Do staff discount cards stay in reception until collection (or if the staff member leaves) or do unclaimed cards get destroyed after a certain period? Essentially I'm on Annual Leave and I've got a self imposed exile going untill I return on February 1 and I do not want to go near work unless...

Yes. Did you see my first post?

I lived on campus despite being a 10-15 drive from home. It was pretty basic. Communal shower, kitchen and laundary. Advantage was that I was only paying $155.75 a week plus roughly $15 in food, so it wasn't that bad financially. It was nice moving out of the parents for a while and only because...

Speaking of which, we've been informed that Supervisors must be present whenever there is a Gift Card in the transaction.But they do nothing apart from some writing (Which I didn't find out what they were doing). Is it because too many Gift Card transactions have been coming up as fraudulent and...

I think it's fair to say that during Easter and Christmas Eve, there are only two types of customers: Those who haven't got their shit together and those who panic that just for 24 hours, they can't shop or gamble. Seeing how people run through the gates at 4 in the morning for the sake of...

Never had a relationship. To me, it frustrates me that a guy like me has the qualities that my parents drilled into me (Good hygene, stuff to talk about aside work etc.) yet no girl wants me. For some reason, a dropkick bogan who pronounces Penrith as Penwith and can come out of the blue, touch...

Hey was there a minor tweak to the 2010 format? I noticed the signage has gone from a brown to blue and it was noticable in two stores in Darwin that have it. Or is it my suspicion that the signs age that way?

I'm now on Annual Leave until February 1, which by that time I would have made my move to the southern states. I can speak from three years of experience that until I return, everyone associated at my store can go fornicate themselves with an iron stick. (Yeah I appropiated that quote)

I did it straight away in semester 1 and luckily, I got in before they overhauled it and stretched it into a year subject. TEP is a lot better than repeating year 12 because IMO HSC entry marks are irrelevant when you get in. Admittedly I haven't got another job yet however I'm confident year 12...

I was doing a bit of perishables work today and before I got an express alert, the fridge was filled with Bulla Thickened Cream. When I returned 15 minutes later, there wasn't any left. Also at times I felt like I was playing cricket because of the number times I had to run from on side of the...

Well, what I'm about to tell you is based off my own experiences at Charles Darwin Univeristy and you should ask Notre Dame for clarifications. The TEP course is where you spend one semester doing a course designed to simulate university study. It's better than repeating year 12 and at my...

I always point out to customers the $500 limit if they ask and if they are insistent on taking it out, I bump them up to the service desk unless I'm certain I've got the $500 plus a couple of hundred for backup. If anything, I keep getting boneheads giving me $50 notes, which drains the other notes.

What do people know about personalised barcodes for Self Serve Attendants? I heard that it was to replace the print outs once, but never heard about it again.

Rule 17 is a newish one. The NCR software used to let you insert without clicking pay now, though it has been over a month now and people should have taken note of it. May have said this before, though to me, it appears that Self Serves always attract DUTCH people; that is people who Don't...

Missing the two weeks first two weeks mean you'll be catching up as well as staying ahead. Because it's two weeks, it's nothing bad as long as you have good time management skills.

I'm jealous of you guys getting monster hours at work. I've been on them about extra hours, but we've gone absolutely anal about hours.

On what grounds can managers refuse an interstate store transfer? I applied to 5 universities across 3 states (2 in Queensland, 1 in New South Wales and 2 in Melbourne), the odds are in my favour for a successful application are rather good. But knowing what a dick my store manager is and how...

I wanted to tell this customer to piss off on Friday. She asked if I could demonstrate how to use Self Serves (fine) but as soon I was about to leave, she expected me to do it all. Only because my weakness is that I'm too nice to people did I do it. Moral of the story? SELF SERVES IS WHERE YOU...

Self Serve Attendants should be issued with mobile phone hooked to the PA system. May have mentioned it earlier however the frontend department goes Service Desk > 10 Big Registers > 2 Express Lanes > 6 Self Serves. For me to do a price check, I must leg it to Register 10, completely deserting...

A week after my exam, I got accused by my CSM once of deliberately sabotaging my uni performance to get out of work. She stopped from finishing the sentance, but I knew what she was going to say. I stood my ground saying that while it was outside the usual two week notice (I gave them just under...
