Cashier in Sterling, VA
on June 3, 2021
Good Work Environment
The people there were very kind and understanding! As a cashier (under 18) I would mainly ring people up for non fabric items and to put away unused fabric. If you are under 18 you cannot cut fabric which is a big part of what people come there for. While it was nice working there, there wasn’t much to do since people were mainly buying fabric.

Came into it expecting something easygoing and simple. And for the most part its neither of them for minimum wage.
For an entry-level job I expected it to be fairly easygoing and in someway it is. But at the end of the day its still pretty hardwork for not enough pay. Even if the people are nice and its reasonably simple. But its counteracted by how much random junk that has to get stocked, that isn't really related to fabric or crafting at all. And so many inventory fringe cases that make stocking and cas...

Hard work low pay, but for the love of fabric
Low minimum wage page but did like my work especially with a background in sewing and knitting. I found working a smaller store with a manager with respect and care for him team he hired to make the difference for me. Shame on them as any for pay as low as minimum wage.
