We all know retail jobs usually end up having a list of rules that make 0 ounces of sense, but Gamestop is definitely taking the gold medal for dumb and unnecessary rules.

    They got rid of my manager because he used his employee discount to get his cousin a game for his birthday. They fired me and another person for participating in a weekly sale. They cleaned out my entire store without a month.

    "No sitting! Get up NOW! I don't give a damn you're paraplegic, you stand your entire shift and if you use the bathroom you do it with the door open because if I see you sit you're fired!"
  • @mooserocka522
    You missed one the reason I got fired by my district manager. I was seen cleaning the store before the store was closed. I vacuumed at 30 minutes before the store closed with no customers in the store cause I wanted to get out fast , I always did this for years and years I a, the only one who actually cleaned by the way. Yet they said you can’t do that during store hours hand in your keys lol.
  • @godlynewbie
    these rules feel like retaliatory measures against employees. god how i wish EVERY store employee would up and quit and leave these bozos running game stop high and dry with next to no work force. I've said it before I am so glad I never got hired for this dumpster fire company when i applied to years and years ago

    Not gamestop but I worked at Home Depot for years and it drove me nuts that every single position that involved working with customers had chairs except the service desk, where I worked, when he had to do our own job plus most of everyone else's because when the customers couldn't find them, they came to us. Pro desk, flooring, appliances, millwork specialist. It drove me nuts how blatantly disrespected we were there by our DM because we carried that entire goddamn store, none of us even took breaks because of how busy we got, but whenever we asked for a chair they were like "lol nah you guy's aren't specialists , sorry! :)"

    At Five Below, managers & associates had to greet every customer that walked in with "Hi, Welcome to Five Below" verbatim. When you're done ringing up the customer instead of saying " Have a good day!", we had to say " Thank you & have fun!" Coroprate would send their people in plain clothes & pretend to shop just to make sure staff were saying it.

    I worked for a grocery store in my home town in 2013 the assistant market manager after a meeting told all of us in the market there were going to be no more bathroom breaks while we were not at break or lunch me and the other guys there told him and the market manager f you if I got to use the bathroom I am going to. They then came back about a day later and said they weren't going through with the new rule.
  • "Hey I need you to come in and fill a shift" "You aren't supposed to contact me outside of work hours" *hangs up

    Years ago, when I was just working part-time, I was seriously considering getting a second job at the local Gamestop. I am so freaking thankful that it didn't pan out. I am now full-time at my original job.
  • @shieldslamtv307
    I had a manager who insisted we "agree" to having a timer on the bathroom stalls in both the men and women washrooms, you need to use the washroom you best be using that timer, and then report yes report your time to him directly and if the time isn't up to his "comfortable use of work time" you had to literally make up the time through either missing time on your lunch break or come in early or stay late, we all banded together brought that shit to his boss who didn't know this was going on and had his ass fired the next week
  • @kgrubb9398
    Back when I worked at Gamestop, I got written up so much because I wore comfortable shoes and would sit down. My Store Manager was allowed to wear tennis shoes, but the ASM and below were not.
  • @pushpopthemoogle
    I had gotten written up for working over 40hrs between two stores due to short staffed and call outs. District manager didn't care. District manager threatened to fire and write me up cause i couldn't work more than 20 hrs since my other job payed WAY more. Proceeded to quit and they asked me to come back cause the store needed someone to open the store.
  • @cshadow20
    Also I was written up because a customer wanted to exchange the Xbox they just bought for another because the one they bought didn’t work but they wanted to do this AFTER the store had closed and the registers were all shutdown. My manager says to me “the customer is always right” I said are you serious? You wanted me to open back up the computers, something yall told us not to do?
  • @MSinistrari
    The Gamestop I was at was so serious about the no sitting rule, there was only one chair in the place and it was by the manager's desk for manager use only. For breaks, if you wanted to sit you risked sitting on the curb out front because the strip mall had no benches. I'd be hunched over limping at the end of the night and it was jumping legs when I got home.
  • @jasoncaruso9189
    When I was an MIT for Gamestop in 2005 i thought it was so insane that we had to “borrow” hours from other stores in our district to cover shifts. Each store was slotted for a certain amount of hours and if you thought you were going to go over hours we had to call around and beg other stores for hours. Disgusting! They couldn’t just let us do our jobs without begging. In contrast, I am currently an hourly employee but I can work between 40-50 hours with no harassment from anybody, my choice on overtime.
  • @joelmitchell4289
    I know this is not in the realm of retail, but as a cook, I've never worked anywhere, at any restaurant, where you are allowed to keep water on your person! Its always, oh keep it in the employee area, or keep it in this inconvenient spot! Like its 120 degrees Fahrenheit, GAWD DAM IT, LET ME HAVE MY WATER!! And anyone that knows about line cooking, you know there is no time to go that extra step to get water that's all the way over there...
  • @SvendleBerries
    The whole "perception of laziness" always drove me crazy. I worked at McDonalds for a few years when I was younger and one manager would always be on people to "pretend like they are working" even when there was literally nothing to do and nobody to serve. Look, hows about you just pretend that Im pretending to work and we can forget about the whole thing?
  • @glennhay5628
    I was in game stop the other day and the poor girl behind the counter had to go the restroom so bad so was doubled over in pain. I told her I would wait until she went to check out. she told me if she went while customers were in the store she would be fired. there has to be another GameStop employee there before she could go. the other employee wasn't scheduled for another 2 hours.
  • @evilisfun9935
    I shop online and work from home. I know it isn't the solution, but I will never tolerate the constant disrespect of working or shopping in person.
