    Worst thing

    Mostly disorganised. Got fired unfairly after 4 weeks of working mainly because of disorganisation in the workplace. I got removed for getting an order wrong even though people make mistakes and I didn’t even get a full week of training, I got essentially a day of training.

  • Best thing

    Not a very difficult job.
    leeway when needed & food is provided.
    it’s a safe working environment.
    We rarely get rude customers or complaints.

    Worst thing

    The long hours and the unpaid 30 minute breaks.
    9/10 times you can’t take a break because of how busy it can get.
    As a manager you feel like you’re carrying the whole store.
    Don’t get paid enough for the amount of work load that’s given to a store manager.
