Dollar General

I think this Dollar General staffed by some pretty great folks. I find the neighbors here that frequent the store to be surprisingly critical considering no other company is willing to invest in the household basic/supermarket business model within city limits. I’ve only experienced friendly service and I’ve never been disappointed when I paid a quick visit for something I needed.

They have a little bit of everything. If you need some odd object, chances are, you can get it here.

Ok, so I work at a Dollar General at this location. I started in 2017 as a sales associate (cashier) in Lake George, I am currently the assistant manager of this store. I understand that the aisles having things in them is a pain and the lack of a product is irritating. What everyone doesn't understand is which ever day we get our trucks on let's say Tuesday like at my store we only stock our u-boats and totes that 1st day and we only have a day 1/2 to have our trucks done. My store it's by 11:00am Thursday so no matter what time our truck comes on Tuesday's and no matter how big our trucks are (my location we get close to 2,000 piece trucks every week) that's the allotted time we are given. It doesn't always happen that way but we try. We also don't do our ordering for the stores that's all done based on sales and the distribution center. Also we are only allowed to schedule so many hours every week, we have a budget to follow. My store is a $2,000,000 a year store so we most likely get a little more hours than say a smaller store. We try our hardest to please everyone. I understand it's very frustrating to stand in line and there's only 1 person on register and the other person is outside and you think geez they're just out there smoking but what you don't understand is we HAVE TO BY LAW GIVE THEM LUNCH BREAKS. And that person may have came in at 6am. I work 10 hour days at my store so I have to take an hour lunch. If you work over 5 hours you have to per company policy take a 30 min lunch. Anything over 7.5 hours is an hour lunch. That lunch is supposed to be uninterrupted. For managers or managers on duty that doesn't always happen since you have to have keys to do a return or to void something. So before you get rude or upset with an employee think about the things I've mentioned. Just because we work in customer service doesn't make us any less human, we have feelings too. We all try to make your shopping experience great at every location. We have company policies we have to follow too. And remember if it wasn't for those who work in customer service these stores wouldn't be possible to exist.

Exactly what you would expect. The store is well stocked. The staff are quick. Theres even beer!
