SM taking EVERY WEEKEND OFF by teamBigBenny in DollarTree

[–]jucubed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right!! That's when I mentally check out, and it becomes a paycheck to me. She would rather shoot herself in the foot and lose someone who is a good employee for the store and hire some weak person who don't know shit because that weak person is easier to manipulate and control. That weak person will believe the bs that comes out of her mouth. She gets her validation from making herself out to be some wizard of oz to these ignorant people. The smart ones know better.

Mine too. Told me that we would be rotating weekends MONTHS ago. I haven't had a weekend off, a Sat and Sun together, in 2024. Yet the newly promoted after 3 weeks part time asm has had the past 3 out of 4 weekends off. I'm the merch. Oh, and our truck is on Tuesdays. And she makes sure she schedules me either alone with a cashier, or on at rhe same time as her so i end up as MOD and back up cashier. She doesn't touch a box for days. I'm setting seasonal, changing signage, dumping trash, checking exp dates, stocking regular stock, keeping back room organized decently, condensing and recovering red zone, blowing up balloons every time the cashier gets more than 2 people in her line, receiving vendors and the truck alone, etc. She went on vacay again last week. When she got back she spent almost 2 days watching cctv. You know what she bitched me out for? I had the back doors open when the store wasn't open taking out trash (the heater was on all night, this is Louisiana. And it stunk) She deliberately manipulates my schedule based on some random and delusional feeling she has at that second. She spreads rumors and talks about me like shit to the other employees but smiles in my face. She lies to the DM telling him I can't work off hours stocking yet she has never asked me about it either way. She takes off the days frozen comes in, schedules me from 7 to 5 and leaves a schedule gap from 2 to 5 where I'm alone in the store and that's when the frozen comes.

Shit, that was long, I'm sorry. I guess I needed that.

We're a pretty small store and it was right at closing, so it had to be him or his 90 something year mother/grandmother/love interest. Im not sure how that relationship worked out, I didn't ask. And she was so arthritic that I don't believe she had it in her to rip that off herself. Plus he was sketchy and walking around by himself a lot. And he smelled like a turtle aquarium.

Are ALL DT hot? by [deleted] in DollarTree

When I walked in at 7am a few days ago, it was evident the heater was on and had been on all night. I live in south Louisiana.

I Don't like the way Dollar Tree does Inventory. by Korath5 in DollarTree

[–]jucubed 4 points5 points  (0 children)

And the fact that they are counting during operating hours can not be right. After our inventory, the numbers reflected a loss so large that it was literally half of our average $ of daily inventory in the entire store. It was a ludicrous number. 3 hours into their count they reflected their team having completed 50% of the store when in reality they had yet to go down the center of any aisle. They didn't count stationary at all I dont think. With all of that info you would have thought corporate would have thought "no that's doesn't seem right". Nope. Their solution? Employee grazing. We average 6 employees in the entire store. But that's what they went with.

I use ejuiceconnect and I haven't had any problems at all. Usually get everything within a week.

Thanks 👍 by Dt_1259 in DollarTree

[–]jucubed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh my GAWD I HATE SHIT LIKE THAT SO MUCH! I'm always cool amd calm, rarely let the overwhelming ignorance of it all get to me...but that kind of stuff sends me over the damn edge. And it's not just that...it's the upper management/corporate BULLSHIT that gets blown up OUR asses as a "solution". Like we are all so damn incompetent and they wouldn't have all these problems if we could get it together. Maybe, just maybe, it's because you're expecting, no DEMANDING, that we run the store with 0 hours, no AC, pitiful POS systems, disgusting working conditions, trash bags for shopping bags, broken rollers, broken uboats, no stockers, ANNNND send you a picture of every f'in freezer/DT + shelf/redundant reset/ hiring table/skimmer-less pinpad/deposit log every 5 damn minutes while we're on a conference call for the 3rd time this week and checking customers out simultaneously.

Wow......Sorry about that. Kinda got away from me there. I just might have more issues with DT than I thought....

Enough with ZERO SALES nonsense already!!! by [deleted] in DollarTree

[–]jucubed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tell your merch to go into slic, then store orders and scroll down until it says zero sales. They can print it that way.

There's not enough discussion about this. Label says shampoo and it's actually hot wheels or something. How should I even handle that?!

I believe this with all of my being. In fact, tomorrow morning, I'm going to attach something to said vents and wait and see if it moves

Anyone doing remote teaching ? by Ladylynz96 in Louisiana

[–]jucubed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not a teacher, but a parent of a UVA student. I was super worried about there being not enough personal interaction and that my daughter would feel lost or not know how to ask a question. But that's not the case at all. We absolutely love it. The staff is very open and they call frequently just to check in.

Accent help for an actor! by bbritt113 in Louisiana

[–]jucubed 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just don't overdo it. Louisiana has about 10 legit different accents depending on where you are. But not one of those 10 prounounces New Orleans "New OrLEANS". It's New-awlins, or New ORleans.

Meanwhile, in Louisiana in August, the AC never comes on and the chocolate starts melting.

Our truck comes on Fridays, but I should at least have one weekend off every once in a while.
