TJmaxx
Cashier (Current Employee), Providence, RI – May 7, 2013
Pros: i get to get out of the house and meet people
Cons: not enough money, and the hours are all over the place.
There is no typical day at work. It changes from day to day. I have been in retail for many years and found out one thing. you have to love people to do this job. My management team is great. All great ladies that have made it and continue to do so. I would say that the hardest part of my job is that on slow customer days when no one is shopping, time – more... goes so slow. My most enjoyable part of the job is the people. The stories I have heard some good, some bad.
I get to share thoughts and get some opinions. – less
