No, you didn't make a mistake. The $200 happened in June last year but the $300 happened in May this year. So now I'm puzzled. :(

Well, that's alright but the $300 happened in May this year. :( There was also around $40 short on Xmas eve but there were 3 others using the register I used.

Yes, I'm in WA. :) And yea, we did get a huge load in today. I was at the backdock dumping cardboard boxes into the baler when some guy came and told me (he was at the receiving dock which is near the baler) to tell the manager of Perishables that the load's arrived. I wasn't the only one there...

Thanks. I'll check it out tomorrow. 830-1 in Perishables (I got called in because my sup said no one was gonna be on it tomorrow. I also asked her who to report to in Perishables but she said no one would be there, just rock up to the service desk. Does that mean I'm BOSS in Perishables...

I'm sorry but this may sound a little weird but how do we check wish gift card balances? I normally put it through as a $0.01 when they pay up cuz 99.99999% of them don't know the balance or have conveniently dumped the receipt with the balance on it. Is it under WOWCARD ENQUIRY?

Happy Xmas eve to everyone who's working! I've got an 8am start...I should really be getting to bed! :) Night everyone!

Actually when my supervisor told me it was 2.5x, I took it to mean 2.5x my pay rate but apparently, it's 2.5x the standard pay rate, whatever that is? Another supervisor told me just now that on Sundays, it's standard pay rate multiplied by 20% and then by 2.5. I nodded my head but my mind was...

I've got a question about pay rates to ask. Hopefully one of you could help me. I'm a casual service cashier and when my supervisor came round asking if I could work on Sundays, Boxing Day and 28/12, I said I could so she put me down. Thing is, she told me Sundays would be paid double time and a...

Whoaaaa...OMG. That husband must have been really traumatised and desperate. :S Did a staff member happen on him as he was hanging himself? *wince* Yea townie, I told my supervisor about my leave in September and I'm casual. Actually I thought it worked the other way round that casuals are...

Re: woolies uestion Really?? Huh... When I took the diary today to put in something I missed out the other time, one of the supervisors told me, "If you are thinking of taking leave in December, you can forget about it." I told her that it was approved by my other supervisor but I was kinda...

Re: woolies uestion Yea, I wasn't hired as a christmas casual. I told my supervisor that I needed time-off during Dec/Jan till mid-Feb because I was going home. I told them at the end of September. She told me that staff apparently weren't allowed to take leave during the Dec/Jan period (I...

I get customers asking me what is the maximum cashout they can get. I still tell them $400. I'm not gonna tell them $1000 because most of the time, I don't have that much cash in my till and even if I do (short of having heaps of $50s in there), I'd clear them out at once if I gave some guy $1k...

Yes, my store was. My register was working fine until around 4+pm when it started not to accept credit cards and it went downhill after. Whenever a customer came through, I was praying and hoping they wouldn't pay by credit card. Irritating. My supervisor told me finally to close up and keep...

one of my friends is a self-serve checkout assistant there and she just turned 15 yesterday so I don't really think there's an age limit. As long as you know how to use the machines, it's probably ok.

Most people I see who ask for cashout normally ask for $40, $50 or $100 lol but I once had this weird guy who leaned over the counter (freaking me out a little in the process) and asked for $374.50 (or something like that). In my mind, I was thinking, "What?! That's such a weird number!" But I...

You just have to tell your manager or store manager. For our store, the sign said, "Anyone interested in being a self-serve checkout assistant please see <store manager's name>" Does anyone know if I can use my staff discount card to help a friend buy petrol? I mean, we're likely to be...

I was taught the max cashout in woolies was $400. No one's told me of any extras lol.

Our store has the self-serve checkouts as well and the express counters have been refitted with scanning systems similar to the large checkouts. However, our large checkout scanners still remain the same. Haha. Apparently, my store's having a re-launch this week. I just went into the store today...

Wow you're great! I didn't get my finger scan number and locker till a couple weeks after my first shift lol.

I called in sick anyway but my supervisor asked if I could come in and do the tickets anyway and I said alright. Lol. Least I'll get something this week. :P
