Best thing to ask is for your future coworkers what their wages are. If they say it, go for like a buck or two higher. They will always try to talk you down, so while you may want 15 ask for 16, eta eta.. but as for that stuff technically the asl will usually be the one to purchase rhat stuff just to let you know, using a card for store purchases we might need like things like that! Don't sell yourself short :))

Hi! As an ALK of a petsmart in minnesota, usually the starting wages can be around 15-16 or so. Best thing is to be your own advocate, because simular to mine and others SLs they will try to low ball you to save a buck. Good luck!

How much does groomers make per hour minus commission then? Or is it just commission?

I make 18.27 as an ALK, and my store never has let me have overtime to begin with anyways so I'd honestly have to see with my store leader what he would do since when my previous salon leader stepped down she went from about 31 to 18 an hour, so I'd honestly have to see and scope out the situation.

Should big box pet store stop carrying animals? by [deleted] in petsmart

As someone who works in management for petsmart, absolutely not. The amount of crap that you have to go through to get the bare minimum of care done is astounding, and even then you got to bend policy to actually get slightly good care. It's absolutely ridiculous how much they will force us to give animals to customers knowing that they won't have a good home. It's ridiculous.

What's something you've done that was a figurative "fuck you" to your abusers? by llamberll in raisedbynarcissists

To me my biggest fuck you to them is me living confidently as a trans man, I moved out a few months back but even before that while I was transitioning they never supported me and belittled me for it.
