    Have you read notalwaysright.com ? That's got some good stories. Oh okay. Which city is your store in? My commute is 17 minutes by car.

    Even if it's a $400 order? I have only done that once, never again. Refunded a $160 order and put it though again. When you do a refund transaction, it does not take into account multi buy specials and some ordinary specials, so the till ended up being like $40 over all week because we didn't do...

    I can't be bothered arguing with them ha. Some lady was arguing with me about not earning points on her smokes, I gave up because "clearly" she was right (I don't argue with stupid people). Yeah I am a supervisor. And one hour?!?! Holy crap!!! Is that by car? Bernie what state are you in that...

    Don't feel bad. Are you casual? If you are, they can't force you to work, and so long as you give them as much notice as possible then there shouldn't be an issue. Seriously, that is part of the produce manager's job, to replace shifts etc. they will be fine. Just let them know ASAP :)

    There are some customers who are absolutely awesome. A few of ours: * one of the checkout girls was pregnant and even after she started her maternity leave there were people asking all the time about whether she has had the baby yet, and giving well wishes. I thought that was awesome! *...

    Yeah I do. And I agree. I hate mains, my back, neck and shoulders get very sore when I am serving on mains for extended periods. EDIT: I just found one of the old "My Family" shirts that we had to wear years ago, remember that failure of an advertising campaign? [emoji23]

    A lot of customers walk up to our express lanes and go "oh. I was looking for the self serve" It's kind of annoying to be honest, I think we are the only store in our area that doesn't have it. We still have the old Woolies logo for our storefront and on the front doors and stuff, but we have...

    Replenishment covers the both long life and perishables departments. Inventory is concerned with excess stock, overstocks, and stuff like that I believe. Obviously there's way more to it but just that it is about the store's inventory. Replenishment manager reports to store manager, same with...
