You get paid for what you bring to the job.
Retail is usually an-entry level job.
Gives you some experience for your next job.
There was a time in my life after, ‘The Army’ where I was turned down for jobs I applied for. “You won’t stay - you’ve got too much on the ball. This job would bore you to tears.’
And Thank Goodness those HR People were right for once!
18 years of Garden Center Retail, Baby. Loved every minute of it as I clawed my way to the TOP...of the Compost Pile, LOL!
Thinking back, I laughed so much at my own boys when they were taking after-school jobs and such. They all thought they should be the CEO right out of the gate, LOL! Sorry, Son. You need to EARN it, first!
Now go clean out the Chicken Coop, LOSER! ;)
