I often tell people the biggest benefit I’ve earned from retail is not the compensation (obv) but it’s the experience and confidence I’ve gained from talking to people. It’s helped me in so many other areas of my life. What about you, do you feel the same?

I totally agree. You get to talk to people from every walk of life. It is definitely helpful becoming familiar with how different classes of people respond to things. I absolutely agree with you! It definitely boosts your confidence in many ways. It also helps you build some thick skin. Most people in retail aren’t offended easily. I say if you are easily offended, you should work retail for a couple of years. You will either toughen up, or you will fall apart.

Has anyone here renegotiated their salary after a short time being in a role? I accepted a position and I like what I do but I realize that the workload requires a lot to see success and I feel a bit burned out already with my 40 hours/week and occasional extra 30 minutes to an hour a day.

I am stuck between putting in my time and showing my value and asking for an increase to validate doing so to avoid job hopping after a year or so.
