Pros

I was able to do something I enjoyed. Met a lot of great co-workers.

Cons

Micro-manage much? You hired me to "manage" your lab, yet you need to tell me where to 'place' scissors, pencils, trays, tools (etc.) by taping squares off with red electrical tape? Ridiculous. If I had one more conference call with some half-brained corporate moron taking me out of production, I was going to explode. The busiest store in the region and you couldn't make sure I was trained on LensCrafters procedure? AND I had optical experience. I feel bad for the people who don't. They're put in awful situations and are forced to boss around people who actually KNOW what they're doing. It's sad when the (abused) opticians make a lot less than your inept "RGM". Two days after I had to cut lab hours by nearly 50 hours... 6(yes, SIX) know-nothings from corporate came in to check SIGNS. Wow. Do yourself a favor, go find a good job where they treat they're people with respect.
