I work the shifts in Primark no one knows about – it’s exhausting but at least I don’t have to deal with customers

MOST bargain-mad fashionistas will know that Primark is buzzing and jam-packed with shoppers during the day - but what happens inside the store once the doors shut?. Well, now employee of the mega retailer, Akasha Rose, has taken to TikTok to reveal what the late shift staff get up to when the last customers leave the store.

According to the mum-of-two, her shift only starts at 9pm - and she won't be able to go home until just before 7am. To make sure she gets through the long shift, which includes adding new stock to the ever-growing range, Akasha arrives with plenty of food and snacks, such as a breakfast bar and nutritious salad.

Once the staff member gets to her Primark and has clocked in for the shift, she will deal with several boxes full of different items that need to be put out. Going through the dozens of bargain buys customers will then later snap up, Akasha - who chuckled and admitted she was already ''tired'' by this point - is responsible for placing these where they belong.
Some of the goodies TikTok users saw the mum-of-two pack out in the video included colourful socks and smart trousers. By around 11.30pm, a few hours after she had clocked in, Akasha went on a small break, devouring the salad and some coffee she had taken with her.
30 minutes later, the short break was over and Akasha had to return back to her duties, this time tackling a massive box that contained Primark's Lilo & Stitch collection. ''Back to it. Primark loves Lilo & Stitch,'' the mum-of-two chuckled in the clip.
