    I've worked on checkouts for officially four years on the 27th. Didn't realise that til just now... wow :S I did like two or three produce shifts, it seemed alright. Apparently Nontrade is pretty good too, although the only experience I've had with that is helping the SSA take down tickets when...

    A- ar- ar- are you serious? I simply cannot fathem the reason for the amount of times I have heard that song. Just to make sure you know which song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V9BZDpni56Y Or there's this one, which is the John Lenon song. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yN4Uu0OlmTg...

    Haha I meant that with sarcasm. I'm sick of it, it's the only one I recognise each year, apart from that one by John Lenon. And agreed about the QTY thing though, lol. Lucky that's not my problem. ;) We hired heaps of new staff, oh my god, I've realised how shit at training I am haha.

    Especially Paul McCarthy's song. "...the spirit's up, we're here tonight, and that's enough." I think we can all relate to that ha. We got a CoreComm's yesterday saying that all Service Cashiers can now use the Qty function, where previously only Service Supervisors could override it. One of...

    Ahh righto, cheers mate. Turns out that there was some mix-up in the story... the girl called her own her own phone while she was on her tea break. So no such process can happen :( but I know the person in question, so it should have been easy to ban to issue if she came in again... maybe? Oh...

    Hey guys, I have a question. I supervised tonight, and half way thru my shift, one of my operators went out the back crying, and I sent one of her friends to comfort her. I asked if she was alright when she came back out, but she didn't let on much, so I shrugged it off. Later in the night, the...

    Yeah, well usually I just let whoever do whatever. Some people I leave on their register purely because they don't want to get off. But this lady stays on, and seems to think I have it out for her. Weird :S That looks weird. Is it supposed to be so the customer can take their own bags? Or...

    Are you staying on here? :) I broke our cigarette cabinet again, which is amazing. This lady I mentioned earlier also had words to me about "favouriting" one of the other operators, when I was doing no such thing. This operator always just gets off his register and stays off. He does jobs, so...

    She really is, she's one of the older staff. She's been in our store since it opened, and was booted from the deli for causing shit over there. She's been on checkouts ever since. She doesn't keep the diary on her at work, she must write it at home, literally no joke, when she isn't seving she...

    Big conflict at our store for no reason other than one of our operators not getting promoted to a supervisor. She's apparently keeping a diary complete with everything the other supervisors do, and anything negative, she puts in. For example, if we are doing "nothing" at the service desk for...

    I'm fairly sure I'm going to stab someone soon if I hear that "Cats need their food in room temperature and in a clean bowl, blah blah blah Fancy Feasts". Seriously! They interject that ad at least every two songs, it is seriously starting to get to me. EDIT: Wow, what happened to all the pages?

    WOW! That store looks awesome :) So does that mean it's only for managers and 2ic in liquor? Or all part-time/full-time employees? Time to go to work.

    My contract just had my hours on it. It also had a few different sets of terms, which we ticked the appropriate set for the contract. For example, something along the lines of * This is a contract for permanent set of hours for part-time. * This is a temporary contract for a set of hours...

    The awkward moment when you find out a regular you've been serving for years (that you have no idea who they are) are actual related to you :rolleyes2: Nice :) How lovely of them. But yea, which idea was it? :)

    Ha, we don't have a dedicated smokeshop attendant. The supervisor, or a free operator usually just serves smokes when we need to. This gets quite annoying when it's insanely busy and we have the supervisor on express, everyone off the floor on registers, and a huge queue at cigarettes. They get...

    My CSM is pondering giving Supervisor numbers to this operator who has always wanted it. She has caused a bit of shit around the store, and she's been in our department for four months and already is getting pissed about younger ones being a supervisor. If the CSM gave the numbers to her...
