Pros

Nothing really. Worked there during college. Flexible scheduling. Can't think of anything else. Have I reached the word limit yet?

Cons

The employee handbook stated that unprofessional hairstyles such as Mohawks, Afros, braids, or dreadlocks would not be tolerated. So I guess I needed straight extensions so I wouldn't look so, you know, Black.
