Well, I have HUGE news! I was offered a new job today! I will be the new Customer Experience Manager at the Old Navy store in Gurnee. Basically I will be the HR/assistant store manager kind of thing. I will still get to merchandise and play with clothes, but my main focus is training the associates and keeping the store at the level it needs to be!
It comes with a very nice pay increase, way better benefits, and tons more vacation....which all start the FIRST day I start! The drive will be kind of annoying, but it will be worth it I am told. My friend works for Old Navy and LOVES it and I think my boss will be the best boss I have ever worked for!
I am putting in my 2 weeks tomorrow at work, but if they don't accept it I might start as soon as Monday. If they do accept it I will finish my 2 weeks and then take my planned vacation and start on 8/20.
Thank you to everyone who has listened to me complain and cry about Carson's and my job searching....it will all end now!

Wonderful news! Perhaps this is why you didn't get the other jobs---anyhow, we are very happy for you and wish you the best! Love, Gram H.
Congratulations Mindy!!
Is the Old Navy at Gurnee Mills or separate?
Do you get regular hours? Weekends off?
You deserve the best they can give you!

Congratulations!
You are so deserving of a good position where people will treat you good and respect your decisions. We are so happy that you have landed this position with Old Navy at Gurnee Mills. Carson's don't know what they will be missing until you are gone.
Love you, MOM, DAD, Todd and Tiggy too.
How exciting! Congratulations, Mindy! Working for Old Navy sounds like fun (much cuter merchandise to play with than Carson's menswear, I'm sure!). I'm really happy for you -

Thanks for your support everyone! I can't wait to start. I am having a VERY hard time staying motivated to work hard at work...knowing I only have about 8 days left! But I am because I have some sort of a work ethic! Don't worry....you will see all of the new Old Navy fashions on myself, Jason, and even Dakota in the future!
Mindy, what great news! And I love Old Navy! It's where I get most of my clothes when I actually go shopping and get new clothes ;-)
Congratulations!!!
