Learn as much as you can about selling. What the customer wants and why is the Number One lesson. Next comes the tech-

In addition to this there is a wide field of opportunity in those phases of the merchandising busi- nese relating to store operation and control.

I know it is very discouraging sometimes to see people whom you think don't deserve it getting promotions. When you are young and ambitious, there is just one way to handle a situation like that-work atill harder at the job at hand.
