Limit on hours available working part-time

Your are expected to cover all the bases. Sales, order taking, researching products, shipping and receiving, deliveries. Must be good at multitasking and not mind doing it a lot. Our DM was terrible at passing important information along. You would not know if your job was changing or if a new employee was coming until the day it happened. So the pay while adequate is certainly not great. My understanding was that outside sales reps struggle to make over $40,000 +. Even those with a lot of ethusiasm. Company doesnt believe in spending one penny more than it has to. Consequently frequent problems with office equipment that goes un corrected. Frequent problems getting shipments from depots on time. Can be very cut throat as well. Those who are willing to do so are promoted quickly. Turnover was extremely high at numerous branches in our district. I lasted less than a year. Left when they walked in and couldnt tell us if they were shutting down our branch or going to shuffle you into god knows what other job, just suddenly people are moving all over the place and then they expect you to go back to work as if nothing is happening.
