I am employed by Dollar Tree. My question is this. After I clock out from my shift, do I have to leave the store? I ask because after my shift was over, I went to the break room to finish my lunch and check on something I listed on the internet on my phone. One of the cashier came in and said I was not allowed in the store after I clocked out because I was loitering. I don't think this is true. As long as I am not working, , I should be able to shop or in this case, finish eating my lunch. Could you please let me know if this information is accurate or if she's just trying to bully me.
Every business has a different policy on this. A quick call to Human Resources should resolve this question.
