Reviews and Complaints

I was in line purchasing some items. I was waiting for it to be my turn. And, as soon as it was my turn to be ring up. The mgrs yells out for everyone to go to the station. This one is closed. She was closing the cashier. I was stunned that someone with do this. Seeing that I am waiting in line with others behind me. I said I am going to wait again in line. Othes, had already rushed to the other station. The mgr you could tell didn't care. She just said go to the other station. This one is closed. The ones that got there first. Was polite enough to let me be in the front. Since, they saw I was next at the station that closed. This is terrible customer service of the mgr operating the store. Closing down a station to check out. And, them making it obvious that I she didn't care if I waited in line again or not. Or was to just leave the store. Sunday 9-5-21. About 4 30 pm. She really needs to find a different job. Kirkman rd Wal Mart shopping center. Metrowest. Orlando Fl

I was in shopping last weekend and I over saw a woman the same woman that I had overseen following a woman out of the store yelling that she had stolen something telling eveyrone she was passing that this woman was stealing when I was in the line next to her and she was actually heading to her car to get some change this time to my horror this manager named Amy (short, foul mouthed heavyset woman with dark hair) was following some boys around the store maybe 12ish she had in tow with her what looked to be her girlfriend yelling at these boys, telling them they were trouble makers she called them liars, she called them thieves she continued to parade around behind them accusing them of things yelling at them they finally were embarrassed enough to head to the door she followed them to the door and called them idots and stupid and told them to get out of her store. if those boys would have been my children you would be down 1 manager she is so disrespectful, she is not a poster child for what a manager should look like and damn sure not how one should act, you never know what those boys go through at home maybe goin to the dollar tree was an escape for them and she verbally abused those boys I am just mortified and what I saw and what I heard that day in the store I have been out of town and had spaced it off until I saw her name on my desk when I got home I got her name from the employee that was checking my stuff out that day and I mentioned it to her, this manager heard me say how appalled I was and so she starts scoping my cart my purse making sure I didnt take anything and had some new employee watching me and the casier to see what we were talkin about so I changed the subject for fear of what might happen to the cashier who is always very friendly to me, she did muster the courage to say the behaviour is normal for this manager and acted very timid and afraid this is ludacrous this manager should be thrown out on her butt for what she did

I visit the Dollar Tree in Belpre OH, multiple times a week and have been around the employee who is the new store manager at this location. She is rude to customers and the employees. I stopped by today and found out that there were 2 employees leaving this store because of this new store manager. She regularly parks in the closest parking space to the front door. I have watched her take out items I assume she has purchased and put in her trunk and go back in to work (items that are in high demand). I was told by an employee there that the new store manager purchased a whole box of 2022 calendars (she did not order these they were stock for the store) and she sells them online for far more than she paid for them. She does this regularly with popular items. This store regularly has carts of stock items sitting around blocking the aisles. These carts are not stocked on the shelves for multiple days.

I have gotten hired to work at the minge and ashe dollar tree at bakersfield ca and the manager is always away, sick, on vacation, or MIA for neearly a month. She hired me herself on Aug 4 2021, but never emailed, called, or contacted me back. Her employes made excuses for her as all of them tell me different things. She is still "hiring" despite her giving me the position. She has my personal info as well and knows where I live. The manager's name, I was told by one of the workers, June, is Samantha Brown and she is in her late 20's to early 30's.

Samantha promised to call me back after I was hired. Never got an email nor call back after 3 weeks. I am hired but never got the call back. I am not even sure this is legal but what about wrongful hiring on her behalf? I just want my job and hopefully she corrects her mistake and gives me the job as I wasn't mean or rude or anything during the interview and she said that I was "the right one for the job and what she was looking for." I am still looking forward to working there despite this. I have applied for other jobs but I haven't gotten a reply back. I also don't have reliable transportation either to look for a job that is further away.

