From a co-workers point of view

Things About Kwik Trip You May Not Know
CSP Daily News

I've worked at Kwik Trip for exactly a year this month, and here's some things I've learned throughout my experience.

1. Our Mission Statement

Most co-workers know our mission statements like it is the pledge of allegiance, it is usually read at the beginning of every meeting.

2. Team Work

Everything we do we do with team work, which makes working so much easier.

3. Pay Day

We get paid every two weeks, and on each pay day we receive a free car wash which is a great bonus!


4. Employee Gift Cards

If our store does good in a certain area we all get gift cards, which is definitely a perk.

5. Friendly Competition



We love to have fun competitions within our co-workers such as: who can sell the most Karuba Gold coffees?

6. Commercials

Everyday you work you listen to the same commercials over and over, eventually you get them memorized.


7. Slogans


We always find it funny when our guests begin to say our slogans before us, such as, "see you next time!"


8. Christmas Bonus

All of our co-workers love and appreciate the 40% profit we get back during The Christmas Season.

9. Truck Days

Truck days are usually always hectic; trying to complete duties before the truck arrives while also prepping for truck is never easy!

10. Guests On The Phone

We really dislike when guests are on their phones while we are checking them out, it is very hard to get your attention while you're on your phone, and we want to have a conversation with you so we know you're getting good service!

11. Customers who pay in quarters

It is a pain to count, we do not enjoy it, but either way we will gladly take them from you because we want you to be happy!

12. EBT

We take EBT but it does NOT work on hot food.

13. $100 Bills Are Frowned Upon

It seems as if we always get them after we drop our $20 bills. The reason why we don't like $100 bills is because we are not supposed to keep anything higher then $10 bills in our drawers and we do feel guilty giving you all $5-$10 bills back in cash for a $100 bill.

14. Karuba Gold

We are one of the only gas stations with a Karuba Gold machine! (They use these at coffee shops like Caribou, and our iced ones are on sale for only $1.49 for the summer!)

15. Coupons

We do NOT do double coupon Tuesday days, but we do take competitor gas coupons. We usually take our own coupons when they're expired too, depending on what they are.

16. Rewards Cards


One of the major things we get asked is, "do you have gas rewards?" Yes, we do, but it is a debit card or a credit card that you use, and you get the rewards back quarterly instead of instantly.

17. Monthly Paper Ads

Every first Wednesday of the month we sell our coupons in the newspapers in our stores, you can save $20+ by buying just one paper!

18. THE TEAM

We treat our co-workers like family, and work together like a team, which is why I love my job the most.

19. We Care

We genuinely want you to walk out of our store happy, and we will do anything it takes to make you that way!


20. Guests

We appreciate all of our guests and the wonderful opportunity of a job that they give us!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
