If you've been on Twitter lately, you're probably just as confused about #AlexfromTarget as we are.

The hashtag started trending Monday after a picture of the Target worker, apparently named Alex, was posted over the weekend. It's not clear who posted the image, but the photo began going viral as many were talking about Alex's good looks.

The power of teen girls on Twitter is amazing. This is just a kid doing in job and then the internet takes over his life.

Hope he gets a commercial out of it.

A perfect example of why females shouldn’t vote. Style over substance. Alex could be a serial killer for all they care, but they don’t care.

Sad for teen girls. He looks like a teen girl himself. Was I weird as a teen that I thought muscles, work boots, and a Copenhagen ring was sexy?

They are probably in wonderment because a teen looking guy actually got a job!!

Oh look, Alex actually works someplace. he has a future other than Mom and Dads’s basement.

...kid looks a bit like that morning geek on The Weather Channel - the one that wears the “skinny” suit.

If that’s Alex, I have a feeling those tweeting about him are not female and not normal, as it were. Girly-looking.

The internet that can make you is the same internet that can break you. I actually feel sorry for the kid.
