I have worked for this company for 5+years, I took the positon of 2nd assistant manager over a year ago, guaranteed workng every other saturdays doing b0oks, untill 10am, with sundays off. And working every other mondays, doing the books. Monday books are like tuesday b0oks thru saturdays. They are hell, excuse my language. Now, this corporation is trying to tell me I have to work everyother sunday. Then they tell me they can not force me to, but my manager, louise courtney, tells me that if do not work sundays I have to do mondays books every monday, what the hell? To me this sounds like briabry.. I was guarnteed something and now they are going back on their word. What if we did this as an emloyee, we would be fired!
Not only that, today I found out that if you call in on a weekend, friday-sunday, even if you have a doctors excuse or the flu, or hn1n, you are fired! What compassion you have for your employees.
To be honest, I worked 9 hours today without eating, or even a break. I had to begg to go the bathroom, this corportion would make more money if they treated their employees like human beings, not like animanls.
In the store I work at we are not allowed any type of break, bathroom, eating, etc. For 4- hours, get a grip, we are not animals. When we do get that break, our manager, louise courtney, gets mad if we are gone more than 1-minute. And that is no lie!.. I have been here for over five (5) years I shoud know.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
I just recently got fired from my job at Casey's in Nebraska as a asst. mgr. My manager fired me because i would not go along with unfair treatment to employees including myself. As a asst. mgr i was scheduled 35- 37 hours a week with 2 days off in that week. On my days off i would get called into work to cover someone, go down and fix something or just plain stupid stuff. You would think that if i was scheduled 35- 37 hrs and i would work at least a 6 hour shift that would put me at 40 hrs or more and i would have overtime. Not hardly... In a six month span of me doing this, going in on my days off..i got paid for overtime twice... Then the overtime would even be short... What the hell!
Not only that But my mgr. would call her employee's ###'s if they did something wrong that she did not like. I told her that i have ADD after that she started to call me stupid and ### if i made a mistake. She only had two employees that she really liked and that who she favored. They could do no wrong.. They could go outside for a smoke a hundred times in a shift, they did not have to stock cooler and when they did they would only stock water that was right at the front of the cooler. They always got to do truck and as an asst. mgr i never learned truck. I asked i got put on truck once and then never again. The whole time they do truck the manager and her two favorites just stand around and talking to each other even if there are a line of customers at the counter and only one cashier they will not come and help. The manager breaks the rule of management confidentiality by telling her two favorites everything about the other employees. Now i have no job because I stood up for myself and the other employees . This is not the way to be a manager and run a business. Now i'm waiting on my last check hoping that i get paid for all my hours.
The manager I worked for was like that.
I have worked for Casey's for almost seven years in the Paullina, Iowa store, now being the manager, and nothing like these situations have never happened in my store. I think that you guys are gong overboard on these comments. Number one, Casey's has to pay you minimum wage. I have ten employees working under me and every single one has always gotten their raise. From my standpoint, number one, assistant managers are to work every other weekend Saturday and Sunday...read the handbook. The books are not that hard...they are the same every day of the week so I don't know why you think they are different on Sundays...As for the gas drive offs...pretty sure you are supposed to be writing down a description of the car and the employee...again read the handbook...Casey's allows breaks as long as all your work is done and the customer's needs are met. As for this crap you guys are putting on this site...its ridiculous...grow up...if you don't want to do what you are supposed to be doing...then quit...the company doesn't need people like you working for them anyways. Like I said, I have worked for Casey's almost seven years and none of this stuff has ever happened in my store.
