There's no formal training for smokeshop, its just that my store has always had the covers so we have a laminated layout in the drawer of where things are. This allows newbies to learn where everything is and stuff.
A lot of people only want one transaction due to bank fees, etc. But I think its pretty stupid, I mean its not as though you can do saved transactions for liquor. I think its about time they stopped doing them personally.
does anyone know if there is a user manual/guide for the NCR FastLane self serve checkouts (the ones woolies has installed) available on the internet. i have been looking for a long time but have only been able one for find a similar system by IBM.

It all counts
It doesn't sound legal, no. Others in this thread will have more expertise in this matter than me though. The SDA is an option i assume if you are in the union if you feel passionately about the issue.

yes you are suppose to do various state training for smoke shop in NSW this is known as cigarette compliance training witch consist on reading a pamphlet watching a film and signing various pieces paper for store and government level in case of work cover inspection. I was in Vic last week and there are Gov department that hires under age people and tells them to try and buy from various stores this happened to me but luckily I passed

I don't think hes a area manager, just really doesn't know how to construct a proper sentence so it makes sense.
You should have a folder, in it ours has all the info plus sheets for writing up left behind change and stuff.

lol
Does anyone else have problems with registers over heating?
They always either go slow, than really slow and than just stop working!! so annoying. It only happens on express coz thats where the doors are and we're closest to the centres front doors so all the hot air blows in! And our Air cond is broken!
There are only 2 that dont go slow because there was trouble with them before and they got fixed and never over heat. Get this, they came to fix it on christmas eve! My service manager was like 'OF ALL THE DAYS YOU CHOSE CHRISTMAS FUCKIN EVE' lol he actually said that.

YES! We have had the exact same problem. We've had the same issue with two of our express registers and one of the smokeshop ones.
The express lane I was using on xmas eve overheated about 4 hours before my shift finished - every other register was being used so I did pretty much nothing.

Ours always overheat and fuck up. Especially self serve. Our air conditioning is also always broken and our SM is getting so sick of calling someone in at least once a week that we're just gonna re-do the whole system.

Absolutely , but look at the setup there is no ventilation in the housing for the computers so all the hot air they produce stays there, ours get to the point were you have to turn them off and let them cool down before the even work properly again

Thats what we have to do with ours.