Every time I go in to potsdam the poor cashiers are running allover the place n tamee is either outside smoking or no where to be found the cashiers r usually toward the back fixin shelves just one instance robert was the cashier he yelled for tamee 3 times n she never came up... Her boyfriend or whatever u call him has told people they have had sex in the office... Is that y she is never around... Maybe someone should just pop in periodically on her

On 8/12/2021 I visited the Dollar Tree at the Commons in Martinsburg, WV. The odor of mustiness and mold was so strong, I could not stay. I am very concerned about the fact that employees are breathing this unhealthy air daily and those who shop there are affected also. I hope you will take this seriously in finding the cause and a solution.

Thank you

You have a employee at the Dollar Tree in Laramie Wy, her name is Kathy she is buying and selling drugs through the store. She is lying about having COVID she doesn't have COVID she just wants to hang out with her boyfriend. She is rude to the lady's but flirts something terrible with the men and she tells all the customers all her personal business she is causing the Laramie store to have a very bad name

Every time I go to our local Dollar Tree the shelves are either empty or there is hardly anything on the shelves, it's the most pathetic store in our state, you can see boxes upon boxes stacked in the back, but they never make it to the shelves, how your company can let this go is beyond me. Something needs to be done

Hello, I'd to like to make a complaint/reports of harrasment and sexual harassment.

So I'll first give basic information. This incidents were both, during my first time working at Dollar Tree, and when I was unemployed (I quit temporarily and returned). I didn't report it to the manager, because the offender had quit Dollar Tree, before moving jobs. This was during the time I wasn't working. And I didn't think anyone would believe me. This was at a Dollar Tree, in Indiana. I don't feel safe reporting which Dollar Tree store. And I'd like to remain anonymous. For, personal and safety concerns/reasons.

The series of incidents started, when, I quit my job. Then, my coworker who commited these offenses, Micheal Prater, asked me for my number. Now, he did nothing before this, he was just a friendly old guy. There was nothing suspicious, or seemingly dangerous about him. So, knowing this I did. Now after that is where it started getting dangerous and scary. At first the text's were friendly conversations between coworkers. Examples: "Hi! How are you doing?", "I'm fine", "Nice weather, huh?", etc.
And didn't even text that much, either. Just sometimes.

Then one day, Mike just changed. He texts me one morning. He sends:

"Hey, I had a dream about you last night".

He never ever text anything like this before, so it was admittedly, odd. I text back, asking for more clarity.

The reply reads:

"That we were loving and very happy😍"

Now, me knowing that the wording could mean multiple things, that, and I didn't want to jump to conclusions. Such as, that it was creepy or dangerous. So, I told him I didn't feel that way about him, and if we could just be friendly ex-coworkers that'd be great.

Then, Mike kept bugging me and getting too personal, like asking where I live, trying to get me to go out with him, some time. And he kept becoming obsessive and stalkerish. It got so bad, I told a trustworthy family member about it, and she addmiited that this is getting really bad, and I should remove contact with him. So, I did, because I didn't know what else, to do.

Then about a month later, I go into the dollar tree, to buy my grandmother some groceries, because she can't physically move well, to do the shopping herself. Mike was there. He was in the cash register line, waiting to be checked out, when I entered the store.
I went into one of the shopling aisles, to shop and avoid him. I'm busy trying to look for the items, when Mike sneaks up behind me. He was breathing heavily and panting, and spoke in a voice he never spoke in before. Then, I realize he wasn't just talking he was making sounds of arousal whilst talking. I was very scared, and wanted to leave the aisle. To get away from him.
He got in my personal space, and blocked to where I couldn't get past him. This was at then end of the aisle, to where I need to get out. And I couldn't turn around, because there were boxes blocking my way. I was trapped, with a shopping cart. In a a shopping aisle, with no one else around to help me. Trapped by a clearly horny ex-coworker, who was clearly dangerous at that moment.

Whilst blocking my space, he basically asked and demanded to know, why I was ignoring his texts. I lied, about blocking him from my phone, because he was dangerous right now. So I said my phone broke. He then, still did not budge. Then he's asks

"What's your new number. I missed you very much~".

