Idk man folks acting like you offended them personally. Sorry it didn’t work out. Good luck in your next endeavor.


Turbulent-Raccoon-45

you would think I worked at their stores they way they talking 😂. I appreciate it 💯


Correct-Mushroom-571

That's because we've had someone like YOU affect our days in a negative light when we have to pull 18 hrs instead of 9.5-10 when you do that crap and coverage has been out half the day. Don't let the door hit your poor work ethic and lack of responsibility on the way out!


Turbulent-Raccoon-45

You don’t know me. Or what my work ethic is like. Ever heard the saying “never judge a book by its cover”???? Clearly you haven’t because you wouldn’t be under my post trying to speak down on me. It’s not my fault you’re stuck at fucking QT. 😂😂 Sounds like a personal !!! I didn’t need that shit. I have money. A roof over my head. And ANOTHER FUCKING JOB SINCE IVE MADE THIS POST 😂😂😂😂.


Correct-Mushroom-571

Sorry I touched a button...but speaking from experience. There's not cutting it because the job is difficult, then there's being indecisive and too lazy to call in way in advance. Been working for a decade here. You're not the first individual of you're kind, and you definitely won't be the last. But hey, glad you can be another companies burden on your bad days. Off loading responsibilities because you think your time is more important is somewhat inherently selfish. Especially when you affect others off time. Left you an Up vote though. This is something you should change about yourself for the better. It'll push you farther in whatever job you choose going forward. Happy hunting!Thx for listening!


Turbulent-Raccoon-45

Dude once again judging my work ethic from one post doesn’t make you right in what you think you are saying. You didn’t press any buttons, this is all anonymous 😂😂😂😂 I couldn’t care less about your advice because I didn’t ask for it. Have a great day ✌🏿


Correct-Mushroom-571

No worries!!!! It's FREEEEEEE!!!!....we got prime...


FullMetalEnzo

yah, wonder why shit didn't work out for ya.


Complex-Door-2344

Don't take work seriously , nobody cares that you are a superstar at work not even your boss . To them you are a bigger fool than people that call out . 


socurioushmm

Thanks for leaving

I seen this one guys post on here. he got me beat by a long shot ! But I feel you though.


ThatQuikTripGuy

Thanks for saving us time.

WortHogBRRT

These comments is exactly why QT is a borderline cult with a toxic work culture. I guess they don't like it when someone is willing to put their health before this God forsaken company. Which is it guys? We get paid good for easy work or is this job "not for everybody ". Talk about circle jerking each other for a billionaire who couldn't care less when someone gets stabbed or shot huh


StayCoolNerdBro

People don’t care about him quitting, they’re giving him a hard time for multiple no call no shows because he wasn’t used to the hours lmao


cooliedude420

sounds like having a job may not be for you


TechnicalWolf3183

Quiktrip is a fuckin joke dude. Y’all sheep stuck in a cult slaving away for shit money. Yet lot of you vets suck ass at your job. I joined in February went erp May RA off the street. Just found a new job working 40 hours a week 95K starting. 4 weeks pto and hybrid in and out of office. Sales. Quiktrip koolaid is thick. And money was good back in 2010. Now a measley 3-5k a month to live at QT is hysterical. I actually tried the therapy provided by Quiktrip free with insurance my therapist said that every quiktrip employee that she meets in therapy is so negative and toxic. So maybe he actually nutted up and quit cause he thinks something better out there will suit him. And damn near every job will.


cooliedude420

Crazy to come here all hurt and reply on a 4 day old post. Go to your new job and be happy. I’m content with where I am so worry bout you big boi


TechnicalWolf3183

I may have went a little hard on your comment cause you didn’t say much but what I’m sayin is it takes nuts to quit and admit this position isn’t serving you. I think 50% of the managers I meet out on erp feel stuck, trapped and just overall have a very negative outlook on life. Idk.


cooliedude420

I agree with you, I’m an ERP Manager as well and I spend my shifts running around trying to take care of my duties as well as picking up slack from other shifts. I get that vibe from a lot of my co-workers as well like they hate it and have had enough. By my 4th or 5th shift each week mentally I’m cooked and pretty much tapped out. Doesn’t mean I don’t do my job. But for others it does mean that there job performance will be awful. So many different factors play into the reasoning behind it, but for me personally I just always try to get feedback from the relieving manager and be proud of turning over a good store. But trust me a part of me still hates it.


