Mexican Immigrant Works to Dress People On Special Occasions

Gloria Martinez, a woman with short, curly hair, busily fills tuxedo rental forms, piling one on top of the other, in a store filled with gowns, purpose and possibilities. Nearby, a tall woman with black hair looks through the wedding magazines.

Your friend needs to come in, even if she wears a size eight in jeans, dresses are different, Martinez, an employee of 20 years, insists.

The customer disagrees: her friend is a size eight. She turns on her heels and walks out. Martinez runs after her. She returns.

We cannot let her leave with the magazine, it's the only one we have, Martinez explains as she walks back in with the magazine. Last time someone did take the magazine and we lost lots of money since it was the most popular magazine and we couldn't get another copy.
