Pros

Discount, can work 7 days a week, location

Cons

Geared to young, horrible if you are over 45. Most hrs given to 20 somethings, even if hired as "full time." Add more and more tasks and expected to be 3 people. Pd $1.00 more per hr to also cashier, then taken away, but responsibilities continue. Only place I ever worked where I made less after 2 yrs than when I started!!!!! In 20 mo, our dept turned over 3-4 times, I went f4rom last hired to only one left and despite having most tranactions, was given less hrs than 3 new 20 something employees. Age is priority, not productivity!!!!!
