Pros

Only 4 hours shift a day.

Cons

Cant stand the place and only been there a short time. Only have 2 tasks. Sweep the stockroom and stack by the cardboard/plastic recycling machine and spend about 3 hours a day putting cardboard/plastic into it. Then its compressed and stuck on a pallet. Wasnt propaly trained on it. Shown once then the manager went off leaving me to use it and obviously couldnt do it right. Very few benefits. 10% of stock during christmas. Not allowed to take holiday in November or December. Yeah its busy that time of the year bu the staff should still have a right to take time off during those months.
