique of style..
Most embarrassing thing that ever happened to you while on the sales floor: This one anybody can answer... i gotta say like the first time i went there i wasn't in any kind of rock scene so i stood the fuck out, and i was like wtf am i doing here..
What made you apply at Hot Topic? I applied a few times in person and online..it's like a needle in a haystock to work there..unless you got some bad ass connection.
Best advice for a potential Hot Topic applicant: If i worked there...hmm be yourself, by hyper, and help people out. Also, if you hate something, keep that to yourself..you wouldnt want to get fired would you?
FASHION
Oldest item of clothing in your closet: Probably, these khanki pants..i've had them sicne middle school..i used them through my skateboarda era. I'm surpised they're still in one piece
Item of clothing you can't live without: Currently, it's my pinstripe black and dark green pants. I love those and I don't want them to fade either. I wear them at least once a month. As of a shirt...I'll go with my pine stripe white and black dress shirt. it's hella tight.. that's it abhout it there..
Worst fashion trend: Screamo Emo and Hardcore combined becuase they look dress the same and hairstyle are too similar. I hate chuck taylors..and it's like oh I'm emo so therefore I need these shoes. To me..emo is like the gateway trend because it's going to lead to screamo..hardcore..punk metalcore and the other cores.. However, luckily for me punk led me to metal and to where i am now. Even like preps, look like emo kids. Seriously, like on spring break now..i know they're form the burbs, but the way they dress..it's like half and half.. so they're converting over. but go ahead bash me..if you want to.
Celebrity you feel is in need of a Hot Topic makeover: Dr. House
Item of clothing you would never admit to wearing but you did: There's others I won't admit, but one will be...I wore chelsea's mini skirt. She has photos of it still and Jim did it too..so i wasnt alone.
The one accessory no one should be without: a computer
MUSIC
Best band to ever walk the face of the Earth: The Rolling Stones
Most overrated band: Led Zepplin
Best "kept secret" band: The Matches
Three CDs you cant live without: E. Von Dahl Killed the locals - The Matches, Issues - Korn, and Bullets...My Chemical Romance
Rock star that resembles you the most: None of them.
Most disappointing CD you own: Zwan, i think the first album or only album released. i thought billy corgan would have something special, but he only had that one song..honestly..and the rest was shit
Type of music you "just don't get": I'd say country, but that's the SAME thing as EMO, but much more popular and always will be compared to emo. So with that said, I'll go with jazz...it's just noise.
Favorite genre of music: Rock in general, but I'm currently into surfer punk/reggae punk
Best concert you have ever attended: The Matches w/ Mc Lars and Whole Wheat Bread March of 2006
