Don't waste your time at this job, I promise you, you will regret it. Sure I know the job markets hard, and its rare to find a job now a days, only take this job unless you have to!!! And if you do make sure you only work there for four maybe six months tops other wise you'll go insane. First of all when I started they attempted to start me off at 7 an hour and the minimum wage now is 7.02$ an hour or so I hear. I talked them up to 7.50 an hour, and every thing was alright for the first couple months there. Originally the managers there were awesome. However at the start of 2008 there were some changes with the management. People were fired from an already short handed store, hours were cut and I only had 18-20 hours to begin with. For about four to five months I probably on average received 10 hours a week at 7.50$... the check wasn't worth the paper it was on just about. When raises came they said that every one had received a '3%' cut.. however this was not true. People who were good at sales and talking poor people into buying crap they didn't really need received the highest raises. For my hard efforts at selling worthless warranties, and extra products I received packs of gum and candy bars! (just what you need right). Needless to say I was not rewarded for my hard work, and my efforts went un-noticed either that or no one cared. The new store manager (Ryan) they have their has a nice little mouth on him. Asked him for help once and he walked away muttering swear words. I also heard he has temper tantrums and once threw his clip board and swore even more for not making sales that day. One of the other managers (Ken) really made me angry when he made a remark about my appearance... I don't understand how that guys a manger, he simply does not think before he speaks. The only good thing about the job is the a few of the supervisors their the only decent people in that whole dang store! Not to mention if OSHA came in there they'd poop a brick. Because people would carry up to 70+lbs on their head like their from a third world country off very narrow, old, and un-stable ladders from a fairly high self. That store its self actually had the highest amount of workers comp. for Babie R Us store. So obviously no one cares about the employee's to much.

Now my raise was thirty cents... thats right oh lord don't let the almost 700 million dollar R US company go bankrupt for giving me a thirty cent raise and ten hours a week!! The management there isn't personable at all, there was no human resources for the last couple months I worked there and piratically no one cared about the employees.

So if thats the kind of people you want to work for, mangers who could care less about employee's safety, and rides them to sell products and warranties no one needs to get some gum! Oh boy! This jobs for you!
