I bet about half of us Mibbians have wanted to work at Hot Topic at some time or another.
I went on Hot Topic's web store to try and special order some jeans, and I thought, "Hey, I'll see how old you have to be to work there".
So, I looked at their little job applications, and you have to be over 18!
Is it like that with anyone else's HT?
I REALLY wanna work there; hot guys, good music, easy jobs...what more could you ask for?

It's probably like that with most hot topics. Even though I don't have Hot Topic where I live, there's probably reasons.
They want more mature people, older people to handle younger customers, lifting stock boxes, etc.

At the Hot Topic in my mall you have to be 18.
It also could be the area you are in. Like Malls usually ask for 18 and over.

If you look at Hot Topic's site, it says you have to be over 16.
It depends where it's located, too.

The Hot Topic at my mall is like 16+ or somewhere around there. I've gone shopping there a few times and seen some of my friends from school working there, and they're not 18.

The Hot Topic here is sixteen and up, it could be because of the location you live in though, heh..

You have to be 18 to work at the Hot Topic that's around here too. I also heard somewhere that you have to have a piercing or tattoo to work there as well. I'm not sure if that's true, but when you look at the people who work there, it kind of seems that way.

I kinda know this guy from a bunch of shows and I know for a fact he's sixteen. He works there.

(Plus, Ryan Ross worked there when he was sixteen. Find that one funny...)

It seems like an odd place to work, honestly.

Yeah it does, but I wouldn't mind that rule. I'm planning on getting my lip pierced soon.... If my mom lets me. XD

I know a lot of people who work at Hot Topic, and I asked them if piercings/tattooes were a requirement, and they started laughing and asked where I had heard that from. Some people who work there just spread rumors, I guess. Shifty

I wish we had a Hot Topic here.
I so would apply, because I need a job bad.

I'm pretty sure you have to be 18. It probably used to be 16 though.

I'm pretty sure by my house it's eighteen. But regardless they're almost never hiring. I think friends get other friends spots there and stuff right when there's an opening. It would be cool to work there though.
