I just couldn'ttake it anymore. It is extremely stressful, I'm never treated with respect, my job is never appreciated, also it's been a mess in management since I walked through the doors 6 months ago. It needs a lot of help the ATLM needs to be fired, I feel nothing is ever done about situations that take place there or never taken seriously, staff always insufficient as well. I was lied to. Horrible place to work, no work/ life balance at all.

Answered
Umm mm, YES they do! If you don't know what your talking about then don't put the wrong answer on this forum. I am a current employer (store manager) and a multiple felon. Aa long as it is not a drug or violent crime you were convicted of, you will be OK. HR most likely will ask you for more info. To clarify the charges. Now with that being said, be prepared to be under paid!
Answered
No, it is not a must. But greatly appreciated. Hourly rate as a associate is $12.-/hr. I had up to 35 hours at times.

8.50 don't work there. Managers and especially store manager will not stick up for you. As my assistant store manager says " all you are is a warm body" If the managers don't like you, they will go on a witch hunt and do anything to get rid of you.
