    What are your diet routines?

    When applying for a job, is age a big factor of whether you become employed?

    My friend did two shifts a week during school semesters and four during holidays, so no its not too less. It depends on the store, as well as your proficiency as an employee according to a mate of mine. In fact, most of my friends only work about about two or three shifts each week, doubling up...
