Cons

If you wear a blue shirt your life basically sucks. My friends have worked as cashiers and baggers and all they do is complain about how they cant get time off and how nobody will work with their schedule and how management is just rude. for example my sister had put in a request a month prior to have a day off so she could take the ACT. When she didn't get it off the manager told her that her part time job was more important than higher education. Their is also a manager who had been fired for sexual harassment but than was rehired. They do not fire people ever. That can sound like a good thing but for those of us who actually show up and do our work this can be very frustrating. If a person becomes to much of a problem they just move them to a different department. Up front management is also very disrespectful of other departments.
