Cons

You have to pay for your own uniform The pay isnt the best You only get staff discounts during Christmas (only 10% anyway)

Pros

Great for students needing part time work Plenty of overtime Easy to get a job there Pay was decent Get to meet different people

Cons

Supervisors were horrible and they clearly had favourites. Work crap hours like 3-7 which everyone hates. Too much politics Too busy and gets messy quickly Having to work bank holiday No discount except 10% off for 2 weeks in December lol Customers are rude and treat you like dirt Awful uniform who wants to wear black No training opportunities