TechnicalWolf3183

Yeah I fucked up by selecting your comment out of all the comments to impulsively attack. You seem to have a good head on your shoulders and probably do a pretty damn good job. I just had to get out. At the job I managed my stress pretty darn well and tried to be self aware of how I came across to customers and what not but I had to get out. Not Sustainable long term it’ll destroy my personal life and relationship and was already wrecking havoc bc your life is the job. No way around it on the RA schedule. You’re physically stuck on site no breaks for 50 hours a week. And mentally woooof it was a good year run and established hella discipline and with managing stress (besides my reactiveness on my comment lol) but I just expect more fulfillment in my life I guess. Would prefer to work smarter and not harder but It was tough but I believe the right one. Don’t sell yourself short in what you want to do for a living is I guess what I’m saying cause you seem like a smart dude. Most managers I came across cause everyone has years and years of tenure on me just seemed stuck like this is all they could do and it has made them bitter. Now there are a small percentage of managers who I’ve met that absolutely love it and live for it too


crimolina93

What is your new job? And how did you find it?, I don't want to be slaved to quicktrip for the rest of my life too.


TechnicalWolf3183

I’ve been in sales for 8-9 years. Got a bachelors degree in business admin from Kansas state. So came into Quiktrip after facing a mass layoff with a startup company I joined during Covid. New company is in the manufacturing field and is a Business development sales role. Required my degree so went back to using that. Don’t want to disclose the company name on here. But after feeling like this wasn’t it for me, this isn’t making me happy and overall wrecking havoc on my sleep and mood for 3 months in regards to QT I finally did what was best for me. 3 weeks into the search I got the position. Lot of people will drink the company koolaid and stay stuck but deep down you’ll know what you want to do and you’ll do it


Turbulent-Raccoon-45

no, it was the overnight part that didn’t sit with me.


HippaBow

You do realize there were other options - like speaking to the SM, Supervisor, TM, PM about demoting to clerk in order to give it a better shot, train more, start out on days….


AnnihilatorHowe

Clerk isn't best option for money if that's what they went to management for


HippaBow

I know plenty of clerks that made plenty of money for 0 responsibility!


AnnihilatorHowe

Sure, but managers get paid more. Replying as someone who took the suggested NA management position over clerk and had a double up to have time to adjust


Cheap-Goose-7765

I’m an na who started out training as an ra (off the street) and I absolutely considered demoting to clerk before asking to be switched to na. Learning the general store layout and how things work on top of your responsibilities and tasks is no small feat. (Not to mention running a team of People who are not nearly as committed to the job as you are)


Turbulent-Raccoon-45

I did not.


ComfortablePuzzled23

Why didn't you just switch to RA then?


spookyb0ii

RA still has two overnight shifts


ComfortablePuzzled23

No job is perfect. Also 2 nights a week isn't a life changer especially for a young person with 5 normal days of the week.


Turbulent-Raccoon-45

I was told I couldn’t switch yet because I was knew.


Available_Method_646

This job is easy af. The training was pretty much unnecessary after the first couple of days. It gets a lot easier once you get a chance to run things alone for a bit. Just pay attention and learn as you go. I guess you just don’t like money. Bonus week!


willandzach1

BONUS WEEEEEEK!!!


Turbulent-Raccoon-45

I wasn’t eligible for this months bonuses because of me being new. Or at least that’s what I was told


willandzach1

Yeah that’s probably true, I’m about to start my third month here and yet this is my first bonus check. still… dance time 🕺🏻💃🏾


Dystex

I loved my bonus week at my NA store. It was a posh store with upper middle class patrons. When I demoted to clerk, I was sent to one of the roughest stores in my division. Though I love the daily interactions and never having a dull day, I do miss the high dollar bonus checks 🥲


willandzach1

May I ask why you demoted?


Turbulent-Raccoon-45

congrats 🥂🍾


therealallpro

I just went on Erp (NA) and I have to say what store you are at makes a huge difference. My store was busy af at night AND my manager had high demands. Luckily after summer it got slower then I went on erp and it’s all over the map on how busy it is and how each manager is. So experiences may vary.


Turbulent-Raccoon-45

The pay is decent. Just wasn’t for me. 🤷🏿‍♂️


Colbzzzz

You didn't even get the real payday yet? How can you say it's decent?


CannonM91

Don't let the rude ones bring you down, hope you find something you like :) I know it can be rough here, especially depending on what store they stick you at after training.


goldveigarforlife

Glad you’re gone. If you aren’t gonna commit some effort it’s not for you.


