I guess I could say moving in the good direction, and it would provide a nice linguistic link to the common word used to describe my recently discovered, upcoming job transformation: promotion. It certainly seems to be all pros and no cons to me. I get more money, work less days, have more interesting job functions, and it's officially a "higher" position (each month is another month of experience in a management position). I was hired by Wal~mart only 3 months 4 days ago*, so I am quite encouraged by this quick materialization of the ladder movement possibilities I had been assured of upon my initial hiring.
I do plan to return to and graduate from college, since I want to be a teacher, but since teaching generally dosen't overwhelm one with fincial returns, it would be nice to have Wal~mart career possibilities strewn from now to retirement (and beyond). No one who has worked for Wal~mart for 25 years has poor pay, benefits, or retirement options!
* I do have approx. two and a half years of hourly and salaried management experience.
