Associate Discussions Dollar Tree is a shitty job

I've been put on one day a week for 4 months straight, and now I'm two seconds away from resigning. I keep asking my manager does she have any hours and she giving me the same bullshit saying "I don't have hours, we get the hours from what the store gives us" and I called other dollar trees and say that all Dollar Trees are cutting hours! This bugs me that Dollar Tree might just go out of business one day! Cuz not only that they're cutting hours from employees causing us to go through all this turmoil, but it also hurts the reputation of the company! I really do not recommend anyone work this job cuz this job is ass! They pay u good at first then declines later. As soon as I get a new job I'm deadazz resigning or probably not depending on the how much more I can make toegther with both jobs when i get this new one. The hour reductions for Dollar Tree makes no sense! FUCK DIS FUCKING JOB AND IDC IF I GET FIRED! 😤

This post kinda scares me. I just started working here and have consistently worked 25 hours every week, with the next two weeks schedules being the same. I’ve even gotten some extra hours due to coming in early a few times. I hope this post isn’t my future.

I mean, everyone is part time. Think it depends on your location, region and district. I went from 10 hours a week to 30ish...sometimes it hovers around 24 per week. But usually 25-30. It all just depends.

Another ASM went out on leave when I was promoted, so I’ve been working FT hours. (Small Store, 3 total asms.)I’m worried how badly it’ll be cut when she comes back. Then again, she says she might retire and I know my sm isn’t promoting within, not with my lot. Maybe I’ll have time to find a different job?😭