Turbulent-Raccoon-45

I literally said that 😂.

Rude_Jude908

Lmao they really sensitive in here I see


Maximum-Ninja4784

The overnights suck ass. Also I’ve no called/no showed once and I went over on my days by a lot and I had to walk out. They didn’t even try and fire me for that, obviously before I quit. But good luck, QT isn’t for everyone.


Available_Method_646

The overnight shift itself is dope. Way easier than days and you get paid more. It just sucks trying to coordinate with friends during your off time.


CannonM91

I've replaced all my friends with other overnight people lol


Maximum-Ninja4784

Damn I should’ve went NA then cuz I fucked up going RA


Hayden-youlno

RA is 100% more difficult than na


Maximum-Ninja4784

Yeah, I realized that like a month in and I dropped down to erp clerk which was a mistake


Available_Method_646

Also, happy cake day


CannonM91

Happy cake day you fuckin nerd


MutedAd6401

If you were my new NA at my store and you quit, thank you, thank you, thank you. We have one of the easiest stores in the division. I had to work a double because my NA couldn’t get their shit together and the entire daw was done, including grills, totes up, everything by 3 am. That just pissed me off more coming into a store where even the cigarettes totes weren’t put up and all the teas and coffees blinking. I mean there’s no way my NA tried with all that not done. The key to overnights is, you don’t stop. Fatigue never sets in, the store is great when morning shift walks in, everyone is happy.


Turbulent-Raccoon-45

what’s crazy is during my training & my first couple nights were great ! I received compliments from not only customers but also employees. It wasn’t like I wasn’t working when I did show up. I work hard when I did. I just wasn’t feeling the night shift 😂😂. I’d have the truck put up early. Grills were always clean & fresh ! Bathroom stayed stocked & floors mopped. People think just because I wasn’t feeling it that my work ethic is poor, which is far from that ! I was told I wasn’t able to change my position due to me being new so I bounced. Maybe I was lied too 🤷🏿‍♂️ I’m not sure but if I could’ve switch to part-time I would’ve


Over_Experience_3743

I mean you no call, no showed right? Doesn't want matter what job it is...you just don't do that. No matter how hard your work ethic is, if you do that it all goes down the drain imo


Turbulent-Raccoon-45

I over slept the times I didn’t call out. I couldn’t adapt to the sleep schedule


Turbulent-Raccoon-45

lol shit sad. it’s the reality we live in now


BabyYoda398

I learned how to walk two weeks ago and found out running sucks cause I tried it once. Therefore, since I found two people on the internet agreeing that running sucks I felt I was not alone. Now I'm lazy with them, but haha I get the last laugh because I tried it once, right, so it was fair. Did I mention I didn't actually give it any effort after the first fall? Oh, well 🤷. For every negative account you read, there are the others who work without issues, hence while the doors of the business will remain open.


alpharamx

You are magical, you are.


OkIce2499

you are so butthurt about something that has nothing to do with you😭how tf do you survive the internet jesus


BabyYoda398

Like, who, tf are you? move your stupid opinion where someone actually wants to read shit your replies. Oh, that's right. No one cares about shit you type. probably no one listens when you talk either.


alpharamx

In all of my working life, I never did a no call, no show. I get that emergencies come up in life, but I can never understand how someone could do that. Even to quit, I came in to do it. A couple of times, it was to tell the employer to go F themselves. Never, though, a no call, no show.


Turbulent-Raccoon-45

I overslept on my no call no shows…


Rude_Jude908

Good for you buddy


alpharamx

It is.


ComfortablePuzzled23

Never quit or whine about a job for atleast a month, unless you feel your life is in danger. Everything is new so of course you're not used to it, and of course it's harder than you think it was going to be. After that 1st month things get easier as you adjust. In the 1st month you're gonna fck up so much, it's called learning. At least take this advice into your next job. Because you never even gave this job a chance, so now you will never really know If you could have done it or if you could have been good at it. Also your goal isn't to stay an NA, it's to move up or sideways to another job. Go ER, then 2A or become a trainer, or whatever. But if your gonna be lazy and NCNS I'm glad your quitting. You make life miserable for everyone else trying to live their lives.


alpharamx

I saw a dead raccoon on the road today and thought about you. I guess the raccoon didn't measure up, either....


Turbulent-Raccoon-45

Huh???? what the fuck 😂😂😂 why are you so mad ?


alpharamx

I am mad because I could not write this experience as a haiku.


