Pros
-Flexible hours -Coworkers can be cool -At least one nice customer a week
Cons
-Do you have a Toys 'R' Us rewards card you want to use? -Oh, well then would you like to sign up for one? -Okay, we are also doing donations for Toys for Tots, would you like to help out with a dollar or more? -Not today? Also, was this purchase for a baby registry? -It looks like this product is covered by our Buyer Protection Plan. It will cover damage for 2 years for only 42.99! Did you want to add it? -That's alright, are you sure? It covers drops, cracks, and spills! -Okay. It looks like some of your products need batteries. 2 AA, 4 AAA, and an LR44. Did you want to pick some up right now? -Your total comes to $100. You know, you could save 15% by signing up for a Toys 'R' Us credit card! That would be $15! -This is what management wants. To be a "STAR" employee, we must "always be asking". And then they only have one cashier working at a time, so the line gets massively backed up since transactions are so slow. -You will feel pressured to get metrics. Sometimes there are even veiled threats of termination for underperforming cashiers. -If you aren't working the front of the store, you will work the floor, and be a customer slave. But you won't have to worry about metrics!
