[QUOTE="beentheredonethat, post: 105432, member: 4886"] A couple of things that I'd suggest. Like most people on the board, stay in school and finish your degree. Ideally, stay and get your masters, nowadays a bachelors doesn't mean the same as it did 10-20 years ago. You need a masters. Second, there are some great mgrs out there who take their people and promote them, there are others who keep them either because, A, they think they're not superman, so shouldn't be given a goahed for FT mgmt, or B, they are great PT supvs and don't want to lose them. Therefore, if you think about PT supv, check out what the other PT supvs in your building have seen for upward mobility. Like I said, in some areas the mgmt team helps them out, in others they don't. If you do decide to go higher, and don't want operations PT supv job, see if they are hiring people for staff functions such as Finance if that is what your major is. At the very least, you get some finance experience for a fortune 500 company which looks great on a resume. If you do well, you can get in as a FT after graduation (hopefully). In any event, get your degree. If it works out great, if it doesn't you'll at least have your degree and a job on your resume. [/QUOTE]
