Point being, I know the role of a student worker in retail - be a pawn of management and do as they say.
yup, kindof sucks....especially when people talk smack about you all the time! lol, j/k

Warboc...thanks for clearing it up, I appreciate it. My comment was spurred by yours but was mainly a result of a combination between tons of other posts I have seen lately and the kind of crap I have to put up with every day at work. It wasn't that big of a deal, I was just speaking my mind, but it feels good to have someone agree instead of arguing with me.

I swear one day im just going to yell at my boss, "I dont care about this stupid *profanity* job! I have 40 hours of classes and school work on top of this dreadful, meaningless, unapreciated existence. Stop treating me like a neanderthol, if you took some of my classes your head would probably explode! If I didnt have to pay $600 for text books next month I would dare to respect myself and quit this god-aweful piece-of-crap!"
uh..ok..ive said it....sorry for the hijack

I don't believe in all the understocking people do on here, a 90 gallon isn't for just 5 fish unless there all 8 inches plus.

just my 2 cents...for the sake of debate
Well that's why I gave the example of the younger guy at the really good LFS here. The owner takes the store seriously and trains the employees accordingly. We definitely have a few stores here where it is obvious that the owners are just telling the employees to sell sell sell and not training them properly on what the right thing is. I don't want to dwell on this topic because that is not why I started this thread but I do agree that the blame lies ultimately with the owners.
