Sales associate

July 2014 - August 2018 • Hebron, KY

What I liked

The people are friendly and the job helps one build great communication and organization skills as well as a strong work ethic.

What I wish was different

I wish I would’ve been trained as a cashier since that is a leeway into accounting. Our registers are not operated like most places, so we have to memorize the prices of every item in the store and scan the codes accordingly. Then at the end of the day, we take down the drawers and count the amount of cash we have on hand and calculate sales every night.

Advice

the job is easy and many people take advantage of it. But if you go in and do your job, it will develop you into a strong employee for future jobs.
