It does sound kind of lame, come to think of it...but look at it this way;
It's not cuz they work at abercrombie...it's the kind of people they hire there. You can't be busted and work at the store. Plus, managers have leadership skills, ambition, and a strong sense of duty. Retail managers generally work crazy hours for small pay. It may not be fighting fires, but it does show something about their character.
I'm just babbling but women like a good looking guy in college or just graduated who enjoy what they do for a living, make a decent living off of it, are confident, and have a strong fashion sense. It makes sense to me. I'm not saying af guys get women, i'm saying that type of guys do.
