    Re: I also got the job!!

    Okay now this is getting wierd lol. I just got home from my workout, about 2 hours after I got the job at Sears. Now Lowes calls me for a job interview! Which place should I choose?

    Has anyone on this forum ever worked at either Sears or Lowes? Which one is better?

    I am already officially hired at Sears, but if my interview goes well at Lowes should I take that job? I am assuming I could get percentages off melamine wood and other stuff I would need to build snake racks !

    Ive never personally worked at Lowes or Sears.... but I know a few people who work at both and the people who decided to work at Lowes didnt last long at all.... but the people that I know that work at Sears have a better and longer run...

    That is very helpful. Thanks for the info

    I have actually heard similar stuff from people that live around here.

    I will just go to the interview at Lowes and see what they are all about. But unless they blow me away and give me some easy job that pays big bucks I am leaning heavily towards Sears. lol

    well i know Home Depot doesn't give discounts at all, so i doubt Lowe's would. i guess they don't want all their employees doing kitchen reno's at a discount! lol!

    congrats on the new job though!

    Re: I also got the job!!

    Both me, my brother, and sister-in-law have worked for Sears. I was working part time and I liked working there. I was stocking so I worked from 5am-9am M-T and 5am-3pm on Fridays. For the most part, there were only 6 of us there in the mornings before the store opened so we would have the stereos cranking... The only reason I quit was because I had a better offer for a full time job... I have never worked at Lowe's. But, as you said, at Lowe's you would probably get some type of employee discount on melamine, wood, and AccuRites... In the end, it will depend on what your goals are as to which place will be better for you. Good Luck and congratulations...
