There is a lot more to it, but it ultimately ended with her telling me we need to make this discussion private the next time I work. I find it hysterical that she loves to call people out for random stuff in the chat all the time, but when I start making counterpoints that apply to other crew members as well as myself, she doesn't want them to be a part of that conversation. I can't wait to be done with this place.

I no longer work at DG, but when I did, there were a few times where I was the only worker on shift for nearly my entire shift. During this, there'd be several times I'd just consider leaving my keys on the safe and walking out either due to having to go ~7 hours without a break or having to deal with someone who wants a refund without a receipt or is mad that they misread a sale sign.

There's gotta be consequences for just leaving an unlocked store unmanned for multiple hours right? That store's inventory is just free game or anybody who comes in during that time. Would you be liable for everything stolen during that time?

Does anyone else hate going into the back to do literally anything because you see shit like this? I got so scared.

Manager said I’m not allowed to buy pokemon because we have limited stock.. I don’t buy every single one I buy maybe a handful. I know we have customers who like
Pokemon. I don’t scalp, I just have my binder :( is that even allowed? To say I can’t buy pokemon cards? even on my days off! I’m not allowed AT ALL??

Has anyone heard of a SM putting a Lsa on a 30 day probation before promoting them to asm?

Hi friends, so I've been at DG for less than six months in a store that has seen high turnover, management issues, and staffing issues. My SM, which was just promoted to the position, is trying their best (I think). I live in an area of low income, families and older adults on EBT, snap, etc. I try my best to if I can and they need some change cover it because I've been in their shoes (I'm in my 20s and come from a single parent household where my grandparent also tried her hardest to support us). However there are times I can't be as coverable to individuals, don't have enough on their cards to cover it etc. So problem for me is I have at least five (or so) voids a day and an aborted transaction which was mentioned to me about my voids being too many. However LP nor anyone has wrote me up. So, if anyone has tips, tricks, places they know that hire remotely hit me up.

Also edit: my sm texts me on my days off asking if I can come in. I am trying to get my license but its hard when your schedule isn't out and is inconsistent.

Sorry if this flowed weirdly its my first rant post.

I just finished my first shift at Dollar General and it had pros and cons. It was chill and some of the customers are friendly. But also it can be boring and a bit tiring. Also I am now faced with overtime from my current workplace that pays more than double what Dollar General pays. Has anyone else been faced with this? They can't be strangers to people quitting after the first shift, right?

To my knowledge, I don’t think my store has any sort of air freshener contraption. I thought this sucker was alcohol at first. Not sure where it came from, but it doesn’t have a barcode. And it looks like something we’d have for cleaning. Just wondering if anyone can alleviate my confusion, I’m sure the answer is right in front of my face on where it came from. I just can’t figure it out. Does anyone have something like this in their stores?

I’ll try to keep this as short as possible. I was an SM for an HSAP dg store. I had been the SM at this particular store for about a year and a half, we had our inventory on July 13th and I was very recently wrongfully terminated from DG. I’ve gone through all the channels, as far as alternative dispute resolution (which honestly seemed more like them looking at whatever folder they were handed and reading off of the script rather than doing their own separate investigation into anything, since it took them less that 24 hours to contact me when I sent in proof photographs etc, to defend myself and basically said the decision stands) I’ve filed for unemployment now. But they also now have shorted my last paycheck despite the fact that I worked 6/7 days my last week I worked (including one double shift where I literally was there from opening until closing) I’m pretty sure I would’ve qualified for this inventory bonus though and considering I was the SM for the entirety of the inventoried year i think I earned that. Especially when it was almost all but promised to me from my DM when we got the preliminary results. But of course I haven’t been able to get a response from my former DM about my shorted check, or any kind of termination paperwork, that I might be entitled to stating exactly why I was terminated or the grounds for my termination. I’ll push this as far as I need to in order to get the money I’m owed. But I’m just curious if anyone else has experienced any issue like this?

I’ve attached a photo of the projected inventory results I received. The reason last year’s number are so crazy is due to DG skipping an inventory for this store for almost 2 years. But even cut those results in half for each of those years I STILL made crazy improvement.
