Went out shopping myself after dinner last night. It was nice not having any little kids with me. Especially in Home Goods where they have a nice section full of pretty glass items and dishes that I never get to look at. As I walked through the door I couldn't help notice their Help Wanted sign in the window. Of course it was only for the holidays but it stuck in my head as I know I really should be trying to find something new to make things a little easier.
As I wandered through the glass I passed a woman working there in her Home Goods apron. When I moved out of the glass and into the food section I couldn't help thinking that if I worked there I'd probably wind up breaking something and that wouldn't be too good. No Home Goods and I wouldn't be a good fit I thought. I turned up the next aisle and heard a loud crash and the sound of lots of glass breaking very close by. I couldn't believe it and my heart went out to the poor woman working there I had just passed. I knew it had to have been her that did it as there really wasn't anyone else around.
I took a quick glance over to see what had happened. I'm guessing she placed one too many items on a top shelf made out of glass and it broke. Breaking a mirror and some other things on it and below it as one crashed into another. Talking and thinking more and more lately about getting and looking for a new job, I knew I didn't want one in retail. I figured if it came to it I might not have a choice. Last night I think I got a little sign that staying away from retail is the right path for me to follow right now!
