just a question.. how is that a real job..

A real job to me is something full time with benefits... bringing home something you can actually support a family with, not being a salesman or whatever for a few hours a day for some sunglasses

if its a full time job then a full time job would be a better way to put it, but like he said somthing with insurance and 401k would be a real job

one of friends clear back in high school worked there

He always was complaining about how boring it was when no one was in the store and how shitty his hours were. I bet it depends on the location though.

I stopped by the factory when my wife and I were there on vacation last August, and it was pretty cool. I think working in that store would be okay if you were in warranty, because you could work the phones in between customers, thier sales staff looked like zombies though. The factory isn't exactly near anything, or in a highly populated area of SoCal, probably a good PT job for a student though. Great company. Have to be careful about the employee discount though- you might end up working for free just so you can sprt some trick shades and that isn't worth it. I took some pics while I was there and will try and upload those if anyone wants to see them. There were some major high-dollar cars in the parking lot (Rovers on 22's, Porsche Carrera's, etc.)
