i never worked for him but seeing as how he'd tell me to do his job ( even though i'm under a different manager/section ) and how he runs his staff, i feel sorry for his employees. |  | |

Starting salary is DOE... technically the pay range could be anywhere from 11.00 - 22.XX plus bonus
I would imagine you would start somewhere in the middle provided you had decent previous experience.

If you are applying at the richmond one don't apply for the front end position, it fucking sucks. Gets so busy and they make you go outside and push carts in the rain and snow.
Apply for merch if you want to do stocking.

you wouldn't be lifting anything like sofas or tool chests, they'll have forklifts for those

worst was probably car batteries ( rare you have to do them )
kitty litter, the 50lb boxes, was the worst
juices is pretty bad too.
boxes of paper
detergent

and just so you can get a grasp of how easy/hard it is after closing, i can solo stock the entire pop, juice aisle, and then some.. every night
not hard, but apply soon (mid-late april) - you wont be getting 12-20 hrs though, more like 25 MIN.
btw, its really easy to turn the job into a workout if your looking to get stacked
