This book chronicles my career of thirty years in retail, the highs, the lows, and everywhere in between. From my first day as a wide-eyed newbie to my last day as a weary veteran. As I looked back over the years, I found myself questioning the choices that had brought me this far and left me wondering: what had it all been for? Come along and learn about the behind-the-scenes world of retail. The inner workings of a large retail store and how those items appear on the shelves for you to buy. The stress of frenzied holidays tempered with the jokes and laughs with co-workers. The enemies made and the life-long friends I gained along the way. For all who started and stayed longer than they ever intended. For everyone who has ever said "I would never work in retail" meet those who do and keep the store running for you.
