I do the frozen face test. Put the product on your cheek, if it makes your cheek frozen then its ok. But if it makes it not frozen then it has to be dumped. When refunding before you put the product on your face remind the customer that you have to do the "frozen face test" otherwise it looks weird.

So how do you know it hasn't been sitting in the sun, defrosted and then they refroze it?I do the frozen face test. Put the product on your cheek, if it makes your cheek frozen then its ok.

I agree; we're a big enough company that we don't need to take unnecessary risks with frozen food refunds.
Lol. I was at salvos once looking for stuff for an 80's themed party, and saw a green woolworths vest in the racks. hahaha! I was like?? Who would buy that?Worst shift yesterday. I was supposed to do 4-8:30 (First after school shift since yr 12 has begun!) I had been sick as a dog all day, Stayed at school considering I was feeling like death, my registers converer belt didnt work, I had two $10 in my till and 1 bag of 5c pieces and 1, $1 and 2 $2 coins. But By 6:30 I had to go home, I nearly feeling so sick....plus my supervisor was super nice about it so that was a plus
But on friday night, I nearly died with laughter, walking down the street was a person in an orange woolworths frequent flyers t-shirts and hat, and just dressed in casual pants and I'm sorry but since does woolworths promotional clothing appear to be seen as a fashion "trend"

lol I was scared for a second that you were going to finish that post with "and I bought it", haha.
Hahahaha! No I have 3 and my mum has like 4. Lol. Just went to my store to get some things and they have re-branded it with all the new signage =D
We also have to get a new service desk cos the current one we have has windows at the front on the smoke cupboards, so instead of keeping it covered with ugly black card board they're giving us a whole new one =DD They did the refurb wayyy before they knew that stupid law would come out.
Always dump it, you never know what the customer has been doing with it. I always dump dairy stock too for the same reason, better to be safe than sorry.

I applied for store operations for sales and customer service. Can someone tell me what are the main roles? Sorry for all the questions.
Thankyou.

It all counts
$3.98/kilo?! Where were you, in the middle of Sydney? What a rip-off! Most I have ever seen them is $2.75 at my store. Will admit that they look 200x better than Coles. At least it sort of looks like a market.
Poor produce guy would be doing a coronary over his banana prices. Must be comp checking and getting raped. Doubt he would be making money actually on them.

EDIT: although they seem to be using a font very similar to Coles'.

biggest lol of my day: my SM is buying an iron and an ironing board because he's sick of people coming from uni/school looking "like true students" (his words, not mine).
i am glad that i was not the particular person he picked out, because i look pretty bad on thursdays generally
EDIT: apaz treeman is okay.

When I have to work straight after school I just put my clothes neatly folded into a shopping bag and leave that in my locker.biggest lol of my day: my SM is buying an iron and an ironing board because he's sick of people coming from uni/school looking "like true students" (his words, not mine).

Thats what I do, except I leave mine in my car. But apparantly that is not good enough.

is cool
Grr Devonport. I don't like them and their incessant refurbs and being favourited by AO. It's because the SM is married to the HRS. Not that she really has a say in anything like that but still i can blame her for our shop looking like it's from 1971 and theirs all hip and spanky. (That's the store in bdude's photo).
The SSS was doing a SMARTS today. Everything was so tense. She kept asking me questions and then gave me 60 or so pages on Everyday Rewards troubleshooting to read and a mandate to train my night and weekend staff (no one has them down here). She's in tomoz with the AM. More tenseness. AND she made us put security tags on all our baskets. Not cool. Every time you collect them you set of all the alarms.
But the night ended with a group of hot Italian boys. I didn't even care that we'd closed like ten minutes ago.
