Congratulations! That is fantastic pay for a job that will help you to get through school. Working that shift will take some getting used to, I would think. You'll have to go to bed pretty early in the evening, for sure. Just don't let your schooling or grades slip, as that should be your #1 priority. It's impressive that you are willing to work so hard to complete school, and it's great for you that you will be earning this much money. You are really fortunate. Good Luck.

That is awesome! :) The pay isn't that high here, especially for retail. You must be in a bigger city? :) I have worked at target. Enjoy the discounts! :) You also get a discount at Mervyn's and I believe Dillards??? I forgot... LOL

Congrats on your new job!!I hope it allows you to continue your night schooling without effecting your health or grades. Realizing the job is probably a stop-gap until you finish your schooling,I hope you are able to "keep your eyes on the prize" and continue reaching your goal.

That is great! But if you are going to be working from 4 in the morning til 12 in the afternoon and then going to school at night, when will you ever sleep???? That's a fabulous pay though. I have heard rumours that Target will be coming to our area, can't wait to see if they start hiring, lol. I could use a job with pay like that.
