Best thing
Team are great, managers are nice. Opportunities to get extra training and overtime at busier times. My manager fits my rota around sixth form.
Worst thing
As it is a DIY store customers ask alot of questions about products which you may know nothing about, sometimes they will get annoyed if you do not know the answer. Delivery days can be a bit frantic particularly, when having to balance it with other duties such as paint mixing if you work in DΓ©cor.
