    I’d recommend popping in and asking to speak to the store manager or duty manager.

    I use to volunteer in a scope shop years ago it was some of the best years of my life i wish i became a key volunteer and got into the management so if you your more able to cope with the pressure than me you could really go far in your career Good luck

    Just thought I'd share this with you.  I have recently started volunteering at my local Scope Shop and am really enjoying meeting all the  different people.  I thought I would find the till a bit tricky and it was to start with but it didn't take long to get the hang of it and my Manager is absolutely brilliant and super  helpful if I have a brain freeze and can't remember which button to press.   :).  The customers are all very understanding and patient too.  I am so glad I plucked up the courage to walk in and see them.  I am currently out of work and have been since February but this little bit of Volunteering has really helped me it has added a string to my bow and something else for the CV.   I am considering looking for permanent shop work now.

    Yeah, that's cool...
    I stay quite far from town though, usually it takes me 40-60 minutes on foot to get there, so i'd definitely be doing afternoon shifts... :D
