At 4pm today, we decided to shop at the newly built Family Dollar on Peach Orchard Augusta, GA. 6 or 7 customers were lined up to checkout, one checkout open, the only other checkout had a large hand written note taped to it "NO RECEIPT". Who cares if you get a receipt if you are buying toilet paper, dog food, etc.? 2 people were working, rather one was slowlly checking out people and the other guy was standing behind him holding any empty bag. Needless to say, we did not stay to checkout, neither employee apologized for the long wait, the guy doing the checking out actually turned the new monitor around so the girl checking out could see what was on the monitor, or to us standing in line, that is what it looked like. How can this store not afford to pay staff to work, they just built a new store across the road from the old one., put in sod and a underground watering sprinkler system, who cares if the grass is green if you cannot get waited on? Plus, the new checkouts are at 90 degree angles and you do not even know there are two unless omeone just happens to be working at the odd placed check. How are they going to account for the long lines at Christmas?
