Enjoying my Seasonal Retail Position

I don’t know if you have ever worked in a retail store during the Christmas shopping season, but let me tell you, you should try it out.  If you have ever felt frantic as a shopper finding those last minute gifts, you should try being the sales clerk that is helping you out – it is definitely something else.

I never understood the point of view of the sales clerk until this year when I took a seasonal position working at a retail store.  I thought it would be a great way to get out of the home and actually interact with people – something that my home business just doesn’t give me.  The money wasn’t going to be anything to get excited about, but I thought that the experience would be worth it.

I had a wonderful time helping men and women decide what to get their significant other for a gift.  You see, I was assigned to sell gold jewelry.  I had no experience doing it, but it really wasn’t too hard to pickup, and I had a blast.

I would have to say that I have been really happy for the opportunity to learn how easy selling gold could be and I think that it will be something I will try again next year.  Maybe next year I can learn something new.