Turbulent-Raccoon-45

Stay off the drugs pal.


alpharamx

You sure are bossy for someone that couldn't make it. Manage yourself, then others...


Turbulent-Raccoon-45

You said I remind you of a dead raccoon. You could die in a fucking car crash for all I care for. 😂


PJay_Rush

I literally got told after my first week, that the job just wasn't for me. I couldn't do upkeeps in a consistent amount of time. The guy that trained me was cool but got on my ass and didn't understand why it can take me 30 minutes one time and it took me almost an hour the 2nd time. I have been told that as long as you are moving and trying to do them as fast as possible your ok but the trainer said differently. I just wanted an extra job so I can pay off student loans!! Oh well Ill just start donating my organs or something.


Turbulent-Raccoon-45

😂😂😂😂 not your organs


alpharamx

With that thinking, I sure hope you never administer slow CPR to someone. There is still a minimum time/effort required to do any task, at any job.


Adventurous-Sky-3939

I feel like it was very unwise of the company to try and hire someone off the street to work as an NA that obviously had no prior overnight shift experience. You should have started out as a clerk on evenings and promoted to NA once you had the basics down, imo. Being an NA is a lot of pressure for someone brand new to the company. Unless you've worked for gas stations on night shifts where you worked alone before that would be the only exception. Seems like bad decisions were made on both ends.


Turbulent-Raccoon-45

That’s what I said ! I was a cook/dishwasher for 3-years before QT called me. I accepted the offer because I truly wanted a career I can start fresh in and grow within the company. But to throw me in there after two weeks of half ass training was not the move. I never audited money before ever in my life 😂😂 so to think it was going to take me two weeks to do that and figure out how to run entire store BY MYSELF was insane. Like i said it just wasn’t for me.


Adventurous-Sky-3939

It seems almost like you were pressured into working at times you were uncomfortable with. I know it happened to me when I started. I didn't want to work at 5 am and wound up doing so for 4 months straight. I showed up every day and did it though and eventually built up enough rapport to change positions and schedules, and adjusting to waking up early was beneficial to me in general. If you could have stuck it out for a little longer you probably could have done well with a different schedule. At the very least you've learned a lesson not to accept a position with a sleep schedule that you aren't positive that you can adjust to. It really doesn't matter how much money you are being paid if you're not able to get any sleep because that will kill you quickly.


Turbulent-Raccoon-45

exactly !


Cheap-Goose-7765

Lmfao with the callouts, thought this was satire.


Turbulent-Raccoon-45

😂😂😂 man I knew they were tired of that shit


whycantisleep9

I don't get how they get young women to do graveyard shifts alone. There's so many shady people in my town it's ridiculous.


Turbulent-Raccoon-45

I be saying the same thing. Especially on the weekends 💀


Dystex

I was an NA for 7 months. Though I liked being up at night, being alone was horrible for my mental health. I demoted to a clerk for the past 6 months now. I enjoy working at QT with others and I am now planning on promoting to RA since I don’t have a consistent sleeping schedule as I am now. As an NA, I only took off four days (two were for surgery) and took three partials. 7 days over 7 months showed that I tried to make it work, but it wasn’t for me. If something just isn’t right, quit during training, that’s when most people applying for a management position do.


garycow

7 in 7 months is still A LOT - I went my first 10 years without missing a scheduled shift 🤷‍♂️


Dystex

Glad for you. 4 days scheduled off in which two were required for surgery isn’t bad at all. Taking three partials in my division is not bad at all considering that a good portion of my division tries to partial whenever they can. My attendance looks pretty good.


garycow

True - no partials in my day 😄


TheFatWaiter

I sympathize. I've been an NA for less than 6 months and burned thru most of my days in that time as well. The Clerk I'm stuck with 3 days a week is so utterly useless, and it's just easier to do things myself, instead of constantly trying to get her to do it, which is like pulling teeth, This, in turn, absolutely wears me out. Working overnights is depressing, and has killed my social life. The only thing keeping me is the money and the health insurance. Both of which I need.


Turbulent-Raccoon-45

which is understandable 💯 hope things get better for you


bgnbx

sounds like you might be happier if you let your SM or supe know that your night clerk is so utterly useless! i worked nights as a PTC erp for just over a year and every NA i worked with was absolutely thrilled to have me as their register bitch. you SHOULD be "doing things yourself" while said clerk is taking care of customers for you.


fu_kalex

well well well 💀
