Employees aren’t even asking in order to get a few extra bucks. They’re asking or they will be fired. I, as someone who doesn’t like store credit must ask you and get a set number of applicants per week or I lose my minimum wage and can’t feed my kids. Sad state we’re in.

Closing out a credit card is one of the worse things you can do. Being bothered and “bugged” to death to apply for a store credit card is bad enough..I do not want your cards, stop asking me for my phone number when I checkout and finally stop making your cashiers beg people to open accounts so they can earn a few bucks in their paycheck and you can hike up interest when ever you feel like it..enough already…

I hear ya! But I’m on the otherside Where I work it’s mandatory we ask and we are require to get an application filled out per 1000 customers or we’ll be fired. Just recently everyone had to sign a piece of paper acknowledging it. A retail company I work for previous to my current job was the same way, you had to get an application filled out for every 2o something hours you worked or you weren’t written up and or fired. Neither retail pays good wages nor do they give enough hours and yet they threaten with that! also in times like now where everyone is struggling, jobs are being lost, and the banks are being bailed out….CREDIT SHOULDN’T BE SHOVED IN PEOPLES FACES! Citi financial is the creditor for one of the retails and they’re among the bail out list. WTF?
