I worked in retail for many yea...What a great post! I worked in retail for many years and was always surprised at the numbers of people who thought I was responsible for the lack of stock, the number of salespeople on the floor, and the price of merchandise! I've always felt that EVERYONE should work a year in retail AND a year as waitstaff at a restaurant. It would change your outlook, believe me!<BR/><BR/>On another note, today I went to Target to exchange a birthday present. No lines, no trouble parking, no hassles (but I made sure to have my receipt), and plenty of stock on most things. It's a sign of our economic times, and one that gives me pause, even as I enjoy the lack of crowds in the stores.Cherylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00188941985410211383noreply@blogger.com
