Apparently it was in the packet of info they gave me at orientation but I didn't read it. I didn't realize I couldn't return ANYTHING if I used a coupon. It was something stupid too and most of what I returned wasn't even coupon things. I was pissed.

They had AP and all that in the room like I'm a criminal or some shit.

That is crappy. They should have gone over that with you. Anything that is grounds for immediate termination should be discussed with you.

Oh, Dreeme, I'm so sorry. I know you were excited about your new job too.

Don't feel like a criminal. It's pretty much standard procedure anywhere to have security present when someone is terminated. And to escort the person out. It isn't just you.

So sorry.

Okay, someone needs to Slap me.

We have this neighbor... and I should really ignore her, not think about it, not let it get under my skin, turn the other cheek, be the bigger person, blah blah blah and every other cliche you can think of... What I really want to do is Bash

She's all Biggrin2 to your face and then Secret behind and it's darned annoying. Sure, everyone here knows that and doesn't really believe what she's saying, but it's ridiculous AND it's annoying. Especially when it's about my kids.

That's funny. It's just a such really common name, I guess I didn't think anyone would find it unusual. Ya know what I don't get though? What's up with that -- Richard, I get Rich, Richie. Robert, ok, Rob, Robbie. But what's with Dick, Bob, Bill for William and a bunch of others like that.

Well I was clueless because I didnt really know much about anything, we met very young at 13&14 so I guess I just was unaware it was short for Richard at the time.laugh out loud

I bought some things, some with coupons, some without, and returned some of the items a few days later. Then I used my discount card to pay for my sisters prescription and used the GC I got from that return to pay for it. They said that isn't allowed and is immediate termination.

Wow, Jamie. You would think they would have some sort of acknowledgement you have to sign that you understand and put it in your file. I know here, I have to resign everything any time something changes, just did the Handbook one this morning.
Ank, what the heck is someone talking smack about your kids for? Jesh.

Oh, I'm so sorry,seems like they are as difficult to work with when it comes to Q's as they are to shop at hug.Mad

I think it was cause for immediate termination they should have emphasied it at orientation.

Do you have a wegman's close, they are rated one of the top ten companys to work for .

Coupons rang up $1.50 for both.
It totally refused the 3rd, right?

Almost forgot to answer this. Once upon a time I had done the math to figure it out in my area - but I can't seem to find where I had saved the info. Anyways, I figured out that when there is a gc deal, it *almost* doubles the gift card amount and subtracts that from your subtotal, then subtracts the coupons, then I forget if it figures the tax then reads the gc amount or vice versa...

It's very convoluted and involves your tax rate and percentage of the total or something along those lines. Basically, what it did was take the 12.72 (4.24*3), subtracted 9.XX (just enough to keep it at approximately $3.00 oop before q's and after the gc), tried to take the coupons but only had enough for 2 to attach to, then re-added the 4.XX amount before charging you the final total.

Hopefully your brain doesn't hurt after reading that - and I realize it probably doesn't actually explain that much... It's just wonky T. Sorry...

Cuz they are ignorant idiots that like to stir up trouble and don't know who they are messin' with. I've heard they are planning to move though - so I am trying to decide if I should just ignore it or head over and say something.

Iagree

Basically if you used your discount card and returned something in the same transaction that you used coupons, you can be fired? No matter what the reason you are returning? (exchanging for size or color, item is broken/ spoiled). That isn't fair imo.

Oh well. I guess I'm gonna have to move on.
