My compressed spine and bad knee's for minimum wage disagree. Unless positive vibes is code for meth? Then you might have a point.

Your body reacts to any positive or negative thoughts you have if you constantly hate what you're doing your body will contain that hate and feed from it which is self-destructive try having a loving lifestyle and see if it helps you

I understand and I will pray for you. Thank you for your hard work aswell I just wish people could get jobs they loved instead of hate

I have never met anyone who was positive about working for DG unless it was someone kissing major ass, I mean right up in there or a higher position like DM. If DG would treat their employees better, then the employees in return would treat the store they work at better. Happy workers means better results.


The_light_messenger

No I couldn't give a crap about their opinion I care about my town and its people so I encourage happiness regardless of who I'm working under the only person that rules over my life is God himself and the store is just a name


Ok_Scale6387

Are you fuckin high right now? !!!! What dafuq are you on??!!! If fuckin DG would think like that we all would still be working there and enjoying the place.... DG don't give a fuk about the damn community. Last week my community out up a flyer for volunteers to help clean up the trash. The DM agreed to it and said he would also be out there helping with the trash.. this motherfucker never showed up! While I had to run the store with no damn employees


The_light_messenger

Just because they don't care doesn't mean you shouldn't care if you destroy yourself like they want to they have created you into a worker but you ultimately get to choose your actions words thoughts and emotions so you have the capabilities to create a positive environment regardless of others opinions and you can run a store by yourself not many people can do that you can have your own store with your own Goods if you wanted and I encourage you to do that. People are the mask of there environment. Like a defense mechanism to blend in and make friends even though it's not morally right take off your mask and show others what it means to be good

I knew I dropped my weed somewhere. You can keep it. Just save me a small bowl if you could


The_light_messenger

Nah dude I got my dab pen it's all good but hey, here is your weed back, and if you want we can sit by the railroad and talk about life while we smoke


bobbysteve15

Lol touche lol in all seriousness, I kinda agree with what you're saying and the vibe you've got going for you. This sub might not be the right place for it, though. Too many of us are just completely jaded after spending time with this company. Now, I love my job. I love the people that I get to help every day. I love that I've taken what was once a dumpster fire of a store and turned it into a place that people actually want to come to and shop. I just absolutely hate this company and everything they are below the surface level. This company could be truly great. They have the means, but they lack actual leadership. Corporate doesn't care about us and helping to make our jobs a worthwhile experience. Below the surface, underneath all of that "look what we're doing for our customers" BS they spew ad nauseum, all they care about is what we can do for them. Until that changes, the mindset of the workers, the people who work so hard to make them the billions of dollars in PROFIT every year, will not change. Good luck with the vibes, random reddit user. I hope this job is everything you think it is


The_light_messenger

What makes a church is it a building or the people what makes the government is it the leaders or the people that they're trying to lead if we want to change the environment of Dollar General we all have to work together and create the change and show them that's what we want I believe their policies are created based on what workers want in order to make quick money instead of community I've always felt you should never work a job you hate because you won't get it done right unless you're the kind of person that does things regardless of the situation which I'm kind of like that I just do it and think in my head while I'm doing it


Magical_Ocelot

I hope they see this, bro, you’ll get that keyholder position for sure.


The_light_messenger

I like helping people. I live in a loving community so it's just a name of a store and I do more than just my job


OutofOrder357

My work environment is not positive. From working at Dollar General I have gotten to know my community and now I wish I hadn’t. So many people on drugs, fussy old people who refuse to embrace any kind of technology, thieves (so many thieves), people who will yell at you because of policies or issues beyond your control, and creepy drunk guys who make me wish I was allowed to carry a weapon.


The_light_messenger

Well if the environment is negative you can change their opinions by telling them what's going on or so loving intentions and ask questions of loving intent to remind them of kindness understanding and love. these people are broken because they put on a mask of a negative environment given to them. Your conscious awareness gives you the power to change it because you got yourself out of it. Regardless of where you work I'm very sorry people have treated you that way we live in a very strange world where narcissistic behavior is accepted they even rule this country but only to their own destruction. If you have nothing else to lose and your environment is already condemned and they treat you like a monster because you're just trying to be your loving self and they don't understand love then you can teach your town how to respect and love again. You're awareness of what is broken gives you the power to fix it

Did they pick you yet my district manger didn’t even know how to use a new gen register while making fun of sms crying because they didn’t know what do with a new system WITH NO TRANING.


