Pros
50% off food while working, 35% off food all other times (which is awesome!) Flexible hours, but you usually need to work weekends.
Cons
Can be extremely boring & hard to find stuff to do because you’re either just walking in circles looking or folding the same clothes over & over. Low pay.. hardly any hours beside cmas time. I’d recommend becoming a server.
Advice to Management
Abby (retail manager) is so great. Always open to talk to her about anything or ask anything. The only thing is she want some you to SELL SELL SELL.
