| retail sucks ass. it will seem ok for a bit.. then you slowly forget what you want to do with your life and then you find yourself in your mid 20's and only in middle management goin WTF HAPPENED?!?!?
Go do summer work on a Farm. Learn the meaning of hard physical labor. Trust me, its 10x's better working outside busting your ass than to be in retail. | |

| Seriously though. I did retail for a few years and was just growing complacent. Got fired and moved out of state and got a job at a Tree Nursery. Best experience EVER! Other than the day after binges and whatnot i really didnt mind goin in to work. I would be told what im doin for the day and then go do it. All alone. On a 5200 acre farm. Work for 12 hours with just me my thoughts and the outdoors. I had a ton of time to reflect and think. | |

Construction and appliance repair pays decent... my hotel and gas station jobs never really have (but those were part times). I've never worked retail... like for a department store or anything. Nor have I worked at a restaurant And I got enough work on farms growing up. Since I lived on glaciated soil there was never an end to the rock picking in the fields (which was ok at $50 a day). Maybe that's why I like rocks today... | |

| No place would even interview me except the couple of times taco bell and mcdonald's were doing quick interviews of anybody who showed up... like a hiring day.
That was until I applied at the place my brother worked... and he mentioned me to someone there... bada bing, bada boom, they interviewed me and hired me in less than a week.
I really get the feeling employers don't really give a shit who they hire. It's all 50/50 for them anyway, so they roll the dice. I'm sure some people come out lookin a lot better when they got a job history and do a good interview, so they take that guy, but again... they don't seem to give a shit. If you know somebody there who isn't one of the "bad ones" and they say you're applying there, they're like "sure, why the fuck not". | |
