[QUOTE="KTMom91, post: 261230, member: 4040"] Retail is not for the faint of heart. After ten years in management (2 as a DM), I'd had enough. It can be fun, it can be exciting, but some companies will drain you dry and then be a thorn in your side even after you're gone. I started working for a regional chain here in CA. I was told they wanted a strong manager to come in, retrain, clean up the store, increase sales, and so on. Since I had DM experience, I could do this, no problem. After about four months, They were sending in secret shoppers and fussing at me about everything, including that I had left the store to walk down the mall to Carl's JR to get some iced tea, even though I was gone maybe 10 minutes and there were associates in the store. I was let go after six months. They told me that I hadn't worked 48 hours every week...true, I hadn't every single week. They told Unemployment I was terminated for gross misconduct, even though there was absolutely no disciplinary paperwork. Sending extra strength to get your husband through till he graduates!
