[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Cop, plumber, firefighter - yes of course Cashier at Walmart- probably not. My family is very blue collar [b]and I’ve worked hard to establish a career that isn’t retail focused[/b].[/quote] I know this was posted years ago, but this is such a narrow view of life. There are big buCks in [b]upper retail management and corporate jobs.[/b] DH works in that industry, and I have other HS friends who also work in retail - we often joke that it’s the career no one tells you about. I have an STEM career, and all of their paycheque blow mine out of the water. [/quote] Retail focused meant working the floor/register, an hourly employee who often doesn't work full time and doesn't have 401k plan etc. Upper management and corporate retail isn't blue collar.[/quote]
