    Well I've been working at JC Penney's for a bit over 2 years now. It all started with DECA in high school which helped get me my first job. Now I'm looking to move reason being management mostly and I think its time for a change. The Express store at my nearby mall is hiring but not sure how much they pay. If anyone knows I would surely appreciate the input. I also have a job interview tomorrow with WaMu for a part time teller position which might pay about 9/hr. If WaMu falls through I'm seriously considering going to Express. Anyone have any past experiences with them? Good or bad? Any other places that may be good to apply?

    I know that. Seeing as how I'm only making 7.49 right now, I think as long as I make the same is the only way I'll go there but only if I dont get the WaMu job. And they said they're real flexible with hours so thats good.

    retail sucks balls. i worked at this place which paid minimum wage, 7.50 an hour, and i had to take huge amounts of shyt from customers and the boss.

    he blamed low sales on me, when almost nobody ever comes in cause they got ****ty clothes. its a foreign brand, which they try to sell for double the price here.

    i finally ****in quit cause i found a way better job.

    The only reason I'm considering Express is because of the 30% discount :D But who knows, if I get the bank job I may work there like a day out of the week just to get the discount :p

    You might as well work at Banana Republic if you want the employee discounts.

    What does the pay depend on? Tips from golfers? That actually doesn't sound like a bad job idea at all, I may have to look into it.
