I don't think that there are more than 5 people in the world that enjoy working in retail and no more the 2 that don't hate their bosses. This was garnered from personal life experience. Having been both supervised and supervising. Sometimes the hate runs in both directions.
I've never worked in retail but I have had a few employers that I didn't care for.

My father in law used to say that "a person can start a business and enjoy the success and income it garners, then they have to hire help and it becomes a chore" *. (at least until they are big enough to have a Human Resource Department and they can be isolated from the never ending daily employee problems.)

* He used more colorful words than chore, but this is a family board.

My first legal job at age 16 was as a cashier at Kmart $3.35 per hour. I worked under the table jobs prior to age 16. I liked it and when someone used a credit card the transaction took longer. I had to look in a thick book of stolen credit card numbers and had to compare it to the customer credit card to see if the card was legit. I wore a K mart vest and a shirt and tie.

I actually decided a few months ago to become self-employed. A bit scary not having a steady pay check but I love the freedom it gives me.
