Pros

Its an active job that will get you in shape and strong. It's simple and straight to the point, with full time 40hrs a week you could be looking at little over $2050 every month which isnt that bad. Plus depending on the location you work, you can help customers with "carry outs" mostly older people or big team lift items and some if not most customers will tip, ive gotten up to $60 in tips in a day a couple of times. So with 40hrs a week figure anywhere from $2000-$2300 in a month realistically.

Cons

Terrible weather conditions. When it rains, storms, snows etc etc most locations still expect Cart Attendants to still be out in those conditions thinking that a romper or something of that sort will help... There are supposedly written rules about when lighting and other dangerous weather like strong winds to come inside but at my location no one seemed to follow those types of rules except for me I mean for christs sake we're are pushing and dealing with hundreds of metal objects I definitely dont want to be out there in the parking lot when its like that and no one should, come on now simple common sense its really pretty dangerous actually lol.
