I've never cashiered before. I'm doing ok except I keep forgetting what to do if the customer pays with cash, credit card and gift card or with just cash and a credit card? Any other tips would also be appreciated Ty

Hello everyone, Happy 4th of July! As we've done in the past I think it's a good idea to keep our members informed on our moderation attempts for the past year or so.

I work at the Fuel Center. Last night a customer (young kid early 20s) made a very sexual remark to me. I am old enough to be his MOM! My closing manager had already left for the night. What do you do in your store when you need a manager and no one is available at night?

They keep telling me I have to do all these training modules. So far it's eleven. I've heard other employees talk about how they have to take training on stuff that has nothing to do with their job. My job takes me a full eight hours to do and no one else in the department is going to do it for me. If I don't do it...

Customer said "this is the first time in 10 years I have seen you smile"-said she "has known me" for 10 years. Came to the window snapping that we "always" ask her for ID for cigarettes.
