— Dingdongs And Pencils The best thing about working in the bookstore is that you get to meet a lot of people and see your friends, stated Paula Marcovecchio, a cashier in the store during zero hour. During the early morning rush (8:30 a.m. to 8:50 a.m.), students scram- bled to the bookstore to buy pens, pencils, paper, or even a nourishing breakfast of twinkies and dingdongs. Because of the campaign to fight litter in the halls, students could save ten cents on Hostess products if they left the wrapper at the counter. A lot of students pay ten cents less and then run off with the wrap- per, described Paula. A common question asked was, If we find a wrapper in the hall can we turn it in for a dime? Some cus- tomers got angry about leaving the wrap- pers behind, and some students didn’t even seem to mind paying the ten cents for the cellophane. Students who wanted to work in the bookstore needed to apply to Mrs. Linda Andersen, school marketing and DECA in- structor. Mot only was one credit available for store work, but also one could attain good practical retail sales experience. Reg- ular job requirements Were expected of all employees: attendance, punctuality, accu- racy, honesty, and cordiality. Store man- ager. Les Jenson, decided to get involved in sales at the bookstore because he said it takes care of my time. He was respon- sible for counting collected monies and fig- uring out profits and expenses. On good days the bookstore could make $150 profit from the 3% mark up on store merchan- dise. This profit paid for operating ex- penses, built capital for recording, and kept the retail aspects of the bookstore solvent. The bookstore, a small conve nience store within the school, not only served the last-minute school and hunger needs of busy students, but also set up a real life business training experience for willing business students. Bookstore customers stock up on pencils before hit ting their first period classes. Later many will return to buy fast food lunch items on sale at the store.
