I bet you are great at it....just think of all the people you can help look and feel better about themselves-which is no small thing....if you feel that comfortable already, maybe it is the job for you! I know when I started cashiering, I thought I'd do it for a year or two...ended up working 19 yrs there! lol....glad your feet are holding up ok...please keep in mind SAS shoes (especially nubuck Free Time) are great for long hours on your feet as well, if you ever want to switch brands.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-an-expert#post-221396 Sat, 25 Sep 2010 17:52:02 +0000 Vix 221396@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congrats! It's nice to feel "competent+" even when working in a non-dream job...IME it helps motivate one not to phone it in.</p> <p>And I'm not surprised that women trust your opinion on what to wear! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/im-an-expert#post-221395 Sat, 25 Sep 2010 17:49:58 +0000 quail 221395@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congratulations!

I am now an "Encore Certified Shape Specialist" at work... which basically means that I know how to dress all body types and can recommend appropriate clothing. I asked my manager to put this title on my business cards too. Haha.</p> <p>I have to say, my YLF education came in handy in passing this quiz! :)</p> <p>I am really enjoying working at Nordies so far. I feel that I've caught on quickly and I feel very comfortable working in the plus size department. Because I shop at Nordstrom so much I am very familiar with the merchandise and it has been easy for me to make suggestions and recommendations. And it's a lot of fun! I really enjoy helping women put outfits together, and it's amazing -- they seem to trust my judgement. It's a good feeling. I don't plan to stay in retail for the rest of my life, but I do feel like this is my niche. I just need to figure out what to do with it/how to expand it.</p> <p>By the way, Me Too flats have been my savior while standing on my feet for 8 hours/day. </p>
