Dunno - are they the ones that own the store, are they the ones that invest in millions of pounds worth of stock, are they the ones that build up brand awareness so that so many people come to the store, are they the ones who risk every penny sponsoring sports related bodies such as football teams so that the public have a connection with the products you sell, are they the ones that have been in business for decades come good times and bad, profits with the losses?

Finally, can you tell me how much LESS they pay you when you sell little or nothing?

At one point it looked like they were going to go under, lucky to still have the store there to work in.

I can see what you are all saying but at 3.93 an hour for me to sell that much is just a bit frustrating! Oh well!
