Pros

Got experience multi-tasking and working in a fast-paced environment. Met a few members of the community.

Cons

The building was overloaded with freight, and I had a great team. It is impossible to keep up while maintaining the store's appearance and checking customers out. Meanwhile, in the summer it was 90 degrees in the building. An hour to put away milk, but there's no room in the back for it and no room in the front because the freezer was out. The smell of rotten milk is stuck in my nose.
