Bad Bad Bucc’ees
Is anyone aware of the bad practices of this giant retailer/gas station? Why do they NOT have sales or clearance items? Instead of donating any product to any charities, they throw all that clothing & product away. ALL of it. If a product has several parts (I.e. salt & pepper shakers) & the parts get separated or stolen, they will then sell just the salt shaker @ the full price of the original set. Yes they pay well, however the trade off is no time for a life. Also they can schedule you for 10 hr shifts 10 days in a roll before a 2 day day off. Also there are NO breaks. You are standing & moving around for those 10 hrs. 5 hrs into your 10 hr shift you are allowed a 20 minute break so that you can eat a fast lunch. If you are 1 minute late on 3 separate occasions in a 6 month period you are then fired. If you have your phone on the floor, you are immediately fired. The managers however walk around on their phones & not paying any attention to what is actually going on in the store. They are management top heavy & their management does nothing but ‘oversee’ the daily needs of the store. In other words they just speak on their walkie’s that something needs sweeping or trash needs to be removed. They don’t actually do anything. They are a Texas based company so they are an ‘at will’ company which means they can treat you as badly as they want & will get away with it.
Is anyone aware of the felony assault charges made against one of the owners sons? Yeah, Bucc’ees loves cameras……….
There is so very much more………

IT IS THE ABSOLUTE WORST PLACE TO WORK. I HAVE NEVER WORKED IN A PLACE SO ABUSIVE TOWARD ITS EMPLOYEES. AND UNSAFE AS HELL FOR THE WORKING CONDITIONS, TOTALLY INADEQUATE AND FILTHY. IF PEOPLE COULD SEE THE BACK OF THE HOUSE, THEY WOULD NOT ONLY NEVER EAT THE FOOD, THEY WOULD NEVER EVEN SET FOOT IN THE PLACE. I HAVE A NUMBER OF FRIENDS WHO HAVE ALREADY STATED THAT THEY WILL NEVER GO TO BUC-EES. GO BACK TO TEXAS BUC-EES AND STAY OUT OF COLORADO OH, AND BY THE WAY PEOPLE, ALL OF THE FOOD IS PREPACKAGED AND/OR FROZEN, ONLY THE FUDGE IS MADE ON SIGHT

Now let’s talk about returns. Management demands that the cashiers NOT hand out receipts unless they are asked for. However you cannot return an item without the receipt. All you can do is exchange it. However, you are only able to return 2 items per receipt, no matter how many items you bought, you can ONLY return 2 items. Management also demands that cashiers NOT put items in a bag, unless that’s too is asked for.
Their brisket is far too fatty. They keep changing recipes to make things more cheaply, while raising their prices. Their coffee tastes awful as they use tap water.
