A Dollar General store in Wisconsin was forced to briefly shut down after its entire workforce quit, citing seven-day workweeks and a “lack of appreciation.”
Dollar General store briefly shuts down after entire staff quits over seven-day work weeks: ‘Lack of appreciation’
At the end of their shift on Friday, they finally left — and marked the occasion with a handwritten sign on the door that read, “We quit! Thank you to our amazing customers. We love you and will miss you!” Tribolet said that while there were many issues with the store, the “last straw” was seeing Dollar General throw an exorbitant amount of items in the trash despite touting that it donates items to the local community.
Feeding America’s corporate donation guidelines explicitly state that “food approaching expiration” is welcome. “If you’ve ever been at the bottom and never had anything, you know what it feels like to see items get thrown away. That could have gone to somebody that needed them.” As the manager, she could only allot her staff so many paid hours per week. Thus, if there was more work to be done but there wasn’t enough money to schedule other staffers to do it, Tribolet was the one to fill that gap.
