People might not realize that often employees are mentally challenged and or having hard luck to be employed by Goodwill. They might not have the same thought process as you do. We've had a few act rude and even a couple act out. You need to understand that you help some get a job that might not otherwise be employable. Of course there are intelligent, calm, and critical thinkers employeed to. Give grace and be grateful your able to help. The person we came in contact today never spoke as he unloaded our truck with our help. He dropped boxes with cups and glass. We asked him not to drop the next box so hard and he did. To me these are treasures I'm getting to donate because I have too much as we're downsizing homes. I presume to him it's more junk he has to wade through today.

Read moreI love shopping at Goodwill because the inventory is random. There’s always something different to choose from. I do have a serious problem with their absurd pricing now days. They went private & got greedy. They say they charge about 25% of original cost but that’s BS. They’re pricing around 50% & more. The inventory is used & you get it for free. Some of your workforce is free labor too. This puts your margins insanely huge. They gotta be making bank.
