Wait, you're bragging about a job you haven't got yet? QT hires maybe 2 out of every 10 applicants, so good luck.

good luck.... The sad part is QT been paying the same for years now... sad sad sad..

I'm 28 now.. and made 38K with them when I was 18-19 also... almost 10 years ago...

Thats the less income I made in a year...

Low ambitions ftl.


why is that low ambitions? I droped out of college when I was 17 to go FT @ 18 with QT 10 years ago...

There was nothing in college I wanted to do.. I was going for criminal justice... and just wasnt into it....

Is all personal preference really.. I mean, I have only had 2 jobs in my life.. and my 10+ years in Retail is just a plus now..

You can grow with any company.. the time you spent in school, I spent gaining experience and earning more income... is about the same time... shit, by the time you are done with school, Im making more money then you and closer to retirement.. of course depending on what you go to school for..

When I tell people Im a GM for Racetrac petroleum, they look at me like whatever.. honestly, I dont care.. Only a couple of people on here know my income... And they are blown away and shocked by it..... damn, and you work at a gas station.. lol

All it is, be smart about life decisions...

not really.full time employees just got a 3% pay raise 2 months ago. not a lot, worked out to about 35 cents/hour for me. 3 months before that, the part time guys went up a quarter.

I used to work for QT.. from 96 to 2001.

The person who started this thread said he was going on an interview tomorrow for assistant manager and said hes pay was going to be 30K+..


I said, I made 38k working at QT back in 1998 as an assistant.. which sounds to me, like there pay hasnt changed much.

hope you enjoy working the overnite shift...I tried it and it sucked...you aren't a manager really, you are a janitor...they should change the job title...all I did was take out trash, clean bathrooms and drink machines, etc...they also don't tell you that after you are out of training you are the only one there overnite by yourself...no thanks...I now work in a retail job where I manage a staff of people each shift not be the only one there like at QT on the overnite shifts...

depends what store you at.. the have store where they have 2 people working, they called them Urban stores aka hood stores..

I remember when I was there, they had cops on all shifts (701) the old one... Not sure now.

I started, PT - FT- FTER- CT- 2A- RNA- I.T- 1a-1aer- Mgr Coverage then left... lol...

not sure how they do it now...But notice the pattern... I worked the RNA schedule for about 6 month @ 759 which is old peachthree.. It was a piece of cake.. I kinda like working by myself at night.. I never felt scared and it was a breeze...

Money was good, One year I made 58K as a I.T..21 years old....I.T bonus was the shit...

Travel center , I can only imagine.. SM making 6 figures there I heard? I believe it.. I worked there , well @ fulton industrial one for 2 month, one bonus was like 1300 and the other was like 1200, If I remember.. I was like WOAH!

But RT bonus are about the same also.. to bad clerks at RT do not get a bonus which is lame.. but hey.. one day.

julio has to work at racetrac, hed get bored sitting at hime, making money from IA doing nothing lol!

but julio i had no idea you started as PT. thats pretty nifty shit.

some people told me i should also think about being a CT-makes pretty good $ and you can jump straight to 2a from it like you did. i would enjoy being a trainer but im really anxious to be an assistant, and then perhaps an IT down the road. which would you recommend? me being NA or CT first?

I left there in 2001.. Not sure how things have changed... But yes, I started as a PT clerk back in 96, I was going to college and droped out and decided to pursue to my retail career.. I wanted to be a cop.. lol, with a criminal justice degree you couldve start of making more money.. lol..

But , I dont regret it one bit..

I left, Because RT offered me more money.. and I started hatting Craig hall (not sure if still there)

But I had diffrent bosses while I was there.. I had, Dan Covel, Marc Milburn, Kevin Thorthon, Sharif and Bill barrett who are no longer there..
I worked under Jim Klun and CIndy Runion, Dewey Wagner... not sure if they are still there... My cooler Boss there was Rob Barber, who died in a wreck back in 00 or 01... he was crazy and cool as hell.

