    Yes! I love my work, even though most people hate retail. I’m in a grocery store deli, and getting people food they like and them coming back saying I offered good recommendations just makes my day!

    I’m the manager, and even I still struggle a bit with money at times, all the while trying to save for a house. Not easy out here, but certainly wouldn’t want to stop working.

      Most people hate retail cause the conditions suck. If you could comfortably live while working retail. If the benefits and pay were more aligned to office jobs, your boss wasn’t usually a sociopath who has no remorse for having you come in while sick, and you got treated with genuine respect, it wouldn’t suck. But shit bosses and entitled customers make the job suck no matter the pay or benefits which are usually not enough to even rent a room on
