Hey guys,

   I'm new on here, I've been to some of the auctions before and browse the site on a regular basis, so I decided to sign up! So here I am....we have a 55 Gallon African Tank...I worked at Petsmart for 5 years and that's where I caught the fish bug!  :P

Anywho, thought I would say Hello!

how did you enjoy working at petsmart?  is it indeed true that they have you working several departmens and not just fish? that's what kept me away from applying there myself

samantha_84

Yes it's true, if you work with the fish you also work with the small animals, reptiles and birds. I really enjoyed the people at petsmart, and I learnt sooo much from them. I do not agree with everything Petsmart does (fish wise) but even within the fish world, everybody does things differently...no 'one way'

Anywho I know they are hiring...since i left... :lol:

Cheers
Samantha

No...I don't work there anymore....finished school and got myself a big girl job :lol: ....and trust me i know about the discount thing...I miss it...very badly seeing as I have three chinchillas, a hamster, a 55Gallon and a puppy (well he's 5 years old so a dog)

Anyways, thanks for the welcome!
Cheers

well, I have no interest in working in anything but fish..I worked at superpet for 2 years and barely learned anything else other then from fish ..just don't care about that other stuff

and about not agreeing with what they do.. that's all the LFS I would imagion..
