      Not the best place to work, but not the worst.

      Pros

      The work is simple enough and time seems to go by pretty fast. The pay is pretty great considering the amount of work. If you've got a positive attitude, things can be pretty fun. Getting hours is fairly simple as long as you act positive and work hard.

      Cons

      Most customers are rude and don't give a crap about you even though you try to care about them. Although there are the regular customers that are really cool. Work is pure maintenance of the store and nothing new ever happens. It's really easy to get bored, but management will harp on you if you're not doing anything. Store moral is often low. Management is constantly getting moved around between the stores so you constantly have to get used to new people. There are too many restrictions between management and service clerks building relationships.

      Pros

      Great opportunity to spend time with coworkers that develop into a family. Really fun atmosphere, very relaxed and warm. Your hand-eye coordination will get busy, and you will get better at resolving conflicts--with customers and coworkers. You definitely build tolerance.

      Cons

      Very difficult work--my knees and back were always hurting. The pay wasn't very good, and it's hard for your feedback to turn into a new procedure, even if it makes sense for your store, since it's an international brand with international procedures and standards.
