      Not a bad job - Cashier

      Cashier

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The job is fairly easy and standard. Ring up customers, push the script to get them to join the company mailing list, bag their items, move to the next customer. Usually there are Floor/Warehouse employees, a.k.a any male who gets hired, to bring the large products ti the front but when it's busy you'll be expected to get them yourself. Not ever a huge problem, really.

      Cons

      Management in these stores is a joke. They're all over the place. Still, they were friendly and supportive, just disorganized
