What would you do if you found a co-worker hanging out in the inventory or trash after a big night out, or you had a boss who liked to throw clothes hangers at you when he got mad? During his many exciting years in the business, Mark Scott generated hundreds of colorful stories, many of which wound up in his new book, " ReTales: Chronicles from My Career in Retailing When Department Stores Mattered ".

ReTales is a compilation of stories from this period, the story of a time when a merchant was responsible for the product from cradle to grave, and the eclectic bunch of unforgettable characters I worked for and with.
