For aspirants to the field of retailing- and for those who enjoy Miss Kimbrough's misadventures, here is her highly colored story of her career at Marshall . From her interview, in a remarkable creation all her own, to her muffing her assignments, her tentative efforts to make friends, her painful fumblings in process learning the ropes of getting out Fashions of the Hour on schedule, it was a humbling experience. Hilarious in retrospect, there's an undercurrent of serious exploration of ramifications that make up a big department store.
