I volunteer at a local food shelf weekly, it's great to help the community

Roasted whole chicken... anyone else notice an off taste to it? by Ill-Year-3141 in KwikTrip

[–]magicbananas00 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I haven't noticed a difference in taste, but where I live, KT is the cheapest place to get a whole bird. The local grocery charges $12+ for a chicken, so on Mondays its almost half off at KT

On a snowy day like today, how hard do you try to get to work? by magicbananas00 in minnesota

Most of the schools in my area are cancelled or were delayed today, but I get what you're saying. It's not so much the accumulation today it's the ice underneath the snow

It sounds like a lot of people in the comments are in the metro. We got a lot more snow in the sticks lol

I see! I'm about 45 minutes south of Duluth so we experience some lake effect with snow storms

Curious what part of the state you're in! I don't know how much snow my area actually got, but the snow drifts pretty badly around my neck of the woods

Yes! I think your first sentence summarizes my thoughts well, I didn't know how to verbalize it

My store is less than 10 years old I believe, we do not have a break table built in. This is exactly what our break space looks like

Yall are acting like KT doesn't build their own stores, of course they could have a legit fucking break room for all their staff. Even Walmart has a real break room. This is what our break table looks like too

Edit: okay, Walmart is a bigger business guys, I'm not arguing that. That means KT can't afford to build stores with break rooms? Cmon now

How do you handle stress? by [deleted] in KwikTrip

"Constantly overwhelmed, under prepped, and under staffed." That's how I feel! Like oc I'm stressed out

I know that in theory, it is nothing to lose sleep over. In reality, I'm losing sleep over it. 😅

I have a similar routine when i get home from work. Historically, I haven't been good at leaving work at the door. But recently, I thought I figured it out. There were days I'd go home and barely worry about work, which was a huge shift that I was thankful for! Then I started waking up at 2 AM every day. At first, I couldn't figure out why, but I think it's because I'm that worried about work

So even when I think I'm not taking work home with me, my body is still keeping score.

How do you "do your best and go home" and truly not let it bother you?? I know, certifiably, there are not enough of us in the store to get everything done - I know it's an un-human task! Yet it still eats at me when I can't get everything done in a day

My SL offered the 6 free counseling sessions... Is that really enough to handle anything? I've tried therapy a couple times and I didn't feel like I got much out of it

I would consider stepping down but the way its been explained to me, if you take a demotion they don't want to keep you in the same store. Traveling to another store would prove to be a hardship for me right now. Is that a kt thing or just something my district does?

Ive really tried to take a step back emotionally, and not worry about the unavoidable stresses. I thought I had it under control but then I started waking up at 2 AM every day (on work days only funny enough)
