FINALLY something I am qualified for

Post Reply New Topic

Last week I got offered a job at Pep Boys. I will be working the parts counter, part time, 20 hours a week. The shift is 5-9 and the pay is 8.35 an hour. I actually went to the Job Corps and have training in this field. And at this particular Pep Boys store, if I act even slightly sociable, I will be ahead. Plus not to mention the discount on parts for my car...

Congratulations, nice one

Congratulations! Settings like this can be good for learning social interaction.

Yeah, although I am used to social interaction, I think I would be more comfortable in this situation, as people are already coming in for something, as opposed to appliance sales, where you have CONVINCE someone to buy something...

That's great! Congratulations! I found working in retail really helped me develop my social skills.

UPDATE: I did not get that job due to the fact that when I worked there 12 years ago, the manager put me down as do not rehire for some reason, which I cannot remember. I did however get a job working at a mobile, 18 wheeler pressure washing business for 300 a week. Saturdays and Sundays only, but 10 hours each day.
