Unrealistic Expectations

Pros

The schedule was the only good part. I worked for MET and they work from 5-1:30 with weekends off.

Cons

Like I mentioned in the title unrealistic expectations; they expect fast perfection. Those two words shouldn't even go together but that is pretty much their expectation. Either you get in trouble for doing your job right but too slow or doing your work fast with a few mistakes. Either way its a lose lose situation.

Pros

Good benefits, decent work environment.

Cons

You will be asked to manage your stores largest commercial accounts, some that spend millions of dollars a year for poverty level pay. My store has 2 of the top 5 PASA's in the district. Their sales where over 1-1/4 million dollars and they are making between $12-$14 per hour. For their hard work and massive sales numbers they were given an apron with their name embroidered.

Pros

It was a job and I got paid, some of my coworkers were cool, they'll help pay your rent, lots of food.

Cons

Lying, foot dragging, low morale, too many people standing around talking, managers don't care if you work hard just as long as you kiss their butt, they hire lazy people that they know have no ambition therefore they don't have to worry about paying them decent money, the people that do work hard get run into the ground and when you ask for more money they find a way to fire you.
