Hey. I worked at HomeGoods for a total of two days. You might ask why. Well, it’s a funny story.
Let’s start with my coworkers. Everyone seemed great. Reed and Wayne are among the coolest though. Sorry guys.
People speak, people laugh, and we seemed to get along well. My work was not easy, but it was great for me. It pays the bills, and that is why we all are here. We may have the occasional breakdown, but at the end of the day we’re because life is hard and it beats living on the street with nothing at all. I would know what that's like.
During interviews I showed up early. I addressed the manager Joe, as sir. I looked him in the eye and shook his hand. Every time we spoke I thanked him for his time. This is a far cry from where I began 8 years ago, at 16yo, anxiety ridden, unable to give eye contact. I’d been fully committed through my employment here. Going back to the our interviews, Joe rarely acknowledged my presence. For most of my interactions he faced away from me, and did not smile when he was with me. For a guy with Asperger’s, I’d done a better job of communicating in my last few weeks here than manager who I later learned was a former marine - so I had a lot of respect for people like him. My great grandfather served in the Korean War and I almost joined the Marines as well. I got along well with the staff, but it takes time for me to open up. I’m always a team player when it’s needed.
Well, I learned that Joe hates being referred to as “Sir“. But rather than communicating this with me during those two weeks, I had to find out during training, and only when told by a top employee. This was after I was laughed at by both of them for saying “thank you sir”. I don’t know. I’ve always been taught this was just a respectful way to refer to someone. I'd mistakenly thought a former marine might appreciate that.
First day was great. Second day came. Instead of caving into anxiety, I went all in like it was Iron Man against Thanos. After a few hours we had a meeting. Then Joe decides, without informing me prior, to introduce me to the whole staff unprovoked. Joe encouraged me to talk about myself, but I didn’t know what to say given my situation. “Hey guys! I’m an introvert with anxiety, I was diagnosed with C-PTSD, and I live with an abusive person who has made my life hell for 15 years. It is a bad time for me, I’m severely depressed, and it is difficult to think about casual conversation while I’m struggling to find reasons to stay alive.” No. This isn’t what employers want to hear from their little corporate slaves. Like anyone, I’m just a regular guy trying to get by. I respectfully declined to speak.
Despite having no complaints and only compliments from my coworkers, this one instance reflected so poorly on me that I was brought to their office where they would pretend to care and pressured me for answers. Regrettably, I believed them. I confided in them about having anxiety and trauma that would surely bring the understanding they were searching for. But after I’d spoken, I took notice of how Joe immediately went to that moment earlier. He didn’t care about my issues. He then repeated to what he said at the beginning: “we’re looking for someone who is friendly, gets along with others, has good attendance and is a team player”. Until that moment, there were no complaints. Despite Joe’s interactions with the others, it came off as if I was targeted. His personality changed when we were together.
It was then made quite clear that I was out. It just further dawns on me how we’re all cogs in a machine. It doesn’t matter if you’re gone the next day, or if you die, the machine keeps moving. 'Loyalty' means nothing if you're treated as a profit. You mean absolutely nothing to these corporations. They'll lure you in with a big talk about family, loyalty, and make promises. But in reality you'll just get treated like garbage or laid off. Or they cover up

Hey. I worked at HomeGoods for a total of two days. You might ask why. Well, it’s a funny story.Let’s start with my coworkers. Everyone’s awesome. Reed and Wayne are among the coolest though. Sorry ladies. But since I’m out, I think the young woman with the ponytail & glasses is adorable. She had a nice smile and cute hands. Mine are Godzilla size. I think she said her name was Katrina. I hope I’m right. I’d hate to get the name wrong and find out Katrina is actually a 90yo woman later.People speak, people laugh, and we seem to get along well. My work was not easy, but it was great for me. It pays the bills, and that is why we all are here.

Going back to the our interviews, Joe rarely acknowledged my presence. For most of my interactions, he faced away from me. He did not smile once. For a guy with Asperger’s, I’d done a better job of communicating in my last few weeks here than a manager with years of experience. I got along well with the staff, but it takes time for me to open up. I’m always a team player when it’s needed.Well, one thing I learned is that Joe really does not like being referred to as “Sir“. I think around the 70 “Sirs” his soul died. But rather than communicating this with me during those two weeks, I had to find out during training, and only when told by a top employee. This was after I had been laughed at by both of them for saying “thank you sir”. I don’t know. I’ve always been taught this was just a respectful way to refer to someone.First day went awesome. Second day came. Instead of having a panic attack at 6am, I went all in like it was Iron Man against Thanos. After a few hours, we had a meeting. Then Joe decides, without informing me prior, to introduce me to the whole staff unprovoked. Joe encouraged me to talk about myself, but I didn’t know what to say given my situation. “Hey guys! I’m an introvert with anxiety, I was diagnosed with PTSD due to trauma from past relationships, and I live with a narcissistic father who has made my life hell for 15 years. It is a bad time for me, I’m severely depressed, and it is difficult to think about casual conversation while I’m struggling to find reasons to stay alive.” No. This isn’t what they want to hear; especially when we all have issues of our own. Like anyone, I’m just a regular guy going through it. I tried to be respectful, and declined to speak.Despite all else, this one instance reflected so poorly on me that I was brought to their office where they would pretend to care and pressed me for answers.

Until that moment, I don’t think I had complaints from anyone. Despite Joe’s interactions with the others, it came off as if I was targeted. His laughter went away whenever we were together.They’d asked me to take a 15 minute break, so they could discuss what happens next in private. It was made very clear that I was out. It just further dawns on me how we’re all cogs in a machine. It doesn’t matter if you’re gone the next day, the machine keeps moving. Now here I am considering throwing it all away. But I never give up. That’s why I stuck through it in the first place. I’m going to find another path forward.Know your value.

Best HomeGoods I've been in! They had everything and a huge variety. I'd definitely return to this location the next time I'm in Hendersonville.

Amazing place, don't often get there. But I found many items that I had been looking for on Amazon.