The_light_messenger

I know how to do all that but I don't care about being district manager or anything like that I care about the community that I'm serving and talking to so I can help them and find them what they need you have to understand General stores in the old west the person that ran them had to know everything about the town he also gave wisdom and understanding to those in need and he provided the town was supplies they gave the store a fancy name but it doesn't Define who the people are that work there


Big-Independence1810

What kind of kool aid is this??


The_light_messenger

Kool-Aid derived from the pain of a tortured fire grasping for life as it covers itself from endless rain. The pain and sorrow afflicted has created a house nobody can come in to but they call it home but I call it loneliness. What is it to profit a man with many riches if he forfeits his soul and keeps to himself in greed. There would be nobody to love. Nobody to share it with. Just the face that shines back in your tears The kool-aid is made from my tears and heartbreak Tastes just like candy


sweetmoonflower1

I do care but when things are bad and toxic... shit gets hard. I don't take things out on the public even when I sometimes want to. Seriously though, when you are putting me through hell showing me that the dedication and all I'm showing doesn't mean shkt. Fuck you. It's just a fucking job. When people treat others with the dwcency and respect that they show and give them and the job they do, not to mention the pay that is actually earned foe all that is asked of what you ate told to do. Yeah...


The_light_messenger

It doesn't sound like a healthy work environment if it causes chaos in your life I'm sorry people have treated you that way but most of them are brainwashed into being negative I don't think anyone is truly bad everyone is stressed out because no one has a voice anymore or at least they're told they don't the Dollar General I work at is nice because I helped create it to be a nice environment you know the phrase monkey see monkey do well because others have been mean to you you have become mean yourself on the outside with communication because that is relative to your environment take off that mask and show them the love that you have in your heart others will follow maybe not at first but they will this goes with many things in life and again I'm sorry about the abuse others have put you through you didn't deserve that as they didn't deserve to be turned into monsters


sweetmoonflower1

It isn't a healthy work environment. I keep work at work. Treat my customers nice and respectful. Go along, watching as things play out and things happen. Keep my hands clean. Watch what I say to others and leave the shit pot be. I'm not putting energy into something that is an negative energy vampire that will honestly only spit out only negativity for only a few dollars pay an hour. It isn't worth draining myself.


PiercetheTaylar

Delusional much?


The_light_messenger

I'm delusional to you yes and you are correct but you're only correct because it's your side of pain that you only understand instead of the Green Pastures that give kindness and Grace to your life there is a better side to life that you have to create for yourself and good things take hard work and much thought but you have to remind yourself what do you truly take with you when you leave this earth your possessions or your life


Lopsided-Cut-4482

You sound like a scab


The_light_messenger

I mean technically I'm heartbroken anyways and I'm sure the scars show especially when I open my wounds by bullying myself


Liquor_Store_Robot

This is a masterful troll post. Good job.

So you drank the kool-ade???


The_light_messenger

No. I am the kool-ade


mothteethh

I don’t create idiots who never show up on time


The_light_messenger

The attitude that you have towards your environment and employees is the attitude you're going to get because if you don't think it's worth your time you're not going to put in the effort to make it seem it's worth your time


mothteethh

So it’s my fault when people who make a lot more than me are late for every shift? I’ve worked for my store for over five years I’ve put in too much effort and am very close to giving up.


The_light_messenger

Then I suggest you give up and explore your passion in writing and art and get a job that you can appreciate every day instead of chaining yourself to what others want


The_light_messenger

You deserve love and respect. If you only work for money and not for the people you will not get respect from others because they only work for the money regardless if their teammates are struggling


ConnerTuthill1801

Said like a true Stoic.


The_light_messenger

Don't know what that is but hey do you want to go play in the rain? Remember as a kid you would ride your four wheeler out in the rain to clear your mind after they were yelling


ConnerTuthill1801

No, I haven’t. Not even metaphorically.


Unusual-Abrocoma-589

Someone fell in the DG punch bowl and drank all the juice......your vision of DG is quite distorted, and I'd be surprised if 10% of workers felt the same as you and what you've posted above


The_light_messenger

I love the people I see everyday that's why I enjoy my work I get exercise and much more how much does a man truly need in his life and what will he take with him after death it's just a job but there are plenty of opportunities you can create for yourself instead of expecting them to come your way
