Pros

My boss is a decent person, so I have it better than most. He makes every effort to give us the hours we want, without screwing us out of having a life. Except on third shift, you usually have at least one teammate to divide the work with. You don't have to stay at the register all day, you don't have to stock all day, or be outside tending the grounds. I used to work in the main store, and I asked to transfer out to the gas station because I get better hours, and better customers. They come in and pay for gas. They don't argue about the price of everything. Best of all, they leave their screaming children out in the car.

Cons

There's no cameras to catch drive-offs. Cashiers are supposed to watch the pumps while ringing up customers, but that requires looking in two directions at the same time. We're supposed to greet everyone at the pump, which gets pretty annoying. the pumps are arranged so you can't see plates, and if something larger than a sedan parks in front, you can't see the car at a further pump. most of the time you never see the customer's face, yet you catch flack for every drive-off. Also, Customers think you have far more control over the pumps than you do.

Overall pay is not that great and raises do not come around very often. Benifits (medical) are poor, but afordable. Vision benifit is very minimal.

Pros

Its a job. In today's economy you need to take a job whenever you can get it to bring in income until you can move to a better job. One thing for sure you will have fellow coworkers who hate the job right along with you!

Cons

Their stupid write ups for every little doggone thing. And I mean everything. I had a lines manager tell me and this is the God's honest truth. "It doesn't matter if you have a doctor's excuse or in the hospital or what if you are schedule to be here you must be here!" We had a cashier who feel ill, rushed to the hospital, missed work and got wrote up for it! Another one got wrote up for missing work for a funeral! Would you get wrote up if you died on the job? Probably!
