I have had that thought many times. I always sleep on it and the next day decide this is what I love doing and I am not going to let anyone ruin it for me.

There are times when I lose my temper, when management interferes with my production during high volume customer traffic. Greatest trigger is when they pressure me to multi task in areas unrelated to table time. It is during those times, that I think about walking out or foolishly dare them or not care if they fire me. That is one of the down sides of working for a large retail chain. Temper can cloud one's judgement, and respect. After a good nights sleep, the animosity fades and I realize how fortunate & thankful I am to have a job that I love.
im thinking in the long term. from 2 to 4 years from now. no doubt college schooling is in order. this time next year our contract may be finalized(though it expries 4/3/12). it could be my last if i get my act together, one avenue im NOT considering if i do get a degree is flipping and going into managment. those guys have it worse than i do.
I got out once when product started coming prepacked. I couldn't find a decent paying cutter job, so I went a different route. Found a union job at a local hospital and I worked part-time here and there in some shops but couldn't find a decent place. Most of the stores closed their doors after just a few years. I finally fell in with a really good shop and worked my way up to manager and it's been the best decision I've made as far as my career. I didn't know it at the time but I do now.
