Anyone ever work for Footlocker/Champs/Footaction?

Never work at a place like that. Wages are ****, hours are ****, dealing with customers is ****.

Hahaha, no way.

The worst job I ever had was working in a supermarket warehouse when I was 17. It was pretty ****ty, but still way better than working in any kind of franchise clothing store.

You gotta start somewheres bro. $hit, 2006 and 2007 summers I spent them at Wal-Mart getting paid crap wages and having to deal with crazy customers. This summer though I finally got the raise I deserved. Just this Wednesday I made $100+ in six hours (compared to Wal-mart where it took me 17 hours to do just that).

I make $100 in an 8 hour day. But I don't have any higher education right now, I'm doing a job pretty much anyone can do.

The money is there if you know where to look. A buddy of mine is earning

Exactly. I started out at GNC working for minimum + comm. I just worked my azz off and kept on getting promoted. I learned my industry well, and even though I didn't plan to stay long term, my work looked at me as an asset. Now I'm a district manager and help product development and I make 55,000 a year and it could have been way more if I wanted to focus solely on commission. If I was was aggresive and a greedy boss, I could have topped 60G.
Take every job you have serious because it could either be a stepping stone or even a career.

I'm looking to get a job at one of these stores. What are these stores looking for when hiring? Anything special?

What should I expect for pay? minimum?

How do discounts work?

Kind of late in the summer to look for a job isnt it?

No. You can never have that mentality. When you want money, you look for it, you don't say, $hit to late to start now.

Your right, but its better than sitting on my ass for the rest of the summer.

Should I be expecting minimum ($8) for this job?

My ex girl used to work at Foot Locker, and she always gave me the discounts. And I think it was like every 6 months or some **** they'd give you a 50% discount on everything for like one day or some ****. I was excited when I got the red black and white "Mars Blackmon" 4's for like 60 dollars when they came out and they were havin that 50% discount.
