I worked for HobbyTown in Boise for a short time in 2012. The manager and owner were so unprofessional and micromanaging that I felt nervous around them all the time. I was afraid to mess up at all for fear of losing my job. On top of this my father had gone to Oregon for major life-threatening brain surgery, so not only was I worried sick about him, but worked for such losers that had no patience or understanding. I also had another job as well. They also had a stupid scheduling system that I was constantly confused about and didnt understand. When I asked my manager and coworkers about it, they got mad and the manager threatened to fire me. When I got my schedule for my other job, I wrote it down on a notepaper and I posted it on the schedule request form. The manager got mad and fired me. I highly recommend not shopping at or working for this store. Action Hobbies provides me with all my hobby needs and they are much nicer and professional. Shopping here supports these horrible and unprofessional people. Besides, Action Hobbies is moving closer to me, I recommend shopping there any day of the week.
