When your path begins. A successful Air Force career can be measured in many ways, depending on the goals of the individual. At a previous assignment, three of the base CMSgts would form a board to informally meet with the airmen of each Airman Leadership School class. One of the Chiefs had a basic question he liked to ask each class, and it went something like this, "How many of you want to become Chiefs?- Typically, about half the class raised their hands. This was a real eye-opener for me because I thought becoming a CMSgt was the goal of all enlisted members. It taught me a valuable lesson about personal values, and that there is more to life than reaching the top of the enlisted food chain. Still, if you're making the Air Force a career, I would hope you'd want to get promoted on a fairly regular basis, so there are some things you really need to know to get on the right track.
Ultimately, your career path starts right now, whether you're fresh out of basic training or testing for SSgt "it's simply never too early to start doing things that'll pay off for you later down the road. At worst, if you do the things I'm about to talk about, and you decide to get out after your first or second enlistment, I bet you'll be a better person for it anyway and probably be more competitive in the civilian job market.
As you start out at your first (or new) duty assignment, never forget you only get one chance to make a good first impression.

In the Retail (Department & Discount) Industry Target Corporation (TGT), traditionally an American leader in the retail industry, is faced with forces of a maturing industry. From outside the industry, current competitors, potential competitors, and global industries forces are putting pressure on their core business, which is seen as too complacent in an opportunistic environment.
