Excellent learning curve
A Typical day at a Busby store includes: Clocking in at 8am, making sure that the store is clean and well replenished, counting the float and placing it into cash register, putting the daily profit aside for banking, having some tea and getting ready to open the store at 9am. I have a great relationship with all my co-workers, we even treat each other like sisters. I have learnt to be patient, kind,loyal, selfish, humble, and to treat your Job like it's your baby. I enjoy interacting with clients because I am a very bubbly person. The most challenging aspect about the Job was the fact that everyone was in competition and it was hard to trust anyone, but I still made it work great on my part.
Pros: Great opportunity to network and aim higher
Cons: Very long working hours

The not so Good Busby
I work in a very friendly environment and and typical day consists of liaising with contractors about project cost and payment structures. i collect quotes, create purchase orders and request payments I have learnt negotiation skills and the ins and out of the business with regards to store development. The most challenging aspects of my job is that we are a team of two and handle a lot of projects at the same time. The company doesn't replace staff but adds additional work into our daily KPA
Pros: great learning opportuinity
Cons: no growth, no structure,long working hours,empty promises
