I was a GM at a local store for about a year, got hired on because of my experience with fish and worked my way up. I eventually stepped down then quit altogether due to the fact that I hated the paperwork and dealing with customers or employees that thought they knew everything but were basically so dense they couldn't pour piss out of a boot even if the instructions were written on the heel. Maybe some friends of yours?

Its true that they should be done daily but for a store with 7 mars systems, 21-42 tanks, the pH of each system is only checked bi-weekly on average.

And another thing, Even stores such as Petco and Petsmart will buy from a local, smaller, more dedicated vender before they purchase from a large farm operation so the fish are actually cared for a lot better that you think.
