I'd rather work in the specialty store than someplace like Wal Mart or a 7/11. The worst place would be a convenience store. Imagine having to keep up with the customers and run the gas pumps at the same time. Not to mention people wanting to buy lottery tickets 8O

Ummm... This doesn't preclude you from exercise. I work a full time job AND exercise. :)

You really can do both.

No he is not but he is job hunting. He turned down a job at a call centre last week becuase he did not like it.

He left his last job at a conveniance store 4 weeks ago.

So, it sounds like everyone might be in a bad mood because of this? Not having a job can be a stressful time.

Yeah true but i think my brother has a hard time keeping jobs because he is not very polite to customers or employers.

Certain jobs you have to be really polite and put up with a lot or the manager doesn't give you many hours.
