The shopper in me says "Great!" to the midnight opening time. I’ll be up talking to friends and family anyway, we’ll just move the discussion to the mall. The former retail manager in me say "Yuck!"

Imagine that same feeling in all of your employees that are supposed to give customer service, prevent unnecessary loss, and make accurate change. It’s a nightmare.
