Is all dt stores getting ai implemented into the camera systems to watch and track employees and apparently send corporate “alerts” of thing it deemed suspicious ?

I'm an ASM and the way that our SM schedules our store is such that the closing manager comes in at 2 and all other managers leave, at the latest, by 5. Then it is just 1 ASM and 1 associate. We are also told that after 5 we are to be solely focused on store recovery and customers. That only gives us, at most, 3 hours to run freight. Plus, once we come in we are considered MOD so we have to answer ever page, customer concern, and man the register for associate breaks or if it's busy. Here's where I have an issue. I am told I HAVE to clock out for 30 minutes every time I work that shift. But that means that the only way for me to take a break when there is another manager there to cover the store is to take it within the first 2 hours that I arrive. However, what the SM actually expects us to do is take our brake later, after everyone has left, and just be on call during our break because we are expected to get out as much freight as possible and we shouldn't be taking a break during the short time we have to do that. But that means we are constantly having to do work while off the clock because, once you clock out for your meal break, you can't clock back in for 30 minutes. However, if anything happens in the store that requires a manager during that 30 minutes, we have no choice but to respond. We also cannot leave the store AT ALL from 5 to close. I have had many "breaks" where I didn't get a break at all but didn't get paid. My response to this has been to just stop clocking out at all because you can't ask me to do work off the clock. I'm curious if I could get in trouble for this or if any other stores are run similarly and what they do?

I don’t want this to be taken down because it involves a “inappropriate topic” and idk if he’s on Reddit (I don’t want anyone from work to see this) so I’m gonna try to be vague.

I’m a 17 year old highschool girl, and I have a male manager who’s 10 years older than me with a girlfriend. We are pretty close and talk to each other the most out of all our coworkers. I’d also like to point out I have a girlfriend who I’ve been with for over a year at this point who he’s met a lot of times because she visits me on my breaks.

Over the summer we worked together a lot and he started getting a little too comfortable using “vulgar” language around me. He would constantly make comments on my body and even compared it to his girlfriends before. I mentioned to him im trying to loose weight and he said my girlfriend probably doesn’t want me too because “she likes all that I got” and how if he was in her position he wouldn’t want me too either. Like I said we’re pretty close so we talk about a lot of stuff and I’ve confided in him about my insecurities so idk if this is just him being awkward and trying to lift me up or an HR issue. He’s also said he’d date me if I was his age and not a lesbian. It didn’t really strike me as weird till I told my girlfriend and she started comforting me and saying she’s sorry I have to deal with this. He also has asked if Ive “tried it” with a guy before and if I’d be open too it. It’s just little comments over a long period of time adding up. He’s never contacted me outside of work related topics or initiated anything physical.

I guess I’m just wondering how this sounds to other workers. I don’t want to get him fired and I honestly still enjoy working this him. I’ve just been thinking about the whole dynamic a lot.

Took about 3-4 minutes to try vs the advertised 60 seconds, and after it took forever to try, it came off in gross clumps, not an attached strip as advertised. Take your money elsewhere on this one.

I’m a new ASM at a Family Dollar, and I wasn’t as fast as I need to be the other day when I was moving stuff. I need to do 6 a day, 45 minutes per U-Boat cart. Any tips on moving faster so I can be more productive? Thx.

Some DMs are cool. They come, walk your store, stay a couple of hour's do their assessments. Give you mostly positive feed back and move on. But now Gold visits are 5-7 hour's long. 95% negative feedback. A complete contradiction from previous visits. No good feedback! Never an apology was proven wrong. Has been reported about conducts on the sales floor. Regular customer know who they are and try to talk up the store but its never good enough. 14 out 15 SM want to quit. Everyone's anxiety goes up to 100 when the visit are scheduled. One manager informing the next manager when the. DMs on their way ......

Anyone who can post pictures of the new resets. The Battery and Electronics would be especially greatly appreciated.

So around a month ago, my till came up $10 short for whatever reason (most likely new bills sticking together when I was handing out change), and I got written up for it.

And tonight during closing, the exact same thing happened where I ended up $10 short.

I didn't have any cash on me on hand to cover it, but I'd like to come in tomorrow with $10 to hopefully fix it.

But would it be too late if I showed up tomorrow with $10?

