Luxury Boutique Security Guard Job in Toronto : Pros and Cons?

Got an job offer for a luxury retail unarmed security position in downtown Toronto and wanted to get some feedback from people who have done similar work.
The job pays around $20/hr, requires a black suit and tie, polished black dress shoes, and it’ll be a standing post in front of luxury boutiques. Day shifts are 10-12hours from opening to closing.

How tough is it on your feet/back wearing dress shoes to stand for 12hours a day?
What are the biggest pros and cons of luxury retail security compared to other security posts?
Is $20/hr worth it for this kind of work? ($2 above the minimum wage)
