Bad management in the mid ranks. The department bosses were all awesome, intelligent, sweet hearts that were hard working and work loyal. The majority of the co workers you do not work with are typically not very nice acting people, at least at work. For me my typical work week started with checking with three or four different departments in which i was an efficient and mostly cheerful worker. So my immediate bosses tended to squabble over who had me for the week. Be it bakery, deli, produce or even a little bit of grocery (a lot of shelf stocking and expiration tag checking and dating in my case). My immediate co workers i interacted with were the same as my department bosses. The hardest part of the job was going back and forth between departments and the mid rank bosses made it miserable for everyone to say the least. The most enjoyable part of the job was when everything got done smoothly and everyone went home with at least no frowns on their faces. And knowing that so many departments loved me and my work ethic made me feel wonderful as a person and a worker. Some of the customers were wonderful people to interact with. Doing my job well and learning new things properly is also a joy.

Everyday I work is another day of each month is fun working with customers and co-workers and I never bring my problems to work. I've learned a lot by working for Carrs/Safeway by working different positions for safeway and helping out when I can or wen I have free time when i'm not busy or when I have done all my products. Management is one position I do not know about but I have learned on what they do and it is a lot of work because they have to manage all there co-workers and teach the new employee's on there job position. the co-workers I've worked with are pretty cool and some haven't treated others poorly and disrespected others but on the other hand the co-workers I've worked with are pretty chill and awesome to work with. The hardest part of my job position was doing multiple things at once and it gets frustrating from time-to-time but other then that its fun and it's also a challenge half of the time. The most enjoyable part of my job was getting to know a lot of customers and employee's at the same time and accomplish a lot of things done as well which was my enjoyment time while i'm working.

Being big didn't deter them from hiring me, which was quite refreshing and encouraging. Staff were friendly and informative, relaying messages accurately and offering assistance when needed. Workplace culture was professional but casual in that you were permitted to be yourself rather than wear a 'customer satisfaction mask' like most places expect. 
Carrs is the reason I have cashiering and cash handling experience, as well as seafood and meat handling training. 
The hardest part of the job, in my opinion, was the setup/breakdown of the cold case each day. Loading/emptying at least 100 pounds of shaved ice put immense strain on the back and shoulders, but cleaning it wasn't necessarily that difficult. Putting the fish/shellfish/meats on display allowed some creative freedom (so long as it drew the customer's attention in a good way). 

Started at the turn of new millennia , after a couple of years it was apparent upper management was mounting an effort to force a liability-proned pharmacy manager, out of his leadership position. For a while they had other pharmacists and senior techs check his work. After he was demoted and reassigned to another location they hired an axeman to facilitate corporate's union-busting efforts amongst technicians. Senior techs were targeted with gas-lighting and the hatchet job was a success. (They had already succeeded a couple of years before when they got the ball rolling to decertify the more powerful & effective pharmacists' union) Most of those techs had weathered tough years of high turnover and performing with a skeleton crew to keep the pharmacy running. The ordeal was made more grueling when a good number of competent pharmacists fled that location. That's the thanks you get for sticking around for a decade and a half, through thick and thin and covering their greedy bums.

Placed orders through a hand held computer, to two (2) warehouse companies.  Stocked received orders the following day.  
These products were for non-food items, such as toys, hair accessories, pet accessories, kitchen accessories, and clip strips
.  
Assisted management, co-workers, and customers when asked for help.  I did not ever have any issues with management, and or co- workers.  They were all helpful and friendly to me.  The job was not hard, at all.  Greeting and helping our customers, and making sure they found everything they were looking for, was a high priority.
 
I loved my job, and meeting and assisting customers, and fulfilling my daily requirements to the best of my ability.  Was only absent for 2 days in 4 years, due to a strained knee.  The 2 day rest was ordered by my Doctor.
I was a hard worker, and did my tasks quickly and accurately.

I was laid off due a store closing, as I was paid through the District Office, and not through the store I was assigned.

This is by far the worst company i've ever worked for.extremelly old policies and they wont change them for anyone,THey dont care nor will listen to any of there employees,Low pay and bad management.store managers are horrible and know very little about anything in the store nor get involved.Benefits Horrible,cannot except tips and if you do and get caught your fired.Most retail stores let you wear earings,grow your hair out,keep a small short beard,have tattoos but if vulgar hide them,but they makes you shave your facial hair or just have a mustache like a 1970 cop and makes you keep your hair cut short,no matter what you must cover tattoos even if not vulgar,they treat there employees bad,ceo wont listen to anyone and is stubborn and its earther his way or the highway.By far the worst excperice i've ever had in all my 14 years in retail and i will never shop,work or referr anyone to carrs.

The department managers are great but the store managers leave something to improve on schedules always seem to come out late and front end employees seem less than engaging. My part of the job is fairly simple I run the register, stock, and clean at least on most days. Every so often I need to write in a special order for my boss or decorate for whatever holiday is coming up. I work in the liquor department so that means I get to deal with the occasional angry drunk. I despise this part they are mean and have no regard for those around them. luckily my co-workers and regular customers are a great example of how to work with a great attitude and keep even the most stressful situation light-hearted. All in all I learned that I enjoy being able to help people and deal with stress all while being pulled in different directions.

Everyone is supportive, and the workplace is very positive. it is a great store to work for. The store is good at working with employees with scheduling and moving employees to where their skills will be properly utilized.

The average day in the fuel center is that you clock in and do paperwork between customers. In this post, it is required that you clean the bathroom, mop, do basic maintenance, and provide positive professional customer service.  Most of the job is doing customer service so people skills are a must in this job. This job would be a good fit for students as there is time for mild studying.

The best thing about this job is the management. The management in this job is by far the best I have ever had in my career. They are supportive and promote a positive work environment.  The management truly wants the best for their employees.

Everyday were the best day for me. Every coworkers and customers are so lovely and happy, fun outgoing, and many beautiful things. I learned alot of things that I didnt learn in the past about cashier/customer service. Managers were nice and helping even coaching. I dont think there's a hard part of the job because dealing with angry and upset customers are part of my daily routines. The most enjoyable part of the job that I had is every day I always have customers complementing me on my customer service and make me smile. Along with the managers and coworkers. I miss the environment there.

Working for Carrs Safeway as a Courtesy Clerk was an interesting and fun experience. I learned that satisfying the needs of all customers as important and it enabled me to recognize my interest in customer service. Although it was always busy and tiring, the management, my co-workers, and many customers gave me strength to work even harder because of their positivity and encouragement. The hardest part about the job was hauling and collecting carts from the parking lot into the store in the rain. I think the most enjoyable part of my job as a Courtesy Clerk was the interaction with the customers.
