Pros

I was a store manager for HFT for many years, and then got thrown under the bus and transferred to a new location because of lies and other mistruths about "bottles" and "money". This isn't fair what my entire company did to me after the years of devotion that I have given to them.

Cons

None at all. Very unfair

Pros

Easy job and good pay for job requirements

Cons

It almost seems like people are paid to harass customers, I get there's a script, but no means no I shouldn't have to make the customers feel like the absolutely have to give me their information to shop there.
