Woolworths is shit coz they dnt even no how to put things in bags propaly
Because all staff members, and individual woolworths stores do the same things right ?

i'm all for choice, but that seems a stupid reason to not shop somewhere, but what should i expect from someone who spells properly 'propaly'

If you're full time or permanent part time, you will get paid. IF you have stocked up enough sick leave hours.

It should say at the bottom of your payslip how many hours you have.

I'm assuming 'assenye' is meant to be awesome. Also I don't think supermarkets can be franchises.

5) I have to COUNT ALL THE CIGS AS I'M PUTTING THEM AWAY, which means i'll have to start early and deal with customers abusing me because i cant give them cigarettes because i've already counted them!
I hate stocktake. Even if we're counting carton's while the store's still open, starting with obscure items and putting one of everything aside before we start, they still come and ask for a carton of Camel Blue. Seriously, I have not sold anything in Camel for over a year. Dont ask now!

Firstly, I have to note that my STM today was extremely sympathetic and helpful when I called her this morning letting her know about a recently occurring shoulder injury. She was so good, she cancelled my checkouts shift (even though they were already 7 down for the day - i don't think she knew that but anyway) and then when it became apparent that I couldn't do tickets later on in the afternoon she moved the smokeshop operator to liqour, put someone from liquor into tickets, and put me in smokeshop. Not that it was that helpful for my shoulder in the end, but it was appreciated greatly.

She can be the biggest bitch in the world sometimes, but today she proved that she is human and I really appreciated it.

They don't take that long, mine was delivered within about a week.

i had a mate who worked at safeways and when he asked for the weekend off because he was turning 18, they said no and told him to not celebrate his birthday. He quit after they said that but sometimes supermarket higher ups can be heartless dick heads.

Anyway have a happy 21st
