What I liked
I love seeing people and talking to them, most of them are older and don’t talk to many people so putting a smile on their face makes me happy.
What I wish was different
That there were more hours and more people working
Advice
It’s a great job, they pay you for training and you meet a lot of amazing people. Don’t let one person ruin your mood because you will get rude people that come in.

I loved the friendly atmosphere as well as the staff. If I needed help with where a certain item went, it wouldn’t be hard for them to come help me.

I do wish that there would be a better breakroom.

Just have fun with it. Talk to the clerks and the customers. You are technically selling yourself when you go help/sell something to someone.

CVS cashier
May - August 2019 • Bradenton, FL
What I liked
I liked interacting with costumers, and that I received a fair salary!
What I wish was different
I wish I didn't have to work alone. When the season is slow you work at the register alone unless a line forms.
Advice
Any kind of job can be tough but connecting with costumers and coworkers makes it worth while. Even if it's just a starting job know your worth! You should always be treated respectfully and if you're not don't be afraid to speak out! That's the only way things will change. Thankfully I had a good experience working at CVS over the summer and I was treated very kindly there. Although this wasn't my first job it definitely gave me more costumer service experience.
