Second, the legality of what's going on is an issue here. How long have you been working at the company? At a certain point you are required to give notice - you should find out. Even if you've been at the job for a very short time, it is common courtesy to give them as much notice as possible.

Third, if at all possible, try to help them replace you. Get your shift covered by another worker if you can. Since it's your last shifts, just work them and do the best you can.

Don't forget that everything you do leaves a trail. Once day you may come across these people again and will need a reference (or a potential employer will call them) and you can get screwed.

I would recommend you finish the shifts you are supposed to do, and be as polite as you can when you quit. Don't say "I quit" - it implies someone did something to you (which may be the case, but you don't want them to think so).

Tell them you are turning in your notice. If they ask why, and you don't want to tell them that you hate their guts, tell them that you found another job that can work better with your schedule or some excuse that you can use that wasn't an option at the old place (i.e. more shifts, less shifts, more comfortable shifts, etc.)

Good luck with your new job!

What you said is fine, "Sorry, got a better job offer." Make comforting noises and hang up. Just don't ever use them as a reference.

Good luck!

EPOS needs to be integrated with electronic pricing in stores by installing electronic price displays on shelves and setting up interactive store links. This could help in monitoring and displaying direct co-related sales value and price variation responses with the suppliers through vendor managed inventory.

Monthly evaluation and comparison of competitor prices and self-analysis based on activity based costing (from supplier to sale) will be required for which EPOS serves as the source for collating information on demand while activity based costing serves as basis of prices. Business growth can be propagated by analysis of profitability and statistics of existing stores to identify trends, for which a formal business case may need to be prepared, needing the involvement of regional managers to assess demand.

Dynamic pricing could involve significant business redesign depending on the present infrastructure and the ability to deliver desired data. In order to record and monitor customer data, key activities such as loyalty card schemes, updating of EPOS to record sales and staff training for recording sales would required to be initiated. EPOS needs to be updated to record and monitor by product range as well as by stores which would facilitate price and product changes in response to changes in demand as well as developing future decision making process.

In benchmarking of competitor pricing and product range, key activities would involve setting up of an integrated data base at head office recording weekly price and product data fluctuations of competitors. New methodologies will be required to analyse total costs per product and its contribution to bottom line in proposing a full costing method for product lines.

Dynamic pricing could also help increase the volume of repeat customers indicating strengthening and retaining of existing customers leading to reduced churn rate. This could be further fostered by use of loyalty card schemes under the supervision of the marketing department. Ordering inventory restricted to requirement saves holding additional and perhaps outdated stocks which results in reduced inventory levels. This effect could be measured by the declining value of products held in the warehouses.

Sales of discounted products taken from EPOS could be a measurement of the effect of higher discounts and increased promotions and marketing campaigns, under the direction of the marketing department, as a causal effect of dynamic pricing.

HOTT!

good luck on the investment banking career!

….Although I'd lose the eyeliner. It's not very investment bankerish

1. Stores that are on sale (for example JC Penney stores)
2. Publicity Company which are expert on sale advertisers or promotions.

But you will never know if it was legit unless you answer the post - ask them for a description of the job responsibilities, hours, etc.
