Retail is now the largest employer in the United States. For the most part, retail jobs are “bad jobs” characterized by low wages, unpredictable work schedules, and few opportunities for advancement. However, labor experts Françoise Carré and Chris Tilly show that these conditions are not inevitable. In Where Bad Jobs Are Better, they investigate retail work across different industries and seven countries to demonstrate that better retail jobs are not just possible, but already exist. By carefully analyzing the factors that lead to more desirable retail jobs, Where Bad Jobs Are Better charts a path to improving job quality for all low-wage jobs. In surveying retail work across the United States, Carré and Tilly find that the majority of retail workers receive low pay and nearly half work part-time, which contributes to high turnover and low productivity. Jobs staffed predominantly by women, such as grocery store cashiers, pay even less than retail jobs in male-dominated fields, such as consumer electronics. Yet, when comparing these jobs to similar positions in Western Europe, Carré and Tilly find surprising differences. In France, though supermarket cashiers perform essentially the same work as cashiers in the United States, they receive higher pay, are mostly full-time, and experience lower turnover and higher productivity. And unlike the United States, where many retail employees are subject to unpredictable schedules, in Germany, retailers are required by law to provide their employees notice of work schedules six months in advance. The authors show that disparities in job quality are largely the result of differing social norms and national institutions. For instance, weak labor regulations and the decline of unions in the United States have enabled retailers to cut labor costs aggressively in ways that depress wages and discourage full-time work. On the other hand, higher minimum wages, greater government regulation of work schedules, and stronger collective bargaining through unions and works councils have improved the quality of retail jobs in Europe. As retail and service work continue to expand, American employers and policymakers will have to decide the extent to which these jobs will be good or bad. Where Bad Jobs Are Better shows how stronger rules and regulations can improve the lives of retail workers and boost the quality of low-wage jobs across the board.

Having spent my career in retail as a store manager, district manager, division manager, and finally as a retail consultant the following book came to be. It was not something I had planned on writing. However, I have become increasingly frustrated by the lack of common sense management practices that thirty years ago seemed to be commonplace. I had to ask myself is my perception a result of growing older? I don't think so! Some people think that retail would be a great job if only it did not require dealing with customers. Unfortunately, those who believe this, have no business being in retail. Everything about retail focuses on and around customer service. Having trained many managers throughout the years with the fundamentals laid out in the following pages. I have used my experience and knowledge to mentor those who showed promise, a desire to learn, and were eager to improve upon their management skills. I have researched and written a great deal of training material which has been a useful resource in many teaching applications. The many advances in technology over the past thirty years have improved on numerous methods of operation. However, with the focus on the assimilation of new technology the basics have been pushed to the back of the training curriculum. This has left a critical gap in the education of new managers coming out of school or up through the ranks. The purpose of this book is to put management information in an easy to understand, straight forward manner so that the reader can easily reference the essentials of a manager's job. Many of the books written on management principles and practices rarely relate directly with managers working at store level. The retail industry is filled with hard working people with varying levels of education who are relying on training programs to help them advance in their careers. Hopefully this book will answer some of your questions, or give you an understanding of the basics. If unknown, it could be holding your career back. Retail is not ranked favorably as a career path. Many of us find ourselves working in retail for a number of different reasons. Retail continues to evolve; grocery stores today come in a wide variety of formats as do every other type of retail store. Drive around where you live or work and count the number of retail stores in the neighborhood. Every store has a store manager and in most cases multiple management positions to fill. If you're working in retail, or know someone who works in retail, there is something in this book which can help advance a career. This book provides an outline which can guide you in your search for further answers while challenging you to question how effective your management skills really are. Most companies have policies and procedures which cover in more specific detail what is written here. To give a detailed explanation in each instance would make this book unlikely to be read cover to cover. The content is to motivate you to answer your own questions and do further research and analysis into your current methods of management. Confidence is a major component in career advancement. Someone less qualified can easily outshine more capable employees in the promotion process when they project more confidence in their abilities. This does not mean that their short comings will not catch up with them, what it does mean is that you were passed over for promotion. Ready, willing, and able is an old saying from the early 20th century. Presently it is a term used in real estate which means by current definition, "capable of an action and disposed to act." However, my definition is, ready to fight, willing to negotiate, and able to compromise. This is a process which has served me well over the years. When right one needs to step up and question the status quo.
