Pros

The weak 10% discount makes your purchases tax free, then 3% off. 'It's a job.

Cons

Management doesn't post the schedule until less than 24 hours before that schedule begins, making it impossible to know when you work. Revisions are made to the schedule (hours cut) without notifying those who are affected. Low pay with low, not often, raises. Expected to take on the roles of 3-4 people with little to know training at all. Under 6 hours you are supposed to have a 15 min break. *Almost never happens* Over 6 hours you are supposed to have a 30 min lunch break. *Only if you have a reasonable manager on that shift* I've gone 7 hours straight here with absolutely no break....just more ridiculous commands.

Pros

Best job ever, I was able to play with toys all the time. I usually stayed late to open boxes, and play, then I put them back in boxes like nothing happened and then go home, my wife always thought I was cheating because I was late, sometimes 3AM, but I just can't stop playing with toys, it was awesome.

Cons

My wife didn't like my job. She hated when I was late.
