They tied your bonus to MX voices, I was on there the other day and 90% of the complaints are about either having too many self checks or not enough cashiers. Who decides how many registers we have or how much payroll we have? The other complaints... — read more
Is it even legal to prevent people from seeing their family?

Sams, Worst Place To Work
