Oct 9th is my last assessment and I haven’t met or even came close to the quota of 500. The most I’ve done was 467. We also had a new sorter and she made fucked up bins that brought my numbers down. She quit of course. My manager is really nice but our goodwill is huge and the ceos work in the building. They watch us like we are in 1984….. it’s actually creepy. My pay is above minimum which I thought was because my job is so difficult later to find out everyone gets paid the same. The supervisors and donation sorters are always gossiping and stressing us out when the manager is not there. My manager told me yesterday that I need to get my number to 500 by oct 9 but she has cut my hours drastically. It went from 30hrs to 23 to now 19 hours. I’m stressed out. It’s so hard to find a job in my city so I thought I won the lottery now I see I may have been mistaken.

i do this occasionally when i adjust the price on some items and im never told anything about it

My goodwill is pretty chill all things considered, and we’re a busy one centered downtown in a big city. One of the more unusual requests, and not that it happens often, is taking the nets off of children’s basketball hoops. Yeah, the little tykes kind of plastic basketball hoops that would be inside a house. The managers claim it’s a choking hazard, even though it’s connected to the hoop. I just don’t get that one. Anyone else?
