After interning at boohoo HQ for the past year, these are the ultimate lessons I took away with me…
Thanksgiving is hereeeeee! And whilst it’s an American Tradition, it’s something we can all take on board. After all, we’ve ALL got something to be thankful for. So 5 guys from boohoo HQ share just what…
Beth
“I’m thankful for a tight squad of girls who always have my back”
Stacey
“I’m thankful for just being happy. A lot of people place value on the big house, fancy car and going on holiday. Don’t get me wrong, I love a holiday but it’s about being thankful for the little things like a beautiful sunset, laughing ’til your stomach hurts, a roof over your head and good people surrounding you on the daily making you realise how wonderful life is”
Laura
“I’m thankful for music. I don’t get go a day without listening to it. Gangster rap helps me feel at my sassiest on the daily”
Serina
“I’m thankful for having such amazing friends and family who are always there when I need them!”
Julien
“I’m thankful for my amazing colleagues that I get to work with every single day”

1. Sunday nights are spent preparing each other for the week ahead. You know it’ll all be OK, because you’ve got each other
2. You spend the best part of Monday morning in the kitchen going over weekend gossip… although you already know what’s happened… because you were Whatsapping about that Tinder date fail Friday night, Saturday morning, all day Sunday…
3. Your lunches are planned by 11:30. You glance over at each other giving the knowing eye that’s it time to get out before anyone else can see you / join in
4. You go over your data allowance every month. “Did you see Emily go into that meeting with Sophie… what’s that all about”
5. When the new guy starts in accounts, you know everything about him. One of you has already stalked him on Linkedin, the others on his Instagram right now
6. You’re constantly getting weird stares from your co-workers… no-one else understands why a llama family is funny
7. You feel the same things… if one of you is off sick, there’s no point in the other coming in
8. Work parties almost always end in tears… but it’s ok, because your BFF is there to pick you up, tell you that you didn’t try and kiss that guy from IT, and assure you that you’re not getting fired next week
9. They’ll always listen to you moan about work when your non-work best friend / boyfriend / mum just roll their eyes
10. Most of all, they make the sun shine on even the dreariest day
Some BFFs from boohoo HQ…
Everyone looks a game of this or that so we caught up with boohoo HQ’s Talent Manager and all round babe Janey to put her to some tough choices…
