Professional Practise- My current work

This will be a relatively brief post to explain my current professional situation which is probably my fancy way of saying the job that I currently do. I am a sales assistant at Cex in Hartlepool, this is a part time job as I am contracted to a minimum of 5 hours a week (though I have never done that few) which is ideal for me as it means that I am able to do this job doing university to the best of my ability. I must say that at one point my job did seem to take over and my minor project did almost suffer as a result, however, I addressed this and was able to sort myself out and refocus on university and it has not since been an issue.

Within my work I have learned many transferable skills that have genuinely made me more employable in other fields. For example, I am now a much more accomplished salesman and I am now much more competent at dealing with people both the good and the bad in that, the nature of the shop I work in can often lead to people getting mad, I feel I am certainly more equipped to deal with this as a result of my job. There genuinely isn't an awful lot to be said about my work, I am a run of the mill retail worker but one thing worth mentioning is the potential progression in the job, the step above me is supervisor which is like a mini manager, then from there assistant manager, then store manager, then ops manager. That is the basic progression but there are different branches within the company that one could potentially split off and follow, such as the repair team or marketing for example, though I don't at this point think of Cex as my career, there are prospects there should I want to pursue it, though it is definitely a stop gap at the minute more than a career.
