Well everyone, I just started today at a new job working in retail sales. Not exactly what I thought it'd be but then again I did kind of expect it and sign up for it. Maybe I just need to actually get into the swing of it before I'll like it. The atmosphere and environment seem stressful but I guess that's the risk you run when you get into a job like that. Very numbers oriented. I'm not really much of a numbers kinda guy. I like working with them but I don't like being forced to attain some sort of number as a goal and stuff... I guess that's why I'm not very motivated in school. Or I just never really knew what I was doing in school, of which my perspective has changed a bit.
So in starting my new job, as always with any job you need to go through training. I'll be going through another 6 or so training sessions and I need to get comfortable talking to strangers and initiating conversation with them again. Fun stuff. It's like being in California again, just with a different end goal. Lets see how it'll work this time. I don't think I'm cut out for talking to strangers and stuff. But then again, I did it before I don't see why I can't do it again. I just need to build up my own client base and then sell sell sell. I should take tips from random movies like "the goods" and stuff. Anyways, here's to a new job and a new list of skills I can add to my ever so diminutive resume.
