What I liked

Liked the flexibility of hours and how friendly my coworkers were.

What I wish was different

I wish that I had received more of a raise after being there for so long.

Advice

If you are lazy, don't apply to a retail job. You have to be on your feet the whole shift and constantly picking up after people.

Enterprise Fulfillment

May - August 2018 • El Cajon, CA

What I liked

I enjoyed the fast pace of everything. There was never a second I was bored and the customers made my time there extremely rewarding. It was always very simple to make their day better and I enjoyed being able to help people have the best experience possible.

What I wish was different

I wish there could have been time for more training. I was working an entire shift alone at a register on the third day there. While I was able to manage there were still many things I had yet to learn about the store before I felt more comfortable alone. It would help having more coworkers who knew their position as well.

Advice

Just keep a smile on your face and remember not to take things personally. Being polite and personable goes a long way!

Cashier

May - August 2018 • Oklahoma City, OK

What I liked

I enjoyed my fellow employers. They made the job fun and bearable at times. I still keep in contact with them. Although I was hired as a cashier I was more of a sales assosiate and cashier. I was allowed to work in all of the clothing departments with different employees and managers. Due to the fact that I was a returning worker that had formed a solid reputation with my bosses, I was given the opportunity and task of training new employees. I enjoyed this experience immensely.

What I wish was different

Every so often a manager or two would conflict with one another in what they desired for the individual employees to work on.

Advice

Learn to be flexible while having a bright smile in the midst of customers that may be tempermental and upset.

Check Out Cashier

July 2021 • Fredericksburg, VA

What I liked

I liked the very relaxed and laid back atmosphere. The work is easy and the people I worked with made it fun.

What I wish was different

I worked part time and I did tell my boss that I was free pretty much everyday, but she took that to mean that I could work almost to full time. I did have a few days of training but after I was just thrown in head first. Going from not working in over a year to working eight hour shifts was a little jarring at first.

Advice

Make sure to show up on time, don't complain, and be professional. If you show that you care and respect their time (employees and customers), they will respect you. When applying for the job, I had to wait two weeks before they got back to me and I missed their call to schedule an interview. I called them back and when that didn't work and I came in person to sort things out. They like that because it shows that you actually care about the job. I had the interview right then and there and got the job.
