Another retail (Target Corporation) job offer, WWYD?

[Tyrant222]

a few members of my family work retail.

it is good money for sure. but 50 hours a week takes a lot away from family.

Don't go into retail if you don't have the patience of a saint. 4 years working as a manager at Blockbuster has shown me how many idiots there are in the world.

70k is pretty good money out the box regardless.

i say u go with corporate finance. thats what i'd choose if i was in your shoes

People are right about the moving around part. My neighbor of 2 years just sold their house to move halfway across the country; he's also a Target store manager.

Did you tell them about Azurik Inc?

The biggest problem is that they can move you anywhere at anytime. Not only is that diifficult if you a SO but you can also get placed in crappy places.

What if moving wasn't a factor? Would you say 50 hours on average is a pretty good estimate - minus T-Day thru New Years?
