I often think that my choices 40 years ago were not made wisely and choosing the elusive dollar did not reap the rewards in either the monetary or emotional levels expected. If fact they fell far short...

When I left there were 28 store open, with 18 more due to open in the next 5 months and 120 people in the office. I wouldn't trade the experience for anything, but I was completely exhausted at the end.