But yea, I moved up quick, But came across a man called Craig hall.. That dude ruin my career with them... Im glad RT came along at the right time... and offered me more cheese... But QT was good to me, other then Craig hall..

He pretty much told me I was to young to be A store Manager... 20 years old and put me on MGR coverage.. and then stuck me back in a store as a 1a... Boy oh boy... If It wasnt because of him, I wouldve still be there...

CT was a good stepping stone to learn people skill at a lower level.. I.T was my best position there.. even better then 1a.. One, I was in different places every 2 weeks and made more then 1a's and in some cases more then some Store managers.... and it thought me alot of skills, because you are dealing/training with more serious employees, people who really need the job.. when training clerks, most still live at home, really dont need a job and really careless... , but thats only some...

But just stay on good people side man, and you can make money...

RT FTW. Their station on Pleasant Hill in Duluth has awesome prices on fuel. On Friday they were $0.16 less than the local QTs. Pretty damn nice savings when you are driving a big Ram Hemi. She loves to eat haha.

I remember back in '95 when the other location on PH closer to Lilburn opened and had regular unleaded for like $0.75 a gallon! :goodjob:

They do hire NA's and RA's straight off the street. You don't have to be already in the company as a part time clerk or full time clerk.

As for me I started as a part time clerk and was going to college. I worked at 764 and it was short staffed so when summer started I was working 60 hours a week @ part time. Then I realized I should be paid full time if I'm working that many hours. Since I decided not to go back to school, I asked for a promotion and got it in March of this year as a full time NIGHT clerk at 707 (Which is pleasentdale rd.).

Are you surprised or something? I mean, I wouldnt be surprised if you are though, most people think is just a low paying blue collar job....

I mean, the higher you move up the more you make... Im a GM now.. Next position for me should be close 80k.. yeah, a Convineince store..

We have GM's making 80k+ Now.....

I know for fact QT is the same way... my last full year with QT was 2000, I made 58k.. Then, I left QT in June of 01, I was already at 31 K when I left....

You think I was going to leave QT for less then what I made that last year before that.. lol


If you decided not to go to college,make sure your priorities are straight.. Find a good company to work for, do your research about what ever company you are looking at.. You already dropped out of college..
There is hope for people without college degrees out there..

College is great, if you stick to it and pick your career wisely. I was a dropout =[


There are tons of companies out there with potential.... Cingular, sprint, verizon, Walmart, krogers, Brinks, publix,bestbuy this are some of the companies that if you start at the bottom, you can make good money once you start moving on up.. there are more companies.. just cant think right now.

On a bad week, I work 45 to 50 hours.. Mond through friday...

QT is a Corporation; asking for raises isn't that easy.

As for working there, i am currently employed there but i can't imagine working there for the rest of my life. It's the same shit everyday. I've been there for almost a year and i'm bored of having to do the same things day in and day out.

Ive worked at 804 for a year now. QT is definately a great fall back but not what im looking to do for the rest of my life. Im only 17 and have alot to make my mind up on. If QT opened a new division or plans to within the next few years then I would consider moving to it and working my way up to a supervisor position. It seems like the Atlanta division is just too developed to move up easily.

Man i'm the same as you. age and same future plan of not having the job for the rest of my life Lol. Even if they opened a new division, they would probably get the best manager in the Atl division to become supervisor. Working your way up the corporate ladder is all about who you know. thats why is sucks working for corporations.

Ive worked at 804 for a year now. QT is definately a great fall back but not what im looking to do for the rest of my life. Im only 17 and have alot to make my mind up on. If QT opened a new division or plans to within the next few years then I would consider moving to it and working my way up to a supervisor position. It seems like the Atlanta division is just too developed to move up easily.

804 is 78 and rockdale right? i lived (and will live soon) 5 minutes from there. and i have worked there before, although my base store was 796.

thats a crock of shit at qt. ive seen so many people i know move up in short periods of time its unbelievable. that would be funny if they ALL knew people. or maybe they are known because they hustle and deserve to move up?
