Pros

It is easy to work at 7-eleven as a clerk. You have to do some cleaning, and restocking, but other than that, it is pretty easy. The pay is okay, but isn't great. It's usually about minimum wage, but may be more. The pay is low, but you aren't really doing a lot of work, so it is okay. Most 7 Eleven's are open 24 hours, so if you want to work night shift, that is a good option. The shifts are usually 7 am to 3 pm and then 3 pm to 11 pm and then 11 pm to 7 am. I think that the 3 pm to 11 pm is a good shift.

Cons

It can be very boring, and is a little dangerous. There are no benefits, like health insurance or dental or eye care. Also, no paid days off. Also, if they don't like you, they can fire you and quickly have someone to replace you. Another downside, is that some people look down on convenience store clerks, because it requires almost no education and does not pay very well. This can be frustrating, if you're not getting any respect from your friends and family. Also, cleaning can be disgusting sometimes. You get gloves though. Overall, it is not a bad job though.

Pros

Variety for your daily work experience. On a regular basis, it is nearly impossible to go to work without accomplishing something that a customer, whether intenal or external, will value. However, you must source your own honor and be individually satisfied by seeing integral work accomplished.

Cons

Tenacious short sightedness overtly limits potential for useful work; and your family's needs are of no concern. The benefits derived from creative solutions will be accepted, but are not especially valued or rewarded. For all the talk of working problems as a team and from the bottom up, the reality in the field has always been that unless your work can be made palatable or politically useful for one committeeman or another, only some remote user's perspective is permitted as acceptable conversation.
