"Demanding work hours on inventory days and black Friday."

"It is hard to pick just one reason, I think it takes a certain kind of personality to work in sales. I love to meet new people and learn about what they do, not only in their positions with their companies, but also in their personal time as well. New ideas come from new adventures. In my mind, I not only find a new customer, I build a new relationship that hopefully continues long term."

"The thing I love about being a sales associate is I get to interact with different kinds of people every day and I love the fast paced environment. The thing I hate about being a sales associate is the hours aren't reliable or consistent."

"As a sales associate I am happy to deal with varieties of people and their needs.As a sales associate I hate about myself in my over perfection."

"If a customer was upset, it was your fault."

"I love informing the customers on great products and what they need if they are having computer, television, tablet issues since I keep up to date on everything in the tech world. I do this on my own to inform others. I have great experience with computers and can sometimes tell the customer what problem they are having just by listening to the symptoms."

"I loved working with people and helping during the holidays as people are looking for that perfect gift, but I did not enjoy the micromanaging due to the fact that we were simply seasonal."

"There is nothing that I dislike about my position as a Sales Associate."

"I honestly loved everything about the job. I was surrounded about technology all day and learned many new products. Bonus part was helping others learn about the products."

"I have been working in different gas stations as a Sale Associate for 7 years. I like working in this environment as its friendly, neat environment and busy place as time goes quick. However, one thing that I really don't like is when the customer reacts on small issues that can be resolved if they actually know what they are doing rather then speaking loudly and being all upset for no reason. Its part of the job and I really can't do anything about it instead control myself and smile."

"I love engaging with my customers as soon as they enter the store. Simply asking them questions and helping find what they need at the end of the day makes me feel like I've done something right. There is nothing that I hate about being a sales associate, but to me it is very important to know how to deal with different people with different personalities."

"I love the ability to help people when they are in need of assistance. It makes me feel good to know that I was able to provide assurance to someone in any way, and my job allows me experience that feeling on a daily basis. On the other hand, I don't like being treated as if I'm unintelligent because of the fact that I am a sales associate. It's not fair to misjudge someone because of where they work, but more often than not, customers at my store tend to not pick up on that."

"I like talking to people and helping them. I don't like the office politics that happen. I loved being able to interact with customers."

"I don't love anything about Sports Authority, and hate about 99 percent of it."
