    well as of 6:30 am today I quit my job. I was working for morton buildings which is a good company but I was not using my college degree so I decided to change things up. however at 1pm today I will start my new career as a Manager at scheels sporting goods. I will be working in the hunting department. I finally get to do two things I love to do, be in sales and help people make informed decision on hunting gear. today couldn't get any better

    I've always wanted to quit a job. I feel like I would be a good quitter.


    As someone who has worked retail at a big box sports store, you will hate it during hunting season. 98% of the "hunters" that come in are what people on this site complain about.

    It would be nice to see some people with a clue. You will now have some control over that. Could be a good thing for the store. Best of luck.

    I'm a full time firefighter and I love my job!! We just got a new scheels in my area and having worked in a proshop before I inquired about the archery dept there. I was hoping to work on my days off for them. But then I realized two things...is be working instead of hunting...and I'd be working instead of hunting. LOL. Wish I had time to go back to a pro shop again. If we only had one in town still. I have heard scheels has the best employee purchase program around!!!
