“This is basically one of my FAVEY stores. Unique finds every time.
There was an incident today. New woman(in training)working the cashwrap. She was a breath of fresh air because typically the cashiers are just barely making eye contact, let alone smiles.
She noticed a line forming and asked the other woman to ring people. The other woman refused and said “I’m training you.” It was really just uncomfortable. BUT THENNNNN, the new woman said “not really” and just kept ringing with a smile. I was floored and my heart was smiling from top to bottom. I was very impressed. I would have hired her on the spot because I need people like her. She actually “understoooooood the assignment!”
She probably got fired. I’d put an lol there but getting fired isn’t funny.
I should have hung back and waited and poached her but…. I didn’t have time. Either way! Standing up for yourself and calling people out for being condescending neeeeds to happen more often! The other woman was clearly not “training”.
(I’ve worked retail for 34 years. I’ve been there and said nothing. I’m just happy she got to say her piece!)
You really can’t beat some of the prices, especially if you are a crafter!”
“Easy to navigate the store, everything within reach. They are kind and courteous there, not to mention the two little low rider pitbulls that came right up to me and said hello! I love how they allow animals in the store within reason and manners that is. Thanks for being a cool store dollar general!”
“In general, customers are greeted upon entering, by the cashier. Only a few times have they not had what I wanted to buy. Since the renovations, the aisles are more spacious and the shelves are more fully stocked. Parking is never an issue.”
“I like coming here for a variety of things. They have nice furniture, home decor, food and just about everything without having to go to big chain supermarkets. Their garden section is great. Lots of flower pots in all sizes and nice garden decors.”
