the Retail Experience

oh the days of working retail let me think back to the routine.

have a Smile on your face though you don't want to smile fully.

Greet the customers though some of the Customers ignore you and could care less about you.

price tagging items though some of the customers made some of the tags disappear.

searching for a product and the manager or assitant manager are extra lost.

dressing up to company code though someone enters who smells, has bad breath and breaths all over you.

the Holiday Rush and it seems to be a out of control Pour of folks who act like they ain't shopped in many years.

the bonus though the Promise was stronger than the actual raise in the paycheck.

working with a Newbie oh the Newbie is all excited and very upbeat to get a jump start until the Politics of the Enviroment of the atmosphere puts all things into perspective.


now the tables are flipped being on the outside looking in and I do feel for the Retail working person,but at the same time it's better to watch them going through the situation than myself. but you never forget the basics of doing the Retail on a 9 to 5 swing.

even being Interviewed for the Job has a so called you really want in vibe about it, until you get in and then it's another job.

it's a Cool and Uncool experience all at once and you do it for reasons that have little to do with Money but more about a Cool Status symbol. that's why i always viewed it as. interesting huh?
