Great place to work, good benefits and people.

I have to say I liked the people the best, but also that I learned a lot about how to organize things and give great customer service from my manager, Terry. She was awesome!!! Most patient woman ever. If I made a mistake and felt embarrassed she just looked me in the eyes and said it was ok and to keep going. So to everyone out there....it's OK, keep going!

I worked as a sales rep for Pepsi. Everyone knows what Pepsi is, but not everyone has it in their business. So my job was to go from business to business to sell into accounts. I had over six different counties I visited and once they bought I had to make sure the customer was satisfied with the company and all the products they purchased. It was a good job. I happen to like sales but I know it's not for everyone. You have to REALLY enjoy nurturing relationships and being with people, which I do.

Back in the day between chef jobs, I needed some work. I told my girlfriend at the time I was going to apply for Macy's because they were hiring. She laughed and told me that only women work in retail. Well needless to say we broke up (not because of that, haha) and she was wrong. Sometimes I was in the men's department and helping guys pick out suits and what not and others I jumped over to ladies shoes to help ring them out. No big deal. I liked it.

When I worked at Target I had this sweet older couple come through my line. They went to pay for a few groceries, but they were short $12. He began to count change on the belt and the wife debated what to put back. I was about to help them myself, when the guy behind them says don't work guys it's on me. He paid for their groceries. The older woman hugged him and asked for his address to repay him, but he said it wasn't a big deal. It sure was to them, and to me.

I’m a mailman for the USPS and due to a family emergency I had to take some time off work. On my first day back I ended up running into one of the people on my route and he asked politely what happened. I explained and then had to say goodbye to get back to my route. The very next day he met me out by my truck with a basket full of fruit and gift cards and everything else. I was so taken back by his kindness and thoughtfulness for me and my family.

Thank you if you’ve ever done anything kind for your carrier!!

I was working a shift the other day at CVS (I’m retired but do it to get out of the house) and a man walked into the store. He went to the feminine hygiene products and looked so confused! He was on his phone googling things looking at every product. I walked up and asked if he needed help with anything and he explained to me that he was a single father with a teenage daughter who sent him to get her tampons! He had no idea there were so many options and what to get her. I had him text her asking what she preferred and got it for him .. AND a bag of chocolate!!! I’m glad I was there to help because he would not have known what to do.

I’ve been working at Dollar General for about 11 months now working really hard. I started as a retail associate and moved up to key-holder and then assistant manager and just found out that I’m going to be moved to a nearby store and be the store manager! I told my mom and she was really excited for me to finally start my career! Just wanted to share that it is possible for people to get an entry level job here and then move up!!

Man, when I worked at Kroger I used to love eating their cupcakes on break. Best cupcakes I ever had. The frosting was just so damn good. I used to buy some for my baby sister, but I would eat one or two on break. For Christmas, my manager was awesome and bought me two boxes of them. I guess that's how I gained so much weight back then.

So I started last week at Sonic and it’s been pretty good so far. My supervisor has been nice and my coworkers are super helpful. I went to bring out a customer their drink orders and tripped right next to their door… half of their drinks went in the car and spilled ALL over her pants and I felt SOO bad.

I can’t believe I did this!! I apologized again and again and brought her paper towels to help clean and and even offered to pay for her dry cleaning. She wouldn’t let me and was really understanding. I was so stressed out about it but she made my day so much better even though I probably ruined hers..

Has anyone have a similar thing happenn to them?
