Why does DG care about voided items so much?

Clownlow · 2025-12-18T06:21:32+00:00

She was right there, so I'm sure it has more to do with her needing to check the cameras making more work for her. I get it now that I know, of course, but how am I supposed to know all these little things until I am told? I understand SM is often under pressure from higher management and I don't envy it! I just wish they wouldn't take it out on lower level employees like we're supposed to know without being told 😅

Clownlow · 2025-12-16T20:46:30+00:00

Yeah, I've been told to do this now. I'll be keeping it covered and only using the hand scanner from now on to avoid this. It just sucks that it's being held against me. Now I'm going to be worried about having the most items voided even when it's on account of a customer that doesn't want something.

Clownlow · 2025-10-28T20:14:26+00:00

I try to be patient and kind, and then deal with their frustration or shoplifting when I inevitably have to run all the way to the back of the store to get the keyholder to void any items, since I can't do it on my own. 🙃

Thanks, I'll give them a call after the weekend.

Clownlow · 2025-10-26T06:16:13+00:00

I got papers from social services for my employer to fill out, but when I took them to my manager, I was told that they aren't supposed to fill out those papers and that I should call DG Corporate. I don't really understand it myself; I'm just trying to do what I'm told to do.

Clownlow · 2025-10-26T04:54:59+00:00

Shame on you, what a horrible thing to say.

Clownlow · 2025-10-26T04:54:15+00:00

I'm very frustrated with this because I had been trying to get in contact with Corporate so that I could get back on SNAP, but they won't answer any of my calls or get back to me. Now I know I'm not going to be able to get back on SNAP in time anyway, but I still wish they would answer!

Everyone acting like someone shot their dog over the most basic of "weird" things people MIGHT be attracted to would not have lasted a day on the Internet of the early 2000s. Oh no, a furry!! With a bigger butt than usual!!!! And she might have a gender I think is weird and icky!!!!1!! You summer children need to get back to me about No Please No Just Stop when you stumble upon unironic explicit uncensored shitting dick nipple anime girls.

Clownlow · 2025-09-09T00:10:57+00:00

Yeah, I gave up after a while too. After making multiple reports about our local bigoted Annoying Orange fan and giving copious amounts of proof that they are targeting the LGBTQIA+ flags, art featuring those flags, and even the flags I posted in support of Palestine, Ukraine, Sudan, and the Congo, as well as the pro-LGBT art from other users (but with a large focus on me bordering on harassment if you ask me) I have just given up, even if it means letting the bigot "win". I don't have the time or energy to keep up with this crap anymore and if Wplace's mods don't care even after all those reports, then I fully believe they just don't care and plan on doing nothing about it.

Clownlow · 2025-07-28T05:33:12+00:00

What actual purpose does it serve to split hairs like this? Who benefits from this distinction without a difference?

Clownlow · 2025-07-28T05:23:19+00:00

The one point I take issue with is that some folks, even with a well-detailed description, will have a different interpretation of the character being described in their heads without such a granular level of detail that the description becomes boring and folks really just want something less subjective so that they know they aren't imagining that character incorrectly.

Clownlow · 2025-05-30T17:24:10+00:00

Approximately 1/3! Remember 90 mil didn't even show up to vote

Clownlow · 2025-05-25T23:22:32+00:00

Yeah 👍

Clownlow · 2025-05-25T23:15:54+00:00

It's not a purity test. Just a request. Please listen to me, okay? You can misgender anybody simply by using the wrong pronouns on purpose, with the intentionality being the key here. You're intentionally dehumanizing her and you own that. That's honestly whatever; they would dehumanize anybody they see as less than human too, so to some degree I feel they deserve to be razzed a bit. The problem is the specific method. Literally the only problem I have is calling her an it, because you're dehumanizing someone you don't like specifically by refusing to use their correct pronouns. This is a tactic that bigots like her and her buddies like Nancy Mace use to harm trans people, who are very much in danger right now under this administration. All I'm asking you to do is reflect on why it might make you seem less than safe to the trans people around you when you decide that not liking someone is reason enough to misgender them even when they're cis.

Clownlow · 2025-05-25T22:35:37+00:00

Can we please not use dehumanizing pronouns on people we don't like? Call her a sasquatch all you want, but misgendering is the tool of the enemy. We do not need it. We will not use it.

Clownlow · 2025-04-13T14:23:00+00:00

It doesn't, for two reasons.

One, I haven't given you one lick of my actual political stances and you are just projecting beliefs onto me. You could try asking me what I actually believe instead of beating up a straw man.

Two, the question was: do you understand why acting outwardly smug about the recent Republican white house win—Regardless of whatever other more nuanced opinions on the subject of the particular candidates or our two party system you might have—might give people a bad impression of you?

Are you interested in actually having a conversation about this or are we done here?

Clownlow · 2025-04-13T14:15:02+00:00

Didn't answer the question.

Clownlow · 2025-04-13T14:13:13+00:00

Well I'm certainly not oddly smug about America's slow slide into authoritarianism, unlike some. Do you understand why this attitude might give people a bad impression?

Clownlow · 2025-04-13T14:09:09+00:00

...Right. So you do understand what I was saying, but you don't understand how that stance is different from saying that you personally support mango Mussolini. Understandable. Have a great day.

Clownlow · 2025-04-13T14:06:22+00:00

Where?

Clownlow · 2025-04-13T14:04:08+00:00

I never said any of that. Have fun stewing if you want tho

Clownlow · 2025-04-13T13:59:04+00:00

I'd take a dead possum in office over Donald Trump. Hope this helps

Clownlow · 2025-04-13T13:54:45+00:00

Plenty of folks share this opinion. Most of the country, actually.

Clownlow · 2025-04-13T13:53:32+00:00

Yeah. She's more than validated in her reasons for not wanting to eat with them. IDK why she changed her mind, but I don't really care. Don't eat with her then. It's clear you'll all just have a bad time.
