And let the embarrassment of the holiday season begin.

If keeping a job a was that easy fewer people would be jumping thru hoops to stay on welfare. (In my dreams.)

This happened to me all the time at my neighborhood hardware store. People would ask me where stuff was all the time. Of course I was there a lot and I loved browsing the shelves so I should’ve got a job there.

They seldom asked if I worked there, went straight to asking where. Afterwards they would compliment me to the manager. THAT’S when they found out that I didn’t work there.

I wished was that easy to get a job. I have son who knows where most products are located but to get a job there forget it, someone else less knowledgeable gets the job. He needs work bad. No drugs clean history. He wants what others do stock shelves.

I stopped wearing polo shirts because it seemed like every time I wore one into a store, someone would think I worked there. I guess they are a common uniform item, and not a common piece of everyday women’s attire.

Have you noticed in some stores – no name tags or even tags identifying the staff as staff? I quite understand not wanting to have your name on your shirt – but please I need to know you’re staff!
