[QUOTE="Teeeroy, post: 885601, member: 3872"] I worked retail in the early to mid 80's. I was a department manager that was promised an assistant store manager position. The store manager dragged his feet getting me started on the training, but I insisted and he reluctantly let me start. Come to find out, the store was closing. They knew it, but never said anything to any of us. Back then, retail was an excuse for slave labor. Long hours, wearing a suit, stocking shelves and getting verbally abused by a visiting district manager. Don't miss it a bit. I know a few people in retail now and I guess you can really make some good money, but some things don't change (ie, long hours, workplace political BS, etc). Only retail I would do now would be my own company. [/QUOTE]
