Family Dollar - Store employee

So me and my friend went to family dollar store number 01485 in oshkosh wisconsin on march 29th at around 6:30 p.M. As we go everyday and spend 50.00 or more each time when we went to check out an employee asked my friend where the gems were that she had in her hand and she had put them down because she changed her mind my friend asked if she'd like to have her empty her purse out and check her and the employee stated no then she continued to say that we looked suspicious because we were walking up and down the aisle so is that what a new policy that you have to run up and down family dollar aisles now? And then proceeded to tell us that we weren't allowed back in the store very unprofessional very rude very biased. Very profiling I plan on getting an attorney I find a civil suit against family dollar or something isn't done about this the lady first of all her hygiene needs to be addressed she had holes under her armpits on her shirt very unprofessional looking. So since when did family dollar change their policy on walking up and down aisles i'd like to know i'm sure my attorney would like to know as well I think she needs to be fired very rude and it's not the first time i've read the complaints on that store millions of them I think you guys better get on the ball and do something about these employees that shouldn't even have jobs until they intend to their hygiene and their manners

Desired outcome: She needs to be fired and we like an apology written from her or the store manager maybe restitution if I take this to court

Family Dollar - I was treated unfairly, stereotyping, racism, profiling a paying customer!

On april 13, 2019 at 11:30 am I decide to stop into family dollar located on 2017 jackson street, oshkosh, wisconsin. I typically do not stop into. Since it was close by I decided to stop for time sake. I entered the store in my black north face jacket, jeans and my traveling small purse backpack, since I had just came back from south carolina the night before. I went towards the house-wear section and detergent area bc obviously I needed detergent and I saw some cute decor stuff. After I checked the detergent and was looking around house wears, I checked my phone and texted my mom back. Right after that moment a larger white female employee, around her mid 30's, came up to me with an angry look on her face asking me, very unfriendly, if I needed help. I was a little confused because i've literally been in the store for only 5 minutes, haven't even had a chance to get the things I needed. (just wanted to add that within those 5 minutes of being there, no one was around me, as this store is not a store that typically has a lot of ppl in there). I answered the female employee politely, "no, thank. I'm just looking" and even smiled. As I was walking towards the middle end isle literally within a minute later the same large white female employee now tells me that she needs to look in my bag. Shocked and confused I told to her to go ahead, that I don't have anything to hide.

I would however like to ask to that female employee and to the family dollar corporation, after you/your employee searched my bag not once but twice, took out my michael kors wallet, quay sunglasses, $160, my small pandora gift bag, searched every pocket and receipt and even searched my jacket, convinced I was a thief and treated me like I was a criminal. After the stereotyping, racism, profiling, judging, assuming, accusing... After all of that, when she couldn't find what "she thought" I stole...
I didn't even get a simple apology, sorry for searching your bag, sorry for stereotyping and profiling you, sorry for treating you like a criminal! She gave me her sad excuse that someone had heard packages being open so she had to check "only my bag" (mind you, I was in there only for 5 minutes with no one around me) and she had no proof of me taking anything! I was a criminal already just by walking into the store. So I want to know, why did she not check the other peoples bag also and only just this asian girls bag?! Was it because I wasn't white?
"family dollar corporation" is this how you train your employees? To stereotype and profile people, show racism, assume they are criminals and not even see the wrong they did? I'm not sorry to say... You have lost a paying customer.
