That's about how I felt when I worked retail. The managers would make us re-fold entire tables of clothes because one tag wasn't tucked in. (And isn't it easier for the customer to see the price/size when the tags are not tucked all the way inside the shirt???) Anyway, can you just do this seasonally until you find something else? I agree it would be much better to work for a small store over a department store. If you don't need the money right now, maybe you should quit now before it stresses you out? I remember being scheduled on days/times I stated I was unavailable and then being told I'd get 20 hours and then getting 5. It was awful. It's not just you.

What if you worked in a smaller boutique where you could learn something from the owners? You could even make more than $7/hr answering phones at a professional office or something like that, and that definitely would not require a degree.
