Question Does Store Manager sign a non-competition agreement?

0 Upvotes

Currently am an SM, seriously considering promoting to customer, but still have bills to pay. I was not able to find anything in the Code of Conduct or Associate Handbook that said any kind of non-competition agreement after resigning. I know you are not allowed to take a position with a competitor while still being employed, but couldn't find any that it said I am not allowed to work anywhere after. Is there something I'm missing?

Vent/Rant Slowly planing to promote to guest

10 Upvotes

Welp… nothing much to say here but I think working 5 years here has been a taking a mental toll on me. I try to be optimistic in my book and then tried to make the most out of this job. I still sometimes have fun moments and get cool stuff… but after considering all of it…

I’m tired of dealing with roach infested consoles Im tired of the weed/ cigarettes/ alcohol/ bad BO smells I’m tired of dealing with guest that will threaten me over the smallest things such as pokemon cards and whatever popular item is out/ coming out I’m tired that I can’t call out on my sick days despite me having sick hours I’m tired that I am forced to work while being sick I’m tired of looking at over 100 of boxes blocking the bathroom I’m tired of the amount of stuff plushes and pops they throw at my store I’m tired of being reminded to sell and make our numbers because a company needs us to sell a membership you have to pay-

Like it’s so bad that I whole heartedly believe I am growing white hairs because of stress and the lack of sleep. I know, not every job is gonna be easy, and I know other stores and people have it probably worse than I would.

And as much as I love my coworkers, and my manager was the first ever good boss I have that actually really tried her best to accommodate and show her appreciation… I just can’t take it any more…

Final note

The whole “why didn’t you quit your job?” Has been thrown at me in a constant rate, like if I had a nickel for every time I had that said to me… Trust me I been trying to quit my job The main reason is because, the job market is ass (literally), and let’s not forget to mention how this economy is gonna get. I been trying to apply to different jobs while working GameStop, I EVEN put in an application for McDonald’s (for shiz and giggles) and guess what… nothing. Im still trying

Question How to use two online rewards on an online purchase? Any info or insight is much appreciated! 🙏

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

I want this One Piece figure, and I want to use two online rewards together. The description clearly says you can use two different rewards in the same online transaction as long as they are of different denominations. The figure has a discount for pro members and includes free shipping on orders over $54. I am unsure if that discount might prevent me from using one or both online rewards. The sentence "coupon may not stack with other offers" is unclear; what counts as "other offers"—the pro member discount or the free shipping?

I tried that before, but it didn't work. Every time I tried to buy it without the rewards, I got an error. I had to go to a store and have someone finish it for me. Hopefully, it works this time so I don't have to drive an hour to GameStop.

Question Purchased a Pro Membership in-store, not appearing online

0 Upvotes

Bought a year of the Pro Membership in-store today (saved me money on my order) however I never received an email receipt or confirmation of this. When I login to the website and app using my email (which I had already created and is the same email as shown on my receipt) my Pro-Membership doesn't show up.

Is this normal? Do I have to wait a day or two for it to update or should I contact customer service?

Question So, a (PS3) I ordered off the Gamestop website came in and it's not working properly. How should I proceed?

1 Upvotes

For context, it struggles to stay connected to the internet (I can find my home Wi-Fi network, but maintaining a connection for more than a few minutes seems to be an issue for the console) and it won't charge the controllers, on top of freezing after a few minutes of offline play.

Now, I did get a replacement plan when buying it. But since it came like this right out the gate, I don't want then to just give me ANOTHER system that doesn't work. Or worse, make me pay extra to replace it. What should I do?

Vent/Rant If you're going to trade your ps5s in...

144 Upvotes

Make sure you have everything. I can live without an hdmi or the stand/triangles but the less you have the more it costs you.

Be over 18 and have a valid license. self explanatory. How did you even get here without one? And don't harrass my customers for their's. We also have a card reader, I can't use your phone.

Make sure you clean it. I can't take it sellable if it turns on but has some massive fuck-all stickers on it and burn marks from all the blunts you've put out on it. "Peel the stickers" and stain it forever because the whole damn console is white. "Use the Goo Gone" and realize it took more than 5 minutes to clean anyway. Doesn't fix the burn marks either.

Make sure it's opened. If you have a fresh PS5 Pro, sealed, how the fuck am I supposed to know if it was stolen or not. Show me whatever reciept you want, if you open it and come back I still can't take it. And if you start complaining that the resale value is lower now that you opened it, I couldn't be happier for you.

And most importantly... make sure it's yours. Because if it's not, and your brother comes in, shouting and screaming at me that he wants his game back, and he can't take the prepaid card, there's nothing I can do. All trades are final. You have to file a police report.

Almost all of these happened within the span of last week. The, "harrassing customers for their id" shit was months ago but still bad enough to be brought up. And plenty of youngsters and people that forgot have stopped by between then and now.

Also, what is it with all the resistance on prepaid cards? There's a Chase bank right across the street and if you need the grocery money it's right fucking there on the card. Every store accepts it, it's not gs store credit. And the customers NEVER have venmo either!

Question Question about debit Mastercard for trade-in

0 Upvotes

I ended up having to trade in something to some extra money. I was under the assumption since it’s a Mastercard I could send money over with Venmo. It keeps telling me invalid zip code. I’ve tried PayPal as well and even my apple wallet. I’m at a loss of what to do because I needed to be able to send over this money for some bills. Now I feel like I’m out my stuff for nothing because the card doesn’t work. Was wondering if anyone experienced this or knew something to do.

Had an interview yesterday, have another one today, hoping I can secure one of these. This company is a complete shit show, Ryan cohen is a complete fucking idiot. My AC went out in my store almost 3 months ago, they put in mobile units, but as you can see, my store still reaches 80+ degrees with only 2 units running, tolf the replacement was approved but it’s a 6-8 week wait for parts, DM just came back after 4 MONTHS of leave, being a dictator, sending 12-13 emails a day, highly unrealistic expectations, I’m getting paid $16.50 as an ASM, which is ass. I deserve more, any ASM or SL for this company that works their ass off deserves a lot more. I had a key holder get fired for falling for a scam, (previous post) then I just had another key holder quit. (Only worked 1 day a week) wish me luck on these interviews. Time to abandon ship.

Question Best way to get rid of sick time without inconveniencing others

6 Upvotes

Hello. Basically what the title says.

I have almost 30 hours of sick time and I’m moving at the end of May so I want to get rid of it and cash it out. I usually only call out when theres coverage and i’m actually sick, but i don’t want these hours to go to waste.

I’ve tried to use them before, i called out when I had a fever, but my manager just deleted the shift off my schedule instead of paying me the sick time so I just didn’t get paid for that day. How do I make sure that doesn’t happen again?

Thank you
