I worked in there on weekends for a third party company "selling" crap software. I put selling in quotations because in reality this meant jacking off for four hours.
I came in, punched in via telephone, went to Panera Bread, ate breakfast, came back, stood around for an hour or so, went out to lunch, came back and stood around for a while.
When I wasn't screwing around in the break room or out eating, I was screwing around with CC employees, joking around with them, making fun of dumb customers. Making fun of a customer that used the term "Gigapixel" stands out.
The worst part of it all was that I got paid like twice the minimum wage for doing this. I heard other employees talk about how execs, store managers, assistant store managers, and district managers made crap loads of money also.
Also factor in that instead of having commissioned sales people, it was like reversed. People that didn't have high sales would get less and less hours. The top sales person at the one store I visited didn't know crap about computers. Another employee lashed out at me for trying to help him explain something that he didn't fully understand.
So yeah, it was a group of high school, right out of high school kids. I had fun, but I feel bad for the people that really depended on those jobs.
