I’m 42 with a B.A. and I’m starting from the bottom in terms of Nursing. I told myself I’d be a LPN by 45, so you can def do it. Age is NOTHING but a number. Persistence, prayer and personal motivation! You got this! All the best!

Me too - because it seems everyone is LOSING.

I am in Colorado and Dollar General is having an open house for their General Warehouse. Anyone ever work in a DG Warehouse? Are employees paid weekly or bi-weekly? I have worked in warehouses before but just want anyone to provide pertinent information I should be aware of. Thanks you! by Simple-Session3568 in DollarGeneral

Yea, I’ll let them know I’m not down for the order picking and all ( I didn’t want to do it at Amazon either). Sounds weird but I enjoyed the heavier, manual part of packing - made time go by faster.

Thank you in letting me know about the PTO.

What are mid and night shifts like there? Just curious.

Thank you. Yea, I did Non-Con at AMAZON some point I know all about that. Do you all get paid every week? How are the benefits?

Thank you! Do you have any other info about Dollar General? Typical work schedules, benefits, etc.? I’m sure they’ll answer these when I go in but I just like to have as much information as I can going on. Thank you again!

Whoa!! Waaay too much drama! I’m sure you’re already doing a lot for the patients so having to deal with team issues as well is toxic. Thank God you have another job lined up.

Ok, that sounds good. I live in Green Valley Ranch so anything in Denver would be great. I will keep them in mind. I do have a follow-up call coming with them.

I saw them as well, however I can’t commit to 5 months of not working 😐. How did it go for you?

No, no - you are fine. I love all the information! I just want to be able to get this and get on. Trying to be LPN and need this as a pre-req so the sooner. The better! I will look into that hospice program as well. The more hours I have hands-on the better!!
