Pros

Fairly decent pay (a dollar over minimum wage in my area), have very little problem getting the days off I need, decent length shifts and a fairly steady schedule, job is not too stressful

Cons

POS systems are over 20 years old and barely work, breaks times are far too short (10 minutes, but this includes walking to/from break room when customers can still approach you, often making the break hardly 7 or 8 minutes), doesn't hire for full-time or give any benefits to part-time employees
