It’s a church non-profit classified as a “retail” thrift store.
Meant to aid the homeless and needy.
Here in Virginia, I needed it.
I certainly needed the income because my funds or money have dried up or almost have.
But goddamn, tomorrow’s the first day.
It’s a small building and it’s pretty homely from what I’ve seen of it.
Commute is 30 minutes long, but I’m transferring to another area that’s about 10 to 15 minutes away in a month or two.
I’m on a probationary period as a full-time worker for three months so my job seems safe for the time being.
But I have to do cashier-work, pricing and stocking, and lift to about 50 lbs., among other retail work.
Honestly? Nobody ever had me do cashier-work before in all the time I’ve worked retail before. Is there a video or source online that walks you step-by-step on how to do it? And what about pricing and stocking items?
Usually, I did backroom work before and even that I found a bit hard.
I get paid $13.00, which is more than I received before.
They said it would be busy now.
I’m sure I can do it… but goddamn, I’m nervous…
Thanks.
Yeah, it’s true that they’re providing training.
They didn’t do that at the seven retail jobs I worked at, ever.
me neither and I was also terrified at the thought, but then you realize just how many people do it regularly and if they can do it, so can you
Oh, that’s a good way to think of it!
I sometimes feel like “I can’t do it” because, say, I’m Autistic or disabled.
But honestly, yeah, it’s true, I can do it; I know better, of course, at least I hope I do.
