Staff at Dollar General says phukk it quits mid shift shuts store down
MINERAL POINT, Wis. (WKOW) – The Dollar General convenience store in Mineral Point faced an unexpected closure over the weekend as all of its employees walked off their shifts and quit their positions.
Customers arriving at the store were met with signs taped to the front door reading ‘we quit’ on both Friday and Saturday. The exit came as all six employees, including the store manager and assistant manager, voiced their concerns of being underpaid, undervalued and overworked by the corporate structure. These photos were posted on the Iowa County Confessions ******** page:
"They need to do better by their employees, they need to do better by their customers and they need to do better for the communities they build their stores in," said Trina Tribolet, the former store manager.
Tribolet tells 27 News that she and the staff strongly disagreed with Dollar General’s donation policy, which required them to throw away items that were near the expiration date or that the store no longer sold. They felt the items should be donated to local charities to help the community rather than a landfill. As a result, staff would label items they were supposed to throw away as damaged and donate them to charity.
"These were items that weren’t on the donation list but were totally usable," stated Caitlin Margan, the former assistant manager. “I was always told when I was younger and in school to recycle.”
The strain of understaffing and excessive work hours also factored into the employees' decision to quit. However, it was Dollar General's directive to stop donating unlisted items that prompted the everyone to walkout.

They could have just left and nobody would have even known. Finding an employee in a Dollar General is like hitting the lottery.

Good. They make almost no money, have to deal with the type of people that shop at dollar general, and are overworked.

I like DG because it's quick and easy shopping when you only need a few items. Typically only one worker in the entire store though, if you can find them. They started putting self check-out registers in some of them. It might get to a point where you just self check-out and leave and they come by periodically just to restock shelves

I love to see this. Workers are being exploited and underpaid, while "influencers" are selling their farts in jars, feet pics, bath water, creating mindless videos and making more money than doctors a year.

I feel like Dollar General learned a valuable lesson today: Don't hire a woman as your store manager.

Id definitely boycott this store after this news. They are definitely losing customers. Sure plenty of retard low income normies will still go, but the customer base definitely shrank after this event.

6 employees? Every Dollar General I've ever been to is basically a one man show and they're always a million miles away from the register when you go to pay for your stuff.

Matthew 5:25
"Agree with thine adversary quickly, whiles thou art in the way with him;
lest at any time the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison."
Matthew 5:39-44
"But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil:
but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.
And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloke also.
And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain.
Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away.
Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.
But I say unto you, Love your enemies,
bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you,
and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;"
I worked for a retail company for 16 years, 12 years with no increase in pay then finally management for 4 years at a kiosk and at one point all my employee's were either on vacation or put in their 2 week notice.
I worked 20 days straight without a day off from 9a-830pm
It doesn't matter how bad they treat you, you made a commitment to the job and you agreed to the terms of compensation. If you don't like the job, leave on good terms with a 2 week notice. This is completely unacceptable and now creates a problem for upper management and loss of income for the company.
Not only they have to repent to God through The Lord Jesus Christ, but also ask for forgiveness, to upper management and all patrons affected by this act and go back to work immediately.
They all have to pay a share of restitution for any losses incurred to the company by their actions.
This also applies to our daily life in public, don't start arguments with people to the point of conflict, be at peace with all you come in contact with.
Love your enemies, Bless those that curse you, Do good to them that hate you, Pray for those who use you and persecute you.
This world would be a better place if only we listen to Christ's commandments 2000 years ago and do them.
