I would like a job at a record store

good point

I was thinking the same thing.

Actually they do. I know for a fact there's one in our city. Records are actually pretty popular these days.

That's a good question. There are afew used record stores, but that's about it.

Bingo. Those pesky resume-writing skills!

Off the top of my head: If you live in Chicago, look into Music Direct. They've a great website you can check out. If you live in Boston, look into Newbury Comics, who have several stores. But do you own a turntable? Do you know how to set up a turntable? Do you have stereo system? If not, how are you going to be able to guide your customers? What skills do you have to offer? "Records" to me, and I was in high-end audio for 15 years, means "vinyl recordings." Do you own any? Do you know the difference between excellent LP companies, like Mobile Fidelity and Deutschegrammephon, and crap LP companies, like RCA? If not, how can you help your customers? Most vinyl customers will be Classical and Jazz aficionados, followed rather distantly by Baby Boom Rock 'n' Roll. Do you
have a very good working knowledge of these three musical genres, so you can make informed recommendations to your customers, and have an intelligent and stimulating conversation with them?

Ha, ha. 😄 That movie always comes to mind when someone mentions a record store.

LP sales surpassed CD sales three years ago; but most people buy their hard media online, so there are very few stores for brand-new hard media. In Boston, we have many more used record stores than new record stores.

I have a job interview during there annual christmas season fair highering! Its gonna be awsome. Just to start out then see where it goes. If it goes well I start christmas eve day.