That's [censor] maybe if you go from a great manager to one that does absolutely nothing youd change ur mind ..my manager get 50000 a year an 4 what he's worked for Caseys for 9 [censor]ing months you deal with that then say grow up..it sucks balls
i have to agree with hunter, i've been working for casey's for almost five years now and have only received maybe three of my raises (90 day raise, the $.25 raise that came with uping starting wage, which they up $.50 but only give us $.25, and maybe MAYBE my 1 year raise) my first manager said that it was because our (mine and his) comments to the company weren't long enough even though i filled all THREE lines given to me PLUS one that i added my self. well a year ago he was fired/quite/let-go-early and so we were left with our assistant mngr as the manager, all the sudden things started running better all-around and ppl were happy. then we received our current mngr, TONI RICHARDSON. at first things seemed to be okay, but then she went and started pissing (pardon my language) people off. it started off with her telling one person one thing then a second person a completely different thing along with denying everything she said to the first (even if we had somebody else who knew what she said) then it was promising to help people out with their work problems and then denying those promises, and finally it came to the scheduling (which she refused to do for the longest time because "i don't know what hours everyone works" (not that hard to find out just look at the past schedules and/or ASK US.) so for me it was promise me a set schedule...LIE, told people that when she called me she told me to come in 3 hours earlier then what i was scheduled so i could help with truck...LIE (she called to ask if i knew i was scheduled to come in at 5pm-8pm THAT'S IT), then i told and showed her how much i was making ($8.25 STILL AM MAKING THAT MUCH) her jaw just about hit the floor and she started apologizing for that and said that she would get those sent through IMMEDIATELY(a whole year later...nothing) then came the promise to make a meeting with me to come in and do my evaluations, even included her writing a note to her self to remind her to call me, that was over a month ago during the week of Iowa State Fare because the note said any day but Tuesday because i was gonna be out of town that day...the note is still hanging in the office taped right next to the computer screen for all to see...still...nothing! now she's cut my hours back dramatically without telling me why, but from the general consensus that i was given, from other employee's she's told, is because i was sitting in "HER OFFICE" doing nothing my entire shift accept txting, ok yes i admit it i was sitting down everynow-andthen for a break because,
A.) i have a bad back so when i stand for to long i start to loose felling in my legs and feet
B.) like hunter breaks are a rare thing for register ppl unless there is a second register person or your TONY(WHO IS CONSTANTLY SITTING IN THE OFFICE DOING NOTHING WHILE WE RUN HER REGISTER OR WHILE SHE IS ONE HER CELL PHONE)
and C.) i had a customer coming in every 20 minutes and i had already face shelfs wiped counters and PUT UP THE NEW MONTHS SIGN'S (WHICH NOBODY ASKED ME TO DO THAT LAST ONE I W THOUGHT I"D BE NICE AND DO IT)
so i find out that another employee told our mngr to watch the tapes(which she clames that she doesn't know how to work) because i wasn't doing any thing, ok this same employee works with a person who listens to there mp3 during there shift (which i was given a verbal warning not to do) and yet she doesn't say anything about that person, pretty frick-in ethical don't you think?! so now she was given both of my normal shifts for one week leaving me hourless for a second week in one month (not sure of the reason for the first week) leaving me unable to pay my car payment and insurance payments. but as i was first told after i first started that if there was ever a problem with me the order went as followed
1. verbal warning
2. second verbal warning hinting at a write-up
3.write up with warning that a continue of what-ever would result in hour loss
4. loss of hours
5. if you're still being an idiot then your fired/ put on temporary suspension without pay
ok so she has skipped steps 1-3 and has somewhat combined steps 4 and 5
didn't casey's kinda get sued over something like this before...?
along with being told that if we have more the two drive off''s in one month we are to be written up for it, ok i've seen at least AT LEAST three drive off tickets for TONY and yet...no write-up, which brings me to ask, why are the employees punished for the actions of somebody that we have no control over, so its naturally our fault if the person decides they don't want to pay for their gas?! they tell us to use the intercom to tell the ppl that we are watching them get gas and that they are to pay inside after getting, but think about it...our store has 8 pumps total are we supposed to remember what kind of car was at each along with what the person looked like. not sure about you but i don't have a photographic memory nor is my head the national encyclopedia for automobile makes and models i'm sorry. if your that worried about the gas then install cameras at the pumps so you can see the driver and their plates, instead the store i work at installed 8(count'em 8) camera's inside because they're more worried about catching the kid stealing the candy bar instead of the guys stealing the gas. doesn't quite make sense
The fact is employees don't run the corporations. And things change over time. In a lot of places one person is now doing the job of 3 people and you have the choice of keeping the job and doing, or quitting. There's lots of people waiting in line for work.
Not much you can do - this isn't specific to the company you work for, it's happening everywhere. Cutbacks in staff to save money, putting more work onto remaining staff. This is nothing new, it's being going on for years and years.
At least you have a job.
You know what...OF COURSE WE ARE GRATEFUL FOR A JOB BUT THAT DOESNT MEAN CASEYS GENERAL STORES CAN make up their own laws to make their bottom look better for shareholders! This is about my 6th screw up they made with me and I have been with Co 5 years.
They can't just say something and then and then change it and affect our payroll and our livelihood because they're trying to make the bottom line look better
I just got fired because on feburary 8th, I got called in early for my overnight shift. Meaning I had no time to sleep before my shift. And I had worked the previous night. So that's already about 28 hours of no sleep. Well about 3 hours into my shift, I needed to sit or nap or something because I was deliriously tired. I set an alarm for 10 minutes. And took a power nap. And I was good to go for the rest of the night. Got all my stuff done and was even done early. Then someone snitched on me, and they looked at the cameras and bam fired. If they would look closer at the cameras they would see countless employees stealing from caseys.. ugh.. glad I'm out of the toxic environment I was in.
