I worked for two different franchises in metro, the first was elite and at the time they were going through a lot of changes and some pretty rough management and I ended up quitting due to negligence. Some of the people that held a higher position made me feel awful, didn't relieve me when I was working a lot after only having three days of training. That being said I looked else where. I ended up at talkmore wireless and thought I found the best place I could possibly be. They say they are family oriented. It took me way too long because I'm hard headed to learn that's not the case. I held up a store almost on my own then without anything but a written warning for so called attendance which almost every time had a doctor's note, they fired me after spending hours doing inventory for the third time alone. Then I tried going back to the previous franchise and was sabotaged by a former employee and I'm heart broken for all the customers I built relationships with. It's a cut throat industry. It's not for anyone without strong will and personality. No matter what franchise you work for remember nobody is truly your friend. Watch your own back. And remember one thing, they'll never tell you exactly what you did wrong. "The company has decided to go in a different direction".
