They dont' treat their employees well here.
You're an idiot for telling people to steal from the stores. Depending on what management is working, these people mainly do only what they are told. If they are told they can't give it to you then they wont. Not everyone who works there is a ###. They are people with a ### job just trying to get through the miserable day where the policies make people like you mad who in turn try to make the worker's day miserable right back. It's not the employee's fault if they were told to deny it. They're just obeying the people who can fire them and make them go broke.
Did you know that people have invented machines that can scan your cards when they pass you on the street? Will you just carry cash everywhere you go?
You probably looked suspicious somehow, like a recent theft that occured with someone of a similar profile like yours. In alot of stores young people heading towards certain aisles after a certain time at night are carefully watched due to repeated thefts of particular items.
Oh please. It doesn't matter if you're black or white. You get a job through "connections" and who you know. If an "African American" was really buddy buddy with your manager and needed a job, he'd probably get hired in a snap. I got my job only because I was friends with two of the employees who had been there for years, not because I'm white. Openings don't have to be "announced to the public" first. They are known to the other employees first and friends of workers or transfers get those positions first. Majority white businesses are not "racist". It's just like the lunch tables in high school. You've got the tables where white people go, the tables where black people go, and the tables where people of the two races mix together.
I love these comments. I was going to do my own ranting but other people got there before me. Thank you.
Raptar? What is Raptar? Oh...that thing in the backroom that just takes up space?
It's not a scam just because there was technical error.
Okay, seriously. You want to know why the people at Rite Aid are miserable and miserable to you? They are underpaid. They are underappreciated. They get no thanks for anything they do. They have to do more with fewer people, almost scrapping the bottom of the barrel. The vast majority of customers are scammers trying to get everything for nothing who argue about things they don't understand themselves. Some of them even hate waking up in the morning knowing they have to go to work that day. It's ignorant saying "I hope they go out of business". The company might suck, making their employees so miserable they can barely stand to be there themselves, but they are just people trying to pay their bills and make it through the day. Just me...if the workers could afford to leave...almost all of them would.
I'm an employee at Rite Aid. I've worked there for 3.5 years. I started at 7.00 an hour. I'm currently 7.65. Mind you after the minimum wage increase. I work my fingers to the bone but every day that passes I slowly do less and less because nothing is thanked for. Nothing is praised. Nothing matters to anyone in these stores. I happened to see what a brand new employee, with less education and less experience than me, got hired for a year ago. 7.75 an hour. He's going to get an increase soon, which boils my blood. Whenever he works our customer service score goes down. He sits on the counter when customers are coming in. He constantly plays and when he and one manager work together NO work gets done but the bare minimum, leaving it all for me the next day. Another worker who makes moer than me only stands behind the register and does nothing at all. She just stands there and gets paid for it while I'm running all over the store doing the best I can, doing as much work as I can get done, and kicking myself when I can't because I know management will complain about it to me later. Similar things happen in another store with my best friend. This company doesn't care one lick.
That's true of almost any store. I was two years into my work there before I even knew the cards COULD expire.
I'm sorry but this is ignorant. Just because a product is sold at a store doesn't mean everyone is going to know every detail of it. If maybe we had a section dedicated to the cards and someone trained to know every detail then yes...We sell the stuff. We dont' make it. We don't use it. We don't taste or smell it. We're just cashiers checking you out for what you buy. They probably told you that information because it's what they were told it does.
