I hope to share them with you when I learn more.

I had so much fun at the Store. Both as Team Lead and as the Visual
Coordinator. Alas, when you can’t even afford the product at your own
employment!

So I opted to continue in my quest.

I will from time to time still display models in and around the Store and Mall.

Thank you for an unforgettable experience.

Eric,

I think I understand the forces you were dealing with. I had my own similar experience recently with retail and found that my time spent was NOT worth the meager paycheck at the end of the week.

In fact, when I first learned of the many job opportunities with Lego Brand Retail, I considered applying for one of the upper level positions. But after a little thought, I talked myself out of it. My biggest hold-up was that I did not want to give up selling Lego on BrickLink and any job with the Lego Group disallows reselling any Lego products.

But Eric, you were wise to step away from a situation that did not work out for you. May I offer my best wishes and much success at finding something more suitable for you and better finacially, too. Good Luck.
