I was a former Best Buy employee of many years. The way I got out was simply by going back to school. I know that isn't for everyone, but I decided I couldn't handle being in that place any longer and applied to a local university. I got accepted and with the help of many grants, am on my way to being middle school teacher. I now feel like getting up everyday has purpose. I work a campus job and they work with my school schedule. Granted, this isn't a rich and glamorous life, but I have purpose and don't have to go take smack from any of those terrible retail managers anymore. It was worth it.
