Jobs connected to the retail sector are being lost at an unprecedented rate, and it will only continue. 

The reasons are obvious and simple.

1) On-line sales are increasing every year, sales that would otherwise be made in a retail store, thereby decreasing jobs for retail sales people;

2) Corporations are down-sizing staff  to cut as much fat as possible, including closing stores or dealerships, cutting store hours, or hiring less people; and

3)  Information Technology & Mechanization are increasingly utilized by corporations to do the same jobs as human beings, only faster, more reliably, and cheaper.  The rise of the Dow back to 9,000 was based on corporations increasing profits from cutting their largest overhead cost, peoples jobs, both in retail sales and from management.

It's all part of our global transition from the industrial based economy to a information (or Knowledge) based economy.

This transition is both both good news and bad news ; the good news is these retail knowledge workers can open their own Stores for almost nothing if they can learn a few Internet skills, the bad news is their old jobs will eventually be lost.

The answer to this is to go into business for yourself.  Using a Global Internet Business Club called GetZooks, you can now open as many brand name Retail Stores as you like for only $29.95 a month plus 1 time set-up fee for a  International Secured Debit Card and a virtual office with tools, education, and relationships to run a successful on-line retail store. 

This is the good news, you can now use your knowledge to profit for your-self by owning your own stores with products, merchant processing, your name on the store, and multiple locations!  Don't look at it as a bad thing if you lose your Retail Job, look at it as a opportunity to work for your-self, from anywhere, selling anything, at your convenience.  It's easy to turn knowledge into sales, retail sales people do it everyday in stores, it is even easier to do so on the Internet because you don't need to wait for a customer to walk in, instead you can bring your store to them in social networks.
