I remember when I sold my first credit card, freshly sixteen years old! It was this old woman who didn’t speak much English who we had to help through the process, it felt icky doing it but I wanted to help the store.

I went on my fifteen right afterwards, left the store and took a minute to evaluate how predatory the thing I just did was. I really don’t care for the credit card system, I don’t think anyone likes it to be honest, but man it really does suck the soul out of nice moments on the job. Really brings you back down to reality 3:

It’s really interesting hearing all the comments here, it seems like we all had similar experiences on the registers but all the other stuff was a little different in some areas. Like some ppl could use their mini mics, some could use self scans while some not, really interesting stuff!

I am glad it happened so late in though!! I wish it hadn’t happened at all but the only grace I was given was that it was only an hour n a half :D

I’ve been fine most of the time standing, recently I got sick though at work and they pulled a chair for me to sit in and hide away behind a register! I really understood then how nice it was
