This is for all of you who work front end.
You're amazing and I don't know how you stand it. I could never be a cashier (lol, sorry I mean SERVICE AND ENGAGEMENT ADVOCATE). Besides the fact that I get insane anxiety at the lanes, holy shit I wouldn't be able to stand doing the same thing over and over and not being able to walk away. Also constantly dealing with guests. I like being on the sales floor because I am not always dealing with people. I like helping people but damn not constantly. Also having to take so much shit from guests and their dumb bs. I was a cashier (not retail, think very busy chuck e cheese type business) and I really don't know how I lasted 6 years there. SCO seems so boring. I have one girl at my store who works it nearly every day and she seems dead inside.
Guest service is really the only thing I think I would like just because I like problem solving and fixing issues. Would hate to deal with irate guests but once I was comfortable up there it would be fine. But damn I don't know how some of you don't accidentally say something you shouldn't to some of the guests that you have to deal with.
Cart attendants - you're amazing. How you put up with being out in the cold/heat and having to get carts that Karen decided to leave way out at the end of the lot and having to clean up people's literal vomit is beyond me.
GSTLs (and GSAs even though they're technically not a thing) - how do you do it? My aunt is a GSTL at my store and I actually don't know how she does it. I don't even know what else to say other than you guys are awesome for doing what you do.
