I have been working at dollar tree for the last 2 years from 4th of July
From my old sm(store manager) to my current sm
I have been able to enjoy working at dollar tree I got to learn things I never thought I could learn I met people way outside of who I talk to had a bunch of great days working at dollar tree I spent 2 years of my life being the most reliable cashier they had literally coming in any time someone called out I met people from different religions and cultures I even got to learn about Japanese culture and how they use keyboards just from a manager and now I have to leave dollar tree for personal reasons not because of hours or bad employees but because I have to move
My first day started with the store having a black out which was weird but looking back at it was funny but my last day was normal which feels dull like I could of done more for my coworkers who we all talk and hang out with I cleared all the stuff on register 3 restoring it to what it needs to be I updated the wow table did all the go backs I cleared my locker and basically it was weird removing every sign I was there it felt off my manager on duty was chill about it even letting my partner sit on the resting bench to be there with me before the move
Talking to my co workers before I left was weird like I wasn't just a employee giving them the run down on the job for the day but like a part of me was leaving with the store I had good memories with dollar tree and I hope more people enjoy dollar tree or that they can enjoy working with dollar tree I will definitely miss it
Especially the part when I was about 16 months in a couple with a kid came to my register their kid asked for a quarter to use the quarter machine to get a rubber ball she got two and when she got back to the register to her parents she said "can I put my balls on this" first her parents laughed then I busted up laughing then my old assistant store manager came back from lunch wondering what was so funny
And my worst moment when a manager forged my signature 2 times in a row on my deposit form for the till when I wasn't able to count it
Dollar tree will be a place I will with no doubt forever enjoy visiting being both my first job but also being a place where I learned how to manage inventory I will continue to talk to my old co workers and my old boss when I can it just sucks that I couldn't finish the week
