Pros
Love my relationships with my customers. I have a little bit of ocd so love to have places filled with correct product and make sure coolers arebfilled every night along with drink wall. I make sure to have stuff customers have requested to be in the coolers available for them at all times not only because of them but also because those products sell quickly to others also. The only think that keeps me where iam is my customers for now.
Cons
The pay is not great. Not being appreciated for the hard work and effort put into what I do. Iam not a cocky person but I definitely deserve better pay then what I have settled for. I love my manager but when I have to feel like iam walking on eggshells at work when I step in the door or even scared to talk to her about anything iam having issues with... That's when its a problem for me. Which is why I have this site now. I have now also been closing the store every night now for the past 5 weeks I do not get to see my daughter at all but 30 min in the morning to bring her to day care which iam having help funded by familys first. So if I was to not bring her to school a few day in order to spend time with her thru would assume I don't apply or need the assistance so they would stop helping me. I can't live off the pay with this job and be able to support me and my daughter on my own plus find a sitter for the every night I close. I did not sign up to be the closing key holder every night and don't get me wrong I don't mind closing but when iam doing it every night to where iam missing out on my child that's when it becomes not okay for me. Also i would love to learn how to be a merchandiser and the one company I had applied to which was drive line was the only one who had called me for a job offer and they stated that the DG was the only company they couldn't hire people from. So not only are they holding me back from my full potential but they are now hindering my potential career goals.
