    I'm not afraid to say it straight out, especially as I feel everybody needs to know this is one of the worst places to work...Walmart gets all the bad publicity, but my store is equally guilty of many of the same offences against workers.

    NEVER, EVER WORK AT A FRED MEYER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      I work at Taco John's.. a much better version of the Bell, I have been there 12 yrs, I am currently the main night shift manager (yeah teenagers). Our store was named the number 1 store in the nation in sales, out of about 475 TJ's. We also get voted "best tacos in town" almost every year. The vote is from the Rapid City Journal that does a "best of" section every year. The public votes on the "best of" in different categories. I love my job but it does have it share of crazies..customers and employees. I am very proud of the work I do..but am back in school (at age 41) to change careers for my old age yrs. As you can tell I love to write novels..LOL.

        Is that what happens if a Taco Bell and Papa Johns get it together?

              I work at a Grocery store chain that is based in southern Indiana...

              My 'real' job is On-air personality. I work at a radio station out at school, and I intern at a cluster of stations here in town.

              I guess I'm glad I have had to work this shitty job and others because they have taught me a great deal of Public relation skills. I can now deal with listeners thanks to my grocery store experience. Plus I have an endless supply of 'people who suck' stories.

                Franchisee hell

                I run the business office for a Domino's franchisee. He currently owns 10 stores. Franchises suck, we have to follow "Corporate" rules, even when they make no sense at all for our special situations.

                    I currently work in a nightclub, but have previously worked in Target and BigW (cheap version of Target), and lets not forgot that time I did work experience at the Vet!
                    I ride the time, it unfolds a new day,
                    another time, this world would fade away
                    To find true love, is like no other joy,
                    our choice is here
                    be happy for today

                            I went with "other", since I've been retail-free for almost 17 years now.

                            Back when I was still doing time... I mean working in retail, I spent about 2 years in a supermarket. After that, I worked for 6 months in a home improvments store. I didn't plan on that one being so short, but I got offered the job I have now, and of course, i took it.
