I started working at Dollar Tree in July of 2019. I was just a part-time associate for about 8 months. I don’t speak for all employees, but I will bet you that the majority of employees would agree with what I am about to say. Whether they are a store manager, assistant store manager, stocker, recoverer, or a cashier, just like I was, I am for sure that they know what I am talking about. Let’s get into the 10 things Dollar Tree Employees want customers to know.
One: Put your cart or basket up where it is suppose to go. It is so annoying when customers ask where to put the basket, when they literally could just put it where it is suppose to go-where they found it. I had so many customers ask me, “Where do I put the this [basket]?” Or they would hold the basket while looking around like an idiot trying to find where the basket goes. For the majority of the time I would just take the basket from them and start a stack behind my register. Although, sometimes they are already putting the basket in random spots; so, I just let them.
For carts, some customers would not even put the cart up, they would just leave it there. In front of the register, for the next customer to run into it. Then there are the other customers who just push it where ever they want. So the next thing I know, there’s 5 carts going all which way where people are trying to dodge the carts. Then there are the customers who leave the carts outside. You could at least push it inside the doors. I just don’t understand how…
