24 hour stores closing at night.
Permalink   


The store I work at is changing from a 24 hour store to one that closes from 12 a.m.-6 a.m.  next week.  Anyone have any experience with this and will night crew be affected?

I work on night crew in a store that closes at midnight.  Its great and peaceful once they all leave.  I listen to my mp3 player once the store closes.  I don't think you will be affected.  I mean you can't buy anything after 12 but they will want you there to look after the place.

I've worked midnights in a store that is 12-6 closed.  As said, its pretty peaceful.

Some stores in our area let the employees keep a register drawer open in case employees want to purchase something.  There were some senior people where I work who worked nights who commented that we were the only store in the area that didnt do that.

starting next week my store is closing at 1am opening at 5am. i think the reason is to cut down on theft.

from 12- 6 my store is open i would say maybe 40-80 People come by for a few things. if it did close during this time it would affect a few but really theft isnt a huge problem at our store. we have really good security.

i think they do it because less cost of having it open all night. my store closes at 1am and opens at 6. i wish it were 24 hrs though

Better hope they don't start putting 2+2 together. WinnDixie started closing at 11p and 12p not just to curb stealing, cut electricity but to also cut out the extra $0.50 an hour that night employees make. WD had stockers coming in at 4pm till 11 or 12p. Tons of money saved but winds up in execs and shareholders pockets. They loose a little income on sales but make up for it in wages saved.
