Why Sears Sucks

Besides the obvious lack of service, terrible pricing system and how so many of the people who work there are not fit for the gene pool, Sears has this moronic policy about closing.

First off, they force the cashiers to do the job of the MCAs after the store closes. This is a horrible strategy because cashiers generally have no idea where stuff goes and we just wander around aimlessly for awhile looking for places to stash the go backs.
Second, Sears has a strict clock punch schedule which is really dumb since when I signed up they said we have a 6 minute period of leeway both clocking in and out. I clocked out 4 minutes early today and they had a hissy fit.
Thirdly, the managers tell us cashiers to close before the listed closing time. The Loss-Pervention guys tell us that we cannot close before closing time due to store policy nation wide. See, this puts me in a dilema. Do I directly disobey my manager or invoke the wrath of a short fat balding guy who carries a long piece of plastic pipeing as if it were a quarterstaff?

Working sucks.
