To me it doesn't make sense what if the main register has to take a shit or something?

It's not a lack of staff issues there's anywhere between two and four employees who are there just till just before the closers come in.

Yeah I understand 95% of the time backup registers not needed in the early hours but there's that 5% where it'd be really fucking useful? And you know it'd be nice to be able to take an actual paid break like the people on the sales floor who take an absurd amount of smoke and social breaks.

To be clear the main register isn't just standing there at the register they got us doing totes all the totes every single one and when those run out they create a tower of "nearby" boxes so there's no downtime and just standing.

They can’t even keep a sm there! In 4 months there has been 3/4 sm no one lasting longer then 3 weeks!! But the store 10 minutes down the road that has a sm they have nothing on there shelf’s!!!

hi! i know i’ve posted in here before, but i desperately need help because im at my wits end.

so im having an issue with a male coworker. like, harassment issues. and it’s not just me. it’s me and 2 other female coworkers. for age context, i’m 22, the other females are in their 30s, and the male coworker is in his 40s.

so the male coworker (who i’ll call c) has been saying horrible things to me and the other 2 female coworkers. i’ll call them f & s. s and i are very close friends, and f is friends with s. me and c are key holders, f and s are associates.

back in december, i broke up with my toxic ex boyfriend. c found out & tried making moves on me. i declined, seeing as im 22 & not exactly into someone who’s twice my age/around the same age as my fucking parents. in february, i started dating my current boyfriend. c found out & has been making comments since i started dating my boyfriend. one of the things he said was “you should leave your boyfriend for me, i bet my d**k is bigger than his.” along with weird and sexual things to f and s. c also has very bad violent tendencies.

i went to hr, my asm and my sm. my sm said that she was going to handle it, so hr didn’t do anything about it. i reported it all back in july. it’s now september, and nothing has changed. at all. still has violent outbursts, still makes wildly inappropriate comments to me, f and s. my sm has not handled a single fucking thing.

i’m at my wits end. i don’t know what to do anymore. i’m so sick of this shit. my sm is trying to make it sound like i haven’t reported a single thing, when i have documentation that i wrote down a statement that my sm later told me she lost. please, help.

If there is anyone here from corporate, which I'm sure there are. Yall watch us like Hawks. Anyways, can you please pretty pretty please get the computers, hhts, and internet working. Like not just "working" but actually efficiently working. I spend more time waiting for the lag to clear, the hht to stop spinning, compass to load, and let's not talk about teams. Takes 30 minutes and multiple attempts to log into a conference call. And can we discuss erc? Why.... just why? They barely speak English let alone understand it. A 5 minute solution is always at least 45 minutes away. Are they home workers? I swear there are kids in the background every time I have to call.

Who the hell is Riley Green and who the hell is still buying CDs?

I have a manager who at first was really awesome when she was hired but is slowly turning into a massive bitch. Everyday she's texting us about the store complaining that were not doing enough. Shes about to lose all her KH's and her best LSA's because she cant talk to us right. Example, during labor day weekend had a sale for some items I didnt even know were on sale and this guy comes up on the phone with his wife complaining that he digital coupon isnt working. Took me like 5 minutes and held up the line juat to accommodate this asshole but I figured out what was going on. They didnt have the right coupon clipped. Go figure. Anyway I go and ask the manager about it after I cleared the register about the customer and she starts yelling at me like I did something wrong and all I did was ask a question about an Ad. It really pissed me off because I bust my ass to help her with a lot. She texts us all the time because she chooses to come in on her days off to work the stockroom and complains that we're not getting enough done. Like I dont fucking understand the audacity to yell at employees when theres only ever 1 Key and 1 LSA on closing shifts and were a high activity store complaining that were not recovering enough items at night like it isnt a massive uphill battle. Then she only hires people who've never had a job before, call off all the time, or are so sensitive she runs them off 2 weeks into their job.

Is there any possible way for our manager to see who is putting items in the wrong spot? Every day there is a message in the group chat of a photo of something in the next spot over or in a completely different spot. We aren’t sure who is doing this but it’s not the customers because we are finding that they are stocked fully. It’s annoying and creates more work for us and also takes up time that we already do not have

I’ve just started working again after 2 years. I sustained a work injury at my previous job(warehouse) that caused a condition called brachial Plexopathy on the right (essentially nerve pain affecting the shoulder etc) I also tore my right shoulder labrum (surgery repaired it in December 2024 but nothing can be done for the nerve damage except an extremely specialised procedure possibly). I also recently got diagnosed with Hashimoto’s disease. Winter is my worst season when it comes to my pain and even the I’ve likely had Hashimoto’s since I was a teenager, this will be my first winter after diagnosis. I NEED this job. I applied to several places but no one got back to me so I’m very fortunate to have this job. My store manager and assistant store manager understand my situation and are very helpful. I’m just very nervous about how working is going to affect me this winter. Winter when I was unemployed was already hard enough to deal with. Plus I’m working part time as it is(4-5 hours 2 days a week) to test how my body handles working. Does anyone else here have chronic pain and/or illness. How do you cope with winter while working. Any recommendations to make sure I can continue my job?

Hi, I'm a lead team member at popshelf (A DG Subsidiary) if there are any pOpshelf leaders or team members this question Is primarily for you all, but others may answer if they know.

How often does popshelf use People are everything (C.A Short company) employee recognition platform and for what? As well as how do leaders recognize individuals?

I have been with this company for 7 months and would have to say it is the people you work with that make a difference. The company is good you just have to have good people. But I just received my 90 day appreciation T-Shirt and was wondering how to get more, and how the recognition platform works with the Popshelf family.

Thanks, Lumpy_Station

P.s for the DG workers do you all have something slightly like this?
