You have to relocate to promote, load customers in the blazing sun or rain while wearing a tie and slacks, and customers have way, way, way too long to return their product, but I will stick to the one biggest reason this company has employees quit: The hours. If you are single, you couldn't ask for a better job. If you have a spouse/family, you have to be the type of couple that doesn't need very much time together to be happy. If your spouse is of the majority that works a M-F scheduled job, you have to understand that you will literally never have a day off together, excluding Christmas Day, Thanksgiving and Easter. That's it. Every other holiday you actually work more, which means you lose a day off that week, not to mention special sales they do every month which once again takes one of your days off. And if you are a manager or assistant manager, there will be a total of a minimum of four weeks a year where you work open to close Monday-Sunday, which equals about a 75 hour work week. You add this to your schedule from the previous week, and it is normally 12 days in a row you have worked without a day off, potentially more. This means every customer complaint, follow up, and problem for nearly two weeks falls on yours and only yours shoulders. That is VERY stressful. I was top 15 in sales in the entire company when, ultimately, I decided life was too short to add to the dozens of birthdays, family get togethers, births, illnesses, etc of which I had missed every single one of for years. Your family gets used to planning things and knowing you won't be there, and that's hard.
