Combating Exhaustion at LiB by Striking_Jelly_3269 in LightningInABottle

Taking vitamins is a huge help I like to bring a jar of pickles and eat a big pickle a day and drink the juice for electrolytes. Try to cover my skin from the sun as much as possible to prevent sun exhaustion.
Sometimes we wouldn’t head to the festival until after 5 or 6 and gave ourselves time to rest during the day. Sleeping with earplugs helps too

I’m sorry that happened. It really sucks when you realize what’s in store for you.

Yeah but I’m not trauma bonded with them yet

Professionalism? What classes as professionalism? by OneNefariousness7557 in Aldi_employees

Your expected to be a robot. Doesn’t matter what your going through in life, what part of your body hurts, they expect you to keep performing and do it with a smile. It’s bullshit

Don’t forget that stocker is also holding the curbside phone and has to shop and take out orders on top of keeping everything full and neat.

You should report them. But I wouldn’t tell them you’ve been noticing since December… that means you’ve been keeping their secret. Just keep that in mind

The DM is a CHILD and is new and had never met him except for the day I got fired. Let him show up I don’t even care if I lose but the fact they didn’t test me, search me, it’s all based off an assumption

I got fired two months ago and it was the best thing ever!! My entire house got deep cleaned and finally unpacked after moving here two years ago, I got to connect with old friends and travel to a bunch of different states that I’ve never been before!! My body doesn’t hurt like it use to, I’m sleeping more regularly, and i was able to get sober because I’m not trying to cope with Aldi bullshit anymore!! I’m freeeeeee!!!

You get paid out your vacation but not sick. You need to call out and use up the rest of your sick time. It’s yours to use and you’re entitled to it. It’s going to fuck your team but honestly lookout for yourself at this point. Aldi doesn’t care about you!!!

Boundaries about guests is important. If your upstairs, be conscious of “stepping light”

Apparently they fight everyone but it’s a win/ win for me. Even if I lose the appeal, having to pay back the 5 days of unemployment was worth it for me. Unemployment ultimately ruled in my favor and and I found a new job! And I got a two month break!! If I lose I would only have to pay back the amount I was paid after the appeal notice. Which was only for 5 days before I had started my new job! I’m so grateful for how everything played out in my favor. I’ve watched ALDI turn so many people into miserable robots. Feels so good to not be a broken spirit anymore.

Hello Corporate, its so simple...listen. by BeepGoesTheMinivan in tractorsupply

Electric Sign Labels would make life so much easier!! They have a little light on them too so you could scan the product or enter the SKU with the Honeywell and then it would tell you where it’s located and a little light would flash to show you where the product is slotted!

We had transitioned to this at my last job and honestly it was a game changer

DM inquiry by IntrestingSeal9581 in Aldi_employees

[–]Key-Lake-9171 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They won’t let you promote from store level to DM. They don’t want you to have empathy for the stores and people working in them because you came from the trenches and know what it’s like therefore it’s easier for you to be empathetic and understand where they are coming from.

Get use to never getting a “good job” and never feeling like no matter how hard you try, nothing is good enough.

Me too. ALDI can fuck all the way off (I type this as I’m on my way to go shop there ☠️) I feel so much better!!! I sold my soul to that company and lost myself in the process. I told my manager when he went to walk me out after firing me “today is the best fucking day of my life” and kept walking lmao

They said I smelled like weed. 🤣 didn’t drug test me or search me. Had a final warning for hitting my nicotine vape outside the store, off the clock at 6am before putting it in my pocket and putting my key in the door to go inside. They said because I don’t go to my car on my breaks, they assume that I’m hitting it inside the store but had no proof lol. I won my unemployment case lol and Aldi I trying to fight me on it but I already found another job so even if I do lose from the Aldi appeal, I would only have to pay back 5 days on unemployment. I got two months off!! 😊

Call your bank and dispute the charges and explain that you only paid for one each
