Pros

• Always a good parking spot, the parking lot is always empty. • A half hour unpaid break where you can leave the building (only for shifts longer than 6 hours). • Co-workers who will share the same despair as you.

Cons

• Anyone in an authority position can never come to an agreement on anything. • Never an opportunity to voice your opinions. • Getting written up for clocking in at 8:01 for an 8:00 shift, or 7:59 for an 8:00 shift, or not taking exactly a 30 minute break, or for talking on the sales floor, or for existing in general. • Reoccurring health problems for working in a dirty environment. • Dealing with customers who get upset for the store being understaffed and not being able to do anything about it. • Working with ancient equipment that only works half the time. • Having so many items to put on a con list that you can't decide what to write down.

Pros

Everything was a pro. That place was awesome to work for!

Cons

The only con is that is no longer a store in our community. Sadly, it went out of business.
