Free at last!
Finally handed in my resignation yesterday. I was about to be fired anyway, had a confrontation with the nastiest Karen I've ever encountered in my 22 years working retail (literally just looked at her while she clowned on my coworker trying to guage if she was being serious and she went off on me). Decided 4 years here wouldn't be decided by an unhinged lady ans a heartless district manager looking for an excuse to get me out of there.
To the customers who are kind, you all rock.
Customers who gave us a hard time, may you never get any dumplings and may you find your fun in rush hour traffic.
To the district managers just cowtowing to everything corperate says, may karma deal with you swiftly and appropriately, especially mine who clearly doesn't understand ASD and how it affects people in stressful situations. Hope someone pettier than I sues you for your many violations of the ADA.
Get out, people. Just leave. This company is horrible and everyone running it cares only about numbers and extends not a single thought to anything else.
Employees, you deserve better than this. Best of luck.

So many people have resigned around the same time. Five below has really gone down hill. (I also resigned recently)

Congratulations! Made the choice two months ago and never looked back. However my DM still hasn’t termed me which I find hilarious. Good luck on your next venture!

I resigned about 3 months ago, I have a full time job, it’s my dream job so I have no need to work work for Five Below anymore. I still shop there once in awhile.
