A low-end clothing store trying to pass itself off as a high-end fashion boutique where customers are harassed by cashiers to sign up for the awful Kohl's credit card. The cashiers themselves are harassed by managers to harass the customers, with hour cuts and even job termination if the cashiers don't beg, argue, and hound the customers to ruin their credit score by applying for an unwanted credit card. Essentially the cashiers are rewarded or punished for the luck of the draw on customers who will or won't apply when they check out. Kohls is known for having extreme mark-ups that they call "sales"' such as marking a k-cup pack as 17 dollars (when every other store sells them for 10) and then putting it on sale at 13 which is still 3 dollars more than the original price. And the managers are so incompetent that even when another employee tells them that you can't enter a gift card as a coupon on a post-sale adjustement they do it anyway and end up shorting the customer 5 dollars. Also when their shitty medical coverage wont pass the new Affordable Care Act they cancel all health insurance for non-managers and send their employees a nice letter saying "tough luck you don't have medical coverage, hope you can find a way to be insured". Also the store never has ac so be prepared to sweat your butt off in the dressing rooms and see cashiers fanning themselves with credit applications and gulping water from dasani bottles to stay cool.
James: Hey I thought you were getting some clothes from Kohl's?
Ellie: After I kept telling them over and over I didn't want a Kohl's charge and they kept asking me even after i said no like three times I threw my stuff on the counter and left. Lets go to JCP instead.
