Welcome to Super Mart.
Home of fluorescent lights, broken shutters, impossible customers, bored employees, questionable decisions and absolutely no adult supervision.
Seth Brock has spent most of his working life treating retail less like a career and more like an elaborate social experiment. His best friend Simon is the one usually left cleaning up the mess. Between nightmare customers, workplace romances, stoners selling drugs in the aisles, unexplained animals, terrible management and the occasional minor catastrophe, surviving a shift at Super Mart can feel less like employment and more like combat.

Seth Brock has spent most of his working life treating retail less like a career and more like an elaborate social experiment. His best friend Simon is the one usually left cleaning up the mess. Between nightmare customers, workplace romances, stoners selling drugs in the aisles, unexplained animals, terrible management and the occasional minor catastrophe, surviving a shift at Super Mart can feel less like employment and more like combat.
But beneath all the chaos, bad behaviour and relentless sarcasm are friendships, relationships and the strange little moments that make even the worst job somehow worth showing up for.
Love and Loathing in Retail is a rude, irreverent and occasionally heartfelt comedy about surviving customers, surviving adulthood and surviving the people you work with.
Because retail doesn't build character.
It reveals how little you had to begin with.
