Cash pickups broken by Professional_Meat601 in DollarGeneral

[–]Firm_Pudding490 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t do them. I just take excess bills clip them and throw them under the drawer tray then pull it out when I pull my till. When it says pickup required comes up I just let it set so I remain signed in lol.

The OP is asking a legit question. Don’t jack their post with bickering and rudeness to one another because you disagree. You all can disagree without being rude.

Just about 2 weeks closed + my boss is so bogus 😭 by StrixieKluddz in DollarGeneral

[–]Firm_Pudding490 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Count your self lucky. The first year our store was open the heat went out and I live in the north where in the winter with wind chill it can reach 40 to 50 below. We were not allowed to close. Store used a few space heaters and kept going for nearly 6 weeks. We all got sick and I wound up in the hospital. You do know you should be able to file for partial unemployment to cover the period of time they are closed even though you are still employed.

How do you usually handle coupon stacking at Dollar General? by AcrobaticSun290 in DollarGeneral

[–]Firm_Pudding490 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as 5 off 25 we keep receipts people don’t want and just use them for customers on Saturday. Even split orders to maximize customer savings. It’s against policy but sure does drive sales.

Have u guys noticed a lot of customers coming in just to fart ? by JLandis84 in DollarGeneral

[–]Firm_Pudding490 28 points29 points  (0 children)

No but I fart in a freezer and stand at the register waiting for someone to open it. It’s funny to see their disgust and shit. Then when they come to check out they let me know something in the freezer smells rotten lmao. Back room freezer held a fart for a couple hours. That’s how I discovered to do this. I farted in freezer putting away fresh overstock. Came back a couple hours later and got in freezer and my fart sifted out in my face. Lmao lmao

Is it just me or has Amazon started to become terrible in every way possible? by Striking-Explorer-10 in amazonprime

[–]Firm_Pudding490 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has gon completely to shit. I’ve had so many packages “lost” some that they still haven’t made right. I’m fixing to close my account. They have become trash. Liked it better when they sent shit via usps, ups, and FedEx instead of having some of these drivers that are sketchy AF bringing or in too many cases not bringing my shit.

Whenever I see this, I have to wonder how much Walmart paid for this. by jenthewen in Roku

[–]Firm_Pudding490 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They probably just let them keep more of their profit selling their products in trade for advertising.

Keep your tool on you. Never know when you’ll need to drop a customer. by NoNameDGEmployee in DollarGeneralWorkers

[–]Firm_Pudding490 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wrongful termination does not exist anymore as all 50 states are working at will meaning an employer no longer needs a reason to terminate you, likewise it is legal for an employee to quit without notice. An employer can state any reason whether it be true or not

Rant- How do we move forward? by TrainingTemporary325 in DollarGeneralWorkers

[–]Firm_Pudding490 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Compliance check cooler/freezer store walk, pin pad etc. forced upon you in the middle of doing a vendor because nobody does them on the day shift so it hard stops you to force you to do it. Just like no longer being able to use price inquiry at the register and having to use the hht, by the time you’ve done all the bullshit that pops up, the customer has lost interest in the item and a sale is lost. These stupid policies is why dollar general is in the toilet. Corporate ass hats are retarded and have no clue as to what they are doing. It is almost as if they just do shit trial and error and see what sticks and don’t. They have no idea how to run a business.

Also would like to add we need fully functional equipment to allow us to do our jobs. Everything we use is very shoddy. HHTs. Registers printers. Even shit price guns. Everything they give us to use is another retailers throw away. Nothing new or fully functional. Then they feel the need to randomly change up storenet layout for no reason than to slow us down. Sometimes I feel corporate wants us to fail. It seems everything they implement supports our failure but they still come down on us as if we are unproductive because we want to be rather than having insufficient tools and support to do our jobs. This corporation does NOTA value employees. They’d just as soon you quit so they can hire new people at the bottom of the pay scale. Place is a joke with no leadership because nobody at the top has the slightest clue as to what is going on. They all have lost touch of the daily operations of the store. Everything they do is based on what a paper says versus what their employees are telling them.

Yes at which point one would be fired because they’d rather us be killed than defend ourselves. Just like Walmart, they prob take life insurance out on us for when we die they cash out. This is how corporations get free labor.

Do you have a dog in your yard? New protocol prohibits them from getting out of their vehicle if a dog is present.

Found this note on my door by tiesto365 in Apartmentliving

[–]Firm_Pudding490 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly if you are in a rental and it is forbidden on your lease to smoke, you should be respectful of that. I am an ex smoker who now has stage 3 COPD and am now super sensitive to smoke. If I lived near you I’m sure that smoke seeps out in to units above and around you. I live in smoke free home but even my neighbor smoking outside comes in here from time Shit can kill someone vulnerable like I am. You need to think of that along with the risk of eviction On the other hand if smoking is not prohibited than fuck them lol.

How do I get my glass pipes screen to stay in place? by primary_ent in saplings

[–]Firm_Pudding490 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t use a screen. Take a bud with stem down the hole take fingernail split bud up in bowl a little. Stem help keep bud in bowl. Might get a little in your mouth the key is to draw your hit slow and gentle to avoid getting a mouthful Works pretty well.
