    The Woolworths Thread

    I reckon at my store that the arrows will be blocking the security cameras' line of sight at the opposite end of the aisle to where they are mounted...they're hung at about the same level.

    I'm pretty sure they came 100 to a bundle. So put me down for about 550-odd... :s

    I know my office cashier well. You probably can't officially waive it (I've only ever done it unofficially, so I'm not sure), and it's not a fact I publicise within the store that I do it (I only mentioned it here because I'm pretty sure I haven't divulged too much about myself to make me...

    Having departments fighting over you, especially if you're often on near-full hours every week, can backfire spectacularly, especially if your original department(s) have a small group of staff, in that the DM/CSM can get fairly shitty if they go to call you in to cover a sickie only to find...

    Heh, 7 day weeks. The joy. I find my 7/3 roster (and subsequent four days in a row off) to be most brilliant.

    Planograms in my store are generally made into paper aeroplanes in the office and thrown at the bin on the other side of the room.

    Get your storeperson to ask the Coke rep for spare 18- and 30-pack boxes. We got a whole stackload of empty 30- and 18-packs for Coke/Diet/Zero, so we can just re-do damaged boxes. Alternatively we just sell them to the Social Club. I don't think I have ever seen soft drink reduced in our...

    It needs it - worst looking Woolies ever. I'll ask at my work tonight if they've heard anything about it being closed.

    I believe that may be your foodbank login - at least, 885 is our foodbank login, so it strikes me as slightly more than coincidence. 'Foodbank' being the donation thing we do where we send stock back to the DC rather than throwing it in the bin - the reason separate numbers are needed is to keep...

    Re: fingerscanner for lunches, I don't think I've signed in and out for lunch since some time before christmas 2008. It's been that long since I've done a shift that doesn't require a roster adjustment, so I figure I may as well just note my meal on that and not bother signing out. Plus it means...

    Chucking the shits at management is a rite of passage for Woolworths employees. It often earns you more respect as well, provided you don't swear at them and/or don't do it in front of customers. Provided it isn't based on selfish motives (ie. your roster/wanting days off) but rather about...

    42 hours pw during exam periods. Gotta love Woolies for trying to hinder an employees' education.

    Suggestions for liquor collections

    You should probably learn both some basic maths (as noted on every post I make, HSC: 2007 = 18/19/20, I'm 19 for the record), some sense of style (collecting liquor is a legitimate hobby), and also some decorum (ie. learn what sort of comments are both inappropriate and purely disruptive to a...

    Suggestions for liquor collections

    Dunno, to be honest! :) Depending on what it is, some of them I may drink and put back half-full bottles (eg. the Absolut 9-bottle collection, if I end up doing that one, because they're great for cocktail nights when friends come around). With the Johnnie Walker, probably not, at least not for...

    Suggestions for liquor collections

    Hi all, I recently managed to free up a number of shelves on a bookcase in my room. I've decided that I want to populate them with collections of liquor. So far I've done a Johnnie Walker 700/750 collection (ie. Black, Green, Gold, Blue, and Swing, with their boxes behind them). This is where...

    Avoiding checkout training like the plague is always a good tactic, if it's not too late.
