Do you ever regret a job you worked in the past? I definitely do. I’ve worked at a few retail and non-retail places, but there’s one job I really wish I’d never taken and it was a thrift store. I think it was mostly because of the work culture and the people. Even though I had a supervisor title, I was treated like just another team member. Honestly, there wasn’t a single day that didn’t stress me out. I still don’t understand how people are still working there!

I never regret working some jobs in the past because it has helped me land the job that I have now. One of the retail job that I used to work at never valued giving us frequent raises. I had to quit because I felt like I was a working like a slave.

You are right about getting experience from an old job which leads to a new one. I guess my point is there are some jobs you feel like you hadn't worked.
