they really do have to be all over people in there tho... this girl i know was the asst manager and just got fired along with 4 other people, 2 of which werenteven on any kind of verbal or written warning prior, because of bad audits... youd be surprised if you knew how much people really stole out of that store...im talking like 45 hats in 4 days
sick.gif



no more discount for me

I worked there, I honestly would never work there after college ever. Even my manager who was the top selling manager in the region was making less than 40kwith bonuses I'll pass.

I was assistant manager last summer, (worked there for two years) I made 9.00 an hour, but I was putting in about 60 hours plus, and forced to sell stitchingand the pass they offer

at how I forgot already what it's called.

Accessories and stuff, it wasn't income, it was percentage increase from the previous year, which if you manage lids, is what your bonus is based on.

the cats who work in the store come across as superdesperate to make a sale, and its lightweight creepy/annoying. i dont know about yall, but whenever i go into lids im usually the only shopper in there and imimmediately bombarded with questions about what im looking for, do i need any help, etc etc. i understand that this is customer service, but *#+%, i justwanna go into the store (any store for that matter), look around for myself, and not be harassed. if i have a question, i'll ask....okay /my rant

I was like "COT DAMMMNNN" All the time he had to sacrifice in that store and he was too broke to buy sneakers half off SMH
no lie. one of my close friends was "promoted" to assistant manager. he was asked to put in an addtional 20 hours of work a week. mindyou, he was already working 20+. they offered him a $0.25 cent raise and no benefits. no doubt, he quit that job with a quickness. assistant manager? yeahright, more like assistant....nevermind

QFT... its Lids, not a car dealership. you dont have to attempt to walk me through a sale everytime i come in..

dudes that go into Lids obviously know what they're doing... just let them look around. if they want a fitted they'll cop it, if not they'll leave.damn.

So do regular employees get evaluated on selling anything?

seriously....couldn't say it any better than that.
 
Easiest job in the world...and numbers are EASY to meet. 2.5% Passports and 2.75% Accessories is a piece of cake. Sure the pay isn't great, but find me ajob in the mall that's easier and more laid back.
 
Good lookin out kix

When I was still in high school I was like "Man once I turn 18 I'm applying to Lids. Has to be the easiest job ever". Dudes in therelook all laid back and !%*+

I don't even care about the pay. Most of it is just spending money anyways. I got no bills except phone and tuition which is no problem even from minimumwage.
