*Too much for little pay. They hold that 1 percent commission like it's a carrot. You sell 100 dollar shoes? You get a dollar for it.
*SOPS. Oh my god, the obsession with them. Socks, shoe cleaners, and multiple shoes with one transaction. Meanwhile, you're lucky to get any customers, because their competitors (Ross, T.J Maxx, etc) sell these things for much cheaper. Majority of customers take a glance at a shoe, make a face, leave. I'm sureee it's because you didn't compliment them and ask them two unique questions. Oh, and the ridiculous way they want you to be on everyone's tail while they shop. And the competitive nature creates drama. You will literally argue with coworkers about them stealing your sale or vice versa. It literally creates a divide in the store. I've never seen so much drama, at a SHOE STORE.
