I miss retail, selling electronics and answering technical questions at radio shack.
I loved that everything I sold went into my pocket. Certain products had spiffs (10 dollars for activating a phone/plan) while everything had a commission (%4 for name brand / 6%/ 10% (for batteries). If I didn't sell enough to make minimum wage I would get minimum wage otherwise whatever I made.
I loved the busy time around christmas. I loved when people came up and I rang them up. I loved playing with the products and learning about the stock.
I worked at a booth that gave away food and sold cheese/meat baskets. I loved giving away food, selling and collecting the money.
I wouldn't go back but I miss that selling feeling.
