On the cool grey release we had extra adult sizes but they reserved (even though we're not suppose to) for friends and family. *shrugs*

PC Richard & Son
I can sell most TV's, or appliances for atleast 33% less.
You get paid salary + commision (amount depends on product) on the products you sell, and 17% of the warranty you sell.
If you sell a subzero/viking (high end) kitchen, you're making atleast $800, plus 17% off the warranty.
You can easily make over 100k a year, if your volume is around 100k (which isnt too hard if your store is good).
When products get discontinued, you can literally buy them for less than half the sp. (most of the time)
We price match pretty much anywhere, even most online retailers.
PC Richard & Son is one of the few retail stores with some integrity left... been around over 100 years. (No promo)

Depends on butcher. High end butchers are paying a lot for high quality meat. The customer pays even more of course, but it's simply not true that all meat is dirt cheap and sold high. Good meat costs money at every stage of the process.Originally Posted by Paycheck26
I'm a butcher.
I was never much of a fan of pork to begin with but unless you have a trusted Butcher, dont buy pork chops. I've seen some butchers/managers do some effed up +!% to not lose money. And going to a restaurant to pay ridiculous amounts of money for a steak is ridiculous, because they purchase the meat for damn near nothing compared to what they sell it for...unless u got the money to blow....and Butchers def get bunz

some tid-bits about my jobs
mta/nyc transit:
-anyone who takes the L train: the train runs itself about 80% of the time, with me just sitting there...........
- the mta gets a certain percentage from people who use credit/debit cards to buy metrocards
-if you complain about any customer, the mta is more likely to believe you than the workers story
-most train operators and conductors make the most money when they CAN NOT pick a job; once you are able to pick a job, the pay goes down a bit
-if you pay by the ride, try to keep a couple of cents over the base fare on your card if u want a transfer to the bus or subway(example, keep 2.30 instead of exactly 2.25 on the card)
radio city music hall:
-i would not recommend eating the pretzels or the hot dogs;as they are not made fresh,..........
-most of the workers do NOT wear gloves when serving you those items
-most tickets for sold out events, you have a good chance the day of the show to purchase, as some tickets are released
-1st mezz in the center are the best seats in the house
-radio city during xmas time purposely understaffs employees, because a christmas bonus is at stake for the big bosses if they stay within budget............

most wedding photographers/videographers are snobby d-bags who over-charge the %&*# of their mediocre product.
I almost went to fists with two different crews due to them repeatedly getting in my way & ruining my shots.

it does mess with your social life the first few years, but eventually, it does get a bit better...............
i worked the token booths and the train; each has its good and bad................

-Women are the worse at keeping their cubicle/office clean (fingernails, smelly shoes, nasty keyboards, etc)

Sams Club:
-when it comes to stealing, you can steal anything, and the majority of the time you can get away with it. Once had some people walk out the front door with 2 52 inch tv's
- If we are busy, we are not trying to grab a forklift and get something down from the steel, majority of the time we will say we are out of the item you are looking for
-vice versa, if we are busy, the 1st thing we are trying to do is jump on a forklift because with working on the floor, you are also a cashier. if you are on a forklift, you cant leave it
-Managers and Co-managers do nothing. They rely on their Team leads, which is their assistants, to get all the work done when it comes to projects
-in turn the team leads delegate those tasks to who they look over, the floor associates.
-If you are rude, you arent getting good service.
-Majority of the time when someone says 'Well the other store said you had it, so we came here to get it", they are lying. And that other store was lying to you.
-After you check out, if you then put something else in your cart before leaving, 99% of the time the door people will not catch the stolen item, if they do say 'Well the cashier must of missed it'...
-If we tell you we dont have something, then you find it in the steel, we WILL take 20-30 minutes to get if for you, regardless if we are busy or not
-i think this has recently changed, but more than 5 months ago, you could bring back your TV you purchased in 1995 and get a FULL refund for it, and use that money for a brand new TV. Sams has a 100% customer service return policy.
-Buy your furniture from Sams club, if it breaks, gets old, you want new furniture, need money etc, you will get a full refund.
-In the Meat/Fresh department, there is a 150% refund guarantee, if you bring back anything, you will get 150% your money back. Once had someone return $150 of crab legs because one piece in the package was brown, needless to say, we returned it and they got a couple hundred bucks
-In the bakery, you can bring back a half eaten cake and get a full refund
-in the produce department, you can bring back anything that is rotten, and get a full refund/ exchange for a fresh item
Consulting publicly traded companies
-the majority of CEO's of companies are all idiots and they think they are gods gift to earth
- most penny stock companies, are just shell companies that issue stock to their friends/relatives that in turn get sold for a profit