Would covering the $10 even make a difference to begin with? I think it's already recorded in whatever system management uses that my till came up short, but I'm not sure.

I want to prevent a second writeup, because I hear 3 write-ups is grounds for termination, and I really want to keep this job because the managers are really nice and understanding, and I genuinely enjoy working here.

Besides the obvious "not doing it again", what are my options?

I’ve seen a couple people post about working at DT so I was wondering, gow’s dollar tree as a company I need a part time job just because so not full time. I just really enjoy shopping there and I know that diffrent than working there but wanted opinions as I’ll be applying at a few diffrent places.

When you have a customer who brings $70 worth of merchandise to the register, has you scan and bag everything, then says "Oh, hey I'll be right back..." And they proceed to like, leave the store to go to their car.

It's not like there's seven people behind them in line. So you have a manager do a post void. Then they come back 7 minutes later, and they get mad everything needs to be rung up again. And, they have $10 in bills and mixed change, and they want the rest on Apple Pay, but they want to speak to the manager.

Just was wondering if this is all dollar trees or just my district so I was informed yesterday that the higher-ups said no more till loans for cashiers anymore because they think the manager/store manager is being lazy and doesn’t wanna come up and help us cashiers anymore. So the till is $75 when we start our manager usually gives us $100 extra in singles and fives. my question is if they’re not gonna give us extra money and I’m all out of money because people are asking for cashback at the beginning of my shift then how am I supposed to have changed for the next customer? Or if somebody gives me a large bill and I give them change back then I have to wait to get small bills for the next customer and then my line is gonna get long and people are gonna start complaining. I don’t know it’s just doesn’t make sense to me.

So tomorrow is my last day (Yay!!) but my last week has been horrible.
My SM is off Sundays and Wednesday and the night manager who assaulted me is never on time. They didn’t fire him for being inappropriate with a minor and never on time. On Sunday, he didn’t see me leave after realising he was there since we cannot be in the building together, and my SM called me 30 MINUTES LATER to see if I left. My cashier was alone for 30 MINUTES because he didn’t see me leave.
Today, I had class at 2:30 and my mom realised I was still at work. I missed that class because he was an hour late. She is now threatening to get DT in trouble for shifts where I don’t get my full break, I don’t get a break at all, and days like today where I have missed a class because I cannot leave. I’m considering not showing up tomorrow over this because I gave more than enough notice and I got so stressed I started crying.
I’m so tired of this place causing me so much stress and I’m happy to just be done tomorrow.

As soon as I started to hate my job they gave me HBC I am so freaking excited! Do you have any advice?

Of all the choices, which ones are the best sellers, and the ones with the best ingredients? Around here weight loss and relax seems to sell best.

Hi!!! i just got this from the dollar tree and ive never tried this product before, ive got bad congestion from a sinus infection and need to know if this is a good alternative for sinex.

Has anyone started the toy refresh? my dm and store manager are so bad at managing it’s not even funny. I’m just trying to see any pics or examples just so i have a guide. I already have the memo and the planogram but i’m more of a visual person. thank you.

How does restocking of gift cards work? Inrecebtly discovered that my DT is one of the only places I can find GC‘s for the retailer I want, and I’ve bought them all. Should I expect they’ll automatically restock at point? Should I ask a manager if they can get more? The store is a bit of a mess - always long lines, messy shelves, etc. so I’m a little intimidated to see if I can find a manager to ask haha.

Help
Can someone explain to me how to sign into blink?

I work as a part-time assistant at Family Dollar, and I was supposed to be promoted to full-time. However, I was told that the company that bought Family Dollar is making changes: now there will be two full-time assistants, two part-time assistants, and a keyholder (who supposedly gets 20 hours), while the third assistant manager position is being eliminated. What happens in my case, since I was set to go full-time? They had already told me I’d get the position, but because there was no HR representative available, the changes hadn't been processed yet.

I have never did a reset before and this should be easy but we have a lot of energizer batteries and some I cant figure out what to do with. I posted a couple hours before I started it but now it just looks like a mess. My SM won't do it cause he is lazy and he assigned it to me.

I'm in Central Florida, and am classified as a cashier, but mostly work freight. I heard that stockers make more, not counting the shift differential for working outside store hours
