    Could be.. Part of the decision was I didn't want to shift to another
    store farther from home and the promotion wasn't that critical to me
    since I knew I didn't plan on working in a grocery store once I got
    out of highschool. Ironically I actually did do that for a couple of
    years after leaving school since it was easier than job hunting at the
    time so it was a like having a break for a while. Just work the work
    hours without still being also stuck in school for 30+ hours a week..
