It seems to be different for everyone..I love working here, I've had 4 jobs before this and this one is my favorite. The only thing i dislike is closing tasks bc i find them tedious but i genuinely like the job. If you get hired, get a feel for it and see how you like it and if you want to stay there or not. For me, I dont regret it and actually like my job. I've seen for others that its hell. So it seems different for everyone

The job is unsustainable often times you are damn near killing yourself common theme ive seen at the three separate stores ive worked at (yes I transferred around because I was so unhappy and my dm likes me a lot so he would try and keep me somewhat happy I never have been) I see often people last roughly three weeks then they are smart enough to realize this is a shit show and just quit... Or often I see a partner go from omg im so excited to work here to I fucking hate this job within a matter of months theres great parts to it that will really put a smile on your face however there are also the downsides ive worked a lot of stand all day jobs starbucks is the only one that has caused me to have severe middle back and neck pain my knees are literally weak as my primary care describes them from not only constantly standing running around but also the bending down you dont realize how much it fucks you up until you truly start doing it constantly for months on end... I see people experience "burn out" but it feels more like a depressive epsiode

during hour cuts wanna know much I was getting ? 8.5 hours a week and I was told by my 1st stores SM "you should be greatful I could have given you 5 hours like the 4 people did" ... I transferred shortly after... when pay day came around ya know what I had to do ? Pay my com ed bill on a credit card (thank god I had the option to do so and a no interest for 2 year credit card otherwise that could have gone bad quickly) its a great start I loved it at first until stuff changed drastically and it was physically mentally and emotionally unsustainable