He started to get into my personal space, whilst saying that. I told him I don't remember. Thankfully, he got caught off guard with my answer and started, to back up. Giving me just enough space, to push past him. I immeadiately took my chances and booked it to the next aisle. He kept trying to follow me, in the store. He kept bugging me about my phone number, and kept trying to get into my personal space. Thankfully, at one point he left me alone a bit to talk to the manager and other employees giving me enough time to recover from the scary incident. That, and I made up an excuse to give me his, number so I could text him first. I clearly wasn't going to, and used that as a way to get him away from me, get my grandma's groceries, and leave before something else happens. The first two steps worked. The last one, failed. Right when I was going to leave, the first few aisles, to get to the cash register. Mike shows up, again.

This incident that I'm about to mention, was so bad I had nightmares, and was traumatized.

He gets into my space and is making sexual sounds again. He was too, close. He was breathing in my face. I tried to lean away, from him. Then whilst he was mumbling about texting me and trying to talk to me, I caught him looking at my body. Specifically, my boobs and my legs.

I was in a bad situation, and alarms, kept going off in my head. Then, when he tried to give me the slip of paper, with his phone number. I caught sight of his other hand. Trying to grab, the right side of my waist. I backed up before he could grab me. But, then he grabbed my left hand, roughly. He left red marks, and a small bruise. I confirmed, after this incident.

He then starts to massage and grope my hand, and kept making sounds of arousal. I couldn't pull my hand away. I was stuck and being touched sexually, against my will. And what worse, he was getting off on doing this. I couldn't scream. I couldn't fight. I was stuck, getting molested in a dollar store. Why was this happening to me? Did I desrve this? Why was I so stupid? Why couldn't I see any warning signs? After he was done, he took that piece of paper, and put into the same hand. All he has to say is:

"It was nice to see you again".

I hurried to the cash cash register, and got my purchases checked out. I didn't say anything to my coworkers, boss, or managers about this. There's no way they'd believe me. All they know he was just a nice old guy. I believed that, too. If someone else warned me about him, before this happened. I might not even had beleived them, too. I was such a fool. Maybe I deserved this. They say good people die young. Maybe, it's because we give chances, too easily.

I told my grandmother in the car, what happened (while she was driving home). She was disturbed, herself and saw how distraught, I was. We also, told, another family member. This was a few days, after this day.

After that I stopped coming tp Dollar Tree, for about a few months. Eventually, I'd only go because my grandmother had stuff she 'had to have', from the Dollar Tree. And I'd only shop for her, if Mike wasn't there. Sadly, one time he was, and we didn't know it. So, I had a run in with him. He tried to approach me again. Making sounds of arousal. But I snapped him, shouting

"What, Mike?!"

Between being on my period, the pain and grief he had been causing me, and the fact he legally molested me; I was not up for anymore of his "Shiet".

He left me alone, the rest of the time, I was shopping.

Eventually, about another month goes by, and I find out from one of my family members, who I shared these incidents with, that Mike had started working at another brand of dollar store. That's I decided to reapply, after re-confirming Mike left his job from the Dollar Tree.

However, Mike, found out I am working at Dollar Tree, again. He is starting his behaviour, again. I'm honestl, am terrified. Especially, since he's planning on working at the Dollar Tree, again. Hence, why I'm hoping this report, will help prevent him from doing these thing to any person, again.
Please, don't let him go near me. He is dangerous!

-Sincerely, anon.

I have been followed in the store. I have been accused of being homeless and stealing. I have had my cash checked, under 20 dollars. Over charged a buck or two and was told it was not a big deal. Today, the cash spoke to everyone walking in expect me. I bought glass vases and he did not wrap them up at all. When I spoke to the manager on duty she had smirk on her face and did not care. I brought in my own bag, I get the Covid policy the cashiers are not consistence.

My daughter is Autistic and works at the Norfolk Parkway location in Melbourne, FL. The manager keeps putting her on the schedule then calling her and telling her hours are being cut and not to come in. When she talks to coworkers they say that the manager is hiring more people due to being busy. How does that make sense? I hope it is not due to my daughters disability. I feel that they are either taking advantage of my daughter or just playing games. It isn't right either way.
