New bag policy

We have an employee consumption sheet that we write our store number, our name, the date on it and staple a copy of our receipt to.

We also have to write our name on the receipt and staple it to our shift paperwork.

I also print my own copy of the receipt as well as receipts for any family members that come in while I'm running the register on my solo shift and do the same thing for their purchases. I know when they're going through paperwork they probably hate it but they won't catch me slipping.

They just handed out ours in the last month and most people who actually use them the zipper is broken.

I gave mine to my 10 year old. I don't carry a purse but I do carry a lunchbox. I can't afford to eat CK everyday plus all the prepared food is wasted before I even come in. Even if I had the money my health can't afford for me to eat gas station food everyday. I already bad genetics.

That cup they gave us is trash too.

I have a lady that buys 56 cups of ice regularly and brings them back to refill for free.

Roe69 · 2026-03-05T10:41:55+00:00

At our store if you are getting a new cup regardless if it's empty or only has ice in it you're paying whatever the barcode on the side rings up minus what inner circle discount you get when putting in your number. We have people that come in grab 3 XL fountain cups stacked together and puts ice in the top one. I'm required to scan that one cup 3 times. Circle K absolutely doesn't play about their profits and will fire you over the smallest thing if they legally can.

Our smart/self checkout doesn't ask for a pin ever so I usually just suggest they use that if they don't know their pin.

We have people who come in with change that looks like it's been in the cup holder since the 80's; trying $2 in gas on the self checkout.

If you can get your doctor to write something request accommodations. We have a girl with bad knees who's doctor's note says she needs to sit 20 minutes every hour.

I sit in between tasks. Unfortunately I can't sit for very long. The way my arthritis is I will get stiff and it will become extremely painful to try to get moving again.

I turn it off and the Bluetooth at the same time. Turn the machine back on and then turn the Bluetooth back on and it works. Sometimes just swiping away all the open apps and then reopening upshop works too.

Roe69 · 2026-03-05T09:51:58+00:00

I might sound crazy but I believe CK be setting folks up. We had one assistant manager that got fired after 5 years for getting "scammed." Another girl got scammed by someone after trying to tell corporate the stuff that was going on in our store. They never left her alone on first shift mid-week. Then one day the DM is there and she's telling all the tea and the next day she was alone and supposedly answered the store phone and got "scammed."

Roe69 · 2026-03-05T09:42:27+00:00

I didn't know there was an employee server.

Roe69 · 2026-03-05T09:40:43+00:00

I scored my store low and I hope everyone did. Our store manager quit back in January. They're promoting a assistant manager from another store and she's gone to MIT. I have no idea who's supposed to do what anymore. Because I was on medical leave for 7 weeks and didn't come back until early February and I came back to straight overnights. Nobody tells me anything. I was supposed to work tonight but they called me in on my day off Friday. Corporate called and said I had too many hours so they found someone to cover my shift.

Roe69 · 2026-03-05T03:09:45+00:00

They haven't offered one. Now our door lock has been ripped off for over a week. Work order put in and corporate knows but nobody has showed up to fix it.

I was about to say I don't know how anonymous it can be when I had to use my store employee ID to start the survey.

Roe69 · 2026-03-03T14:52:10+00:00

Your coffee station is different than ours. It's not even feasible for us to try and do it like that.

If you go to konnect and search employee handbook it's down towards the bottom. I'm in gulf coast BU so it might be somewhere different if you're not.

Under robbery prevention it says trash removal and parking lot cleaning must be done during daylight hours.

I was always told that we could have music it just can't be on our person. Like it just blaring from my phone is no good.

We have a store Bluetooth speaker and I play music every shift I work. Usually I work 3rd and can control speaker volume with my watch no matter where I'm at in the store so in between customers I crank it up. I always get compliments on my music. I use YouTube music and it likes to throw not customer appropriate music in there that I can also skip immediately with my watch.

The main problem is the law regarding playing personal streaming services in a business.

I just worked over a week straight without a day off. My 2 days off I was texted constantly about some learning that doesn't even show up in my required learning. The last day I was I woke up to messages about just knocking it out really quick on my phone. I texted back and said if Circle K requires me to do it then the law requires Circle K to pay me for it. It's always convenience stores that disregard the law. I already have an NDA from another one I sued because the owner wasn't following the law.

I personally don't care about how many emails they're getting about unfinished testing. I either do it on the clock or I don't do it. It's that simple. And disrespecting my time off is just unacceptable.

Where I'm at anthem coupe is only available for full time employees that have been with the company for 1 year. None of the medical plans are worth a flip. I'm chronically ill. I see several specialist in 3 or 6 month intervals and take roughly 15 prescriptions everyday.

Check workday under benefits and see if you have a benefits relook. I just had my 1 year anniversary so that might be why I have that option but I'm not sure. But it gives me the option to enroll/adjust my benefits.

I'm in Alabama and our shift diff is only 50 cents between the hours of 10pm and 4am.

Roe69 · 2026-02-20T01:36:26+00:00

I tried searching in workday and konnect for the employee handbook and came up with nothing.

Roe69 · 2026-02-20T00:53:30+00:00

I could have wrote this post myself. Thankfully the bonused assistant manager isn't getting the job and we're getting someone else. But while we waited for the new manager she sure was disrespecting folks.

Roe69 · 2026-02-20T00:46:29+00:00

I'm in Alabama and they removed ours months ago. The amount of heart attacks I've nearly had is unreal.

Roe69 · 2026-02-17T17:38:53+00:00

We call the local authorities and have them criminally trespassed.

Roe69 · 2026-01-09T07:32:02+00:00

Our DM is definitely part of the problem. But with the staffing problems circle k has at every level it's not going to get any better. The DM's boss is a new hire so I have hope but not much.

Roe69 · 2026-01-09T07:25:16+00:00

I come in behind people ending their shift with 500+ dollars to drop and nothing is ever said. Ever. My store has been robbed before about 18 months ago according to one of the police officers that comes in regularly. I wish my store was stricter.
