Is working at a supplement store (Vitamin world / Shoppe, GNC, etc.) really as bad as some would have you believe?? I'm applying to employers to find a job and one of them was Vitamin World. There's a lot of talk about how bad they are with scripts, etc. This guy in particular seems like he has an axe to grind, or is that just the ugly truth? newsgroups.derkeiler.com/Archive/Misc/misc.consumers/2010-03/msg00034.html

On the other hand, the vitamin world website says it's the 5 time winner of the #1 store brand in customer satisfaction accroding to consumer lab user survey (go to vitaminworld.com and look near the bottom the bottom of the page). However, good supplement quality doesn't mean they have good sales practices (although it is a positive indicator).

Anyway, I'd appreciate peoples' opinions (with sources if possible (like consumer reports)), especially from anyone with experience or inside information.

Thanks! I look forward to reading what people have to say.

I worked at GNC for a while, and it wasn't that bad. They do push you to sell certain products by putting spiff's on them to make some extra money. But I enjoyed working there and learning about the diff products. I don't know about Vitamin world, but getting the employee discounts at GNC made it worth while.

Just don’t think about that, think about your resume. It is what really important. But if you aren’t sure about your future job position, it would be better to ask a specialist to write the resume for you. And it would be done well, then everything is fine and you will receive the job. Believe me, everything really depends on the resume. See explanation at monster.com

Worked at Vitamin World, It was not bad at all. Yeah they try to teach you a "script" but really it's just sales steps to take. I didn't think it was bad at all tbh. Definitely gained a lot of knowledge from working there,

She rides well and smokes even better, this is where her strawberry-banana side shines through https://missusastrain.com/. Its light smoke is light in the lungs, rarely causes coughing, leaving a soft but sweet aromatic scent throughout the palette. There are subtle fruit notes; berries and melon - but the earthy myrcene cuts through and is the real star of the show. Its effects are not subtle in any way, bringing an overall soothing and sedative effect for the first 10 minutes. I would not recommend it in the middle of the day for smokers with low tolerance. It will lull you, a clear winner for evening dreams and general anesthesia.
