At my store we're given around 12 hours a week. Once in a while we get 20+ hours. Around Thanksgiving/Christmas we were given more hours (I know it's because of the holidays).

It's 2017. Credit/debit cards have been around for an eon. You should not be overwhelmingly surprised when the pinpad asks for your pin. You should also know your pin THAT YOU SET for the card you use literally daily. Yes it's green for credit. Yes it will cancel the entire payment process and you will h...
