Your first ninety days are very pleasant. After that, the management is short-tempered, verbally abusive, and arrogant about their skills compared to yours, still a relative newcomer! Management will purposefully compete with you on the sales floor to show you how great they are at sales, and how lacking in skill you are. They will even announce that intention to your face! Since being fired, I have moved on to a much finer jewelry retailer -- higher price points, pay, and a dreamboat management team, who thanks me every day for my efforts and every sale I make!
