  My first job was at a convenience store. I was told I was allowed to wear black or tan pants and the company provided shirt.

  The first time I wore a new pair of black pants there I was told to wash the floors. I was given a bucket of water and a bottle of bleach to do so. I’d never heard of bleach before.

  Turns out that pouring bleach onto the floor from shoulder level isn’t a great idea when wearing brand new black pants. Your mom might get upset with you and the results. Or she might blame the manufacturer and you might be too scared to fess up.

  … Not that I would know.

  Used it. Got yelled at.

  At this point, if you don’t feel comfortable to tell them why and the consequences of doing what they ask of you, then you might want to start finding another place, because the subsequent events are inevitable.
