Also we will get full adult rates on our 20th birthday. It is currently 21.

Trust me, the last thing I would want to do is tell other people about this. It would be embarrassing for both of us if anyone else in our store found this. :p

Probably because our department has such bad scanning policies. :(

I originally had to come in at 6am, but it eventually got pushed back to 8am so I could stay after the store closes. When the store doesn't open on a Sunday on Saturday night I get the tickets off and the new ones on. Then sort out all the displays and get enough products for next weeks...

Shift tomorrow 8am-7pm in Bakery. :)

It is funny. :) I feel so bad, like I have been reading someone elses diary for a few months. But it was worth it, weird that out of all the places on the internet I found you here. I will talk to you tomorrow.

Or when you say what store your actually from, your online posting name happens to match your surname. But it was the store Christmas party that you posted about which initially got me interested in finding out who you were. I found the forum after doing a google search about something...

That was including prop bake. When I walked in instore and proprietary had looked like it had been hit by a bomb and that was after a freezer fill earlier in the day. But those freak days generally don't happen that often.

I think ours makes $16000 a week profit if I can recall when my manager told me. We have our weird days though, on the day before Australia day we made $8000.

Its so annoying people wanting markdowns. One store I worked in the store manager was really consistent with his policy of never reducing anything on customers request and supporting it to the extreme. Like when I reduce everything in bakery at the end of the day never letting customers push...

There is a manual on refunds on storenet. Don't know if you have ever been on it but find any computer workstation, jump on it and click the icon storenet on the desktop. Then double click supermarkets, then the easiest thing to do is a document search. Up the top there's a search button, click...

I suppose it's down to how you bring the issue up. When it happened to me and I claimed it there was nothing bad that happened, no shift cuts or anything. Just an apology and my dept manager blamed STM and it only happened because of some one off late night trade and early morning start. Does...

It means you get double rates on top of your double time and a half which is like 520% of your pay rate. Whatever you do don't say a thing until the next day, if you say anything on the day they might send you home early cause you cost so much. Your there to make money not to do little...

Well that is the idea of the gun numbers, so things can be easily traced back to whoever did something. I have been trying to get my own for about a year now, me and my department manager just share numbers which is a little annoying at times when we are on separate guns. So I just log him out...

Are you a member of the SDA union? If so contact them and they will be able to give you some advice and help you along the way. Seriously the woolworths workers comp insurers will try and screw you over and make out it was pre-existing or somehow your fault so they don't pay up. Also the union...

Talking about misconduct, I found out today from my dept manager we are not suppose to reveal upcoming specials. Also found out that if you go into coles in your woolies uniform they ask you what your doing, happened to one of my bosses. Then got into an interesting discussion about insider...

Not an expert on this issue but... It will probably be next year sometime. I saw a notice on the wall saying we will receive an interim pay rise on the 04/01/2010 from some head of supermarket person working at head office. When the final pay rise is negotiated we will receive backpay from this...

Anyone else having trouble with getting these new shirts? I am order number in the 5000's and I paid by direct deposit immediately after I placed the order on saturday last week. Status message is still saying pending. I sent them an email with the direct deposit receipt hoping that it might...

You should be paid an overtime rate for the hours that took you over 38 on Sunday. You should also get time and a half (for Sunday trade) and your casual 20% loading on top of that overtime rate. If you weren't paid then you need to chase the people up in cash office and they will put it in...
