[nabs-l] mall or customer service jobs

[Ashley Bramlett]

Sales associates show people around the store and you have to see 
merchandise and read labels. There people who walk around looking for 
customers. Like every store has help wanted signs for them and cashiers; we 
can't do that.

I think a guest services job would be doable because you answer 
customer/visitor questions; it’s all oral.

Hi Ashley,
What's a sales associate? Why can't you do that job?
I haven't done ticket sales or guest services but both of those jobs
sound like they would be totally accessible.
Best,
Arielle
