Opportunity to grow within

Working with Edcon I would say it was a great experience dealt with different customers who had different exception which we had to humour.. My colleagues I would say they were very open and friendly to me that made the job more enjoyable. In terms of learning there is a lot to take because you need to deal with different people so you should always know that there is that 1 customer who will try and make ur job a living hell but never the less that must not get to you..always staying positive makes the customers smile

Pros: Less hours a day
Cons: No cons for me
