Pros

I worked in shipping and receiving. I know we broke so many rules there. They had driving the fork lift on my first day. I was taking down pallets by my second week. You learn a lot there since its a hardware store. You get a good work out there. You will never be bored as there is something always to do. You do get to have some fun times though. My co workers were great!

Cons

Most of the time I wasn't given breaks and I never took a lunch. You do a lot of heavy lifting. I would always leave an hour after they close even though my shift would say 2 -10, it was more like 2-11. I was a student then and these hours were just too late for me especially when I had class in the morning.
