I rarely took my (federally mandated) breaks the entire time I worked at Smith's bc if I did I couldn't get enough done and the 1/2 hour of rest didn't seem worth it if I was going to get yelled at later for not doing enough. Like all other retail jobs, they will give you the work of 3 people then yell at you when you're only able to do the work of 2. They barely give you the basics, then managers get frustrated when you ask questions or yell at you when you don't know something. Management does not do training, just the other people at your same level. You will be expected to work alone very quickly and with almost no training. He could have just scheduled me but apparently liked making 2 employees run around unnecessarily every week. 2's manager, ask for hours in Dept 2, and she would contact the store director who made the schedule in the first place to ask about hours for me. After that I also had to fight for hours - working in 2 departments scheduled by the store director who would only schedule me in 1. They will tell you not to discuss your pay with others, which is illegal - you ARE allowed to discuss it and you SHOULD since they're definitely not paying people equally for equal work. I had to fight for weeks to be paid equally. I was hired for $9 and found out my second day that everyone else in my department was hired for $12.
