Welcome to That Sweet Salary podcast hosted by Ben Harris & Emily Green! This week, we dive into the harsh realities of retail work and the broken promises of full-time employment. Our discussion explores how unpredictable hours leave workers caught in a financial trap—unable to secure a second job or qualify for unemployment benefits. Join us as we uncover tips for surviving this cycle, including alternative career paths, leveraging government programs, and resources to make ends meet. If you’ve ever felt stuck in a retail job with no way out, this episode is for you.
