    Thank you to everyone who replied (in some way) to my questions. :D Really helped. :) When I worked Saturday I was put on express (with my fav supervisor) and about 15 minutes till I finished I really started running out of notes. I had a bunch of 50's and 20's (I usally run out of 20's) and...

    Hmm. Because when I start at 4.30pm (and that's when the night supervisor starts) I'll go down and like check the books and whatever, then the previous supervisor then reads the register number off the roster sheet. So I'm guessing that they did it - like what babikakez said "On late night...

    Just curious about who decides what people go on what registers eg. if they are on big registers or express. I asked a supervisor a while ago who actually did it and she said "well tonight I did it". Does that mean that sometimes it's pre-done before another supervisor comes and takes over?

    That is sad. I just don't like being pushy cause I have no authority whatsoever. Mm, I guess I'll speak to her when I'm working next, if she is there. And I looked up on WOW Careers if there are anything positions and there aren't, so I guess I can't say anything there. Thanks for your Help :)

    Ok thanks. And my god, you has it easier o.O Then again, I have a small store. I know this may sound a little... stupid.. but I'm not quite sure what to say to the SSM in regards to finding out about the transfer without sounding too pushy. If you know what I mean.

    I'm not quite sure who the HR officer is? If it helps, the person I've been dealing with so far is the SSM.

    It was the 29 Aug 2009 when I got my Transfer form - I handed it in that weekend and now it is November 1 and I haven't heard anything back? Should I go and ask someone in my store to see if they know anything about my transfer? or should I ask someone at the store I want to transfer to? Oh and...

    Recieved an oh so great call from a supervisor tonight. Apparently he recieved a memo from head office, so they had to cut down on hours. So that means my shift tomorrow is getting cut. -.-

    Thanks for the clear up. This was at your store too, lol. Oh and to the other people that answered my question, sorry, I should've made myself more clear. I was in normal clothes, but at a Woolworths I don't work at. So they wouldn't even know I worked for Woolworths. EDIT: Just got...

    Why can't we exit the store through self serve? Worker: I'm sorry ma'am, but you can't go through here. You need to go through express. Me: Oh, ok. >.< (A lot of people were looking at me) Also, I clearly had no items on me if that helps.

    I am wondering how I would go about finding about whether or not my transfer to a different store (Woolworths to Big W) has gone through or not? I was told to not worry about hearing anything for two weeks and it was two weeks the Sunday just gone. Should I speak to my Store Manager or SSM (I...

    Rules for Customers

    Please, please unpack your baskets when your at a big register and an express register. It's rude and I will unpack EVERYTHING before I start scanning a single item (yes, that includes baskets where you have managed to stuff 50 items into it). Suprisingly, when I start to unpack some baskets...

    Sorry, I thought I made it clear when I said "checkout supervisors", so I'm on checkouts. What's CSM? Is that the same as the 2IC? Uhh, I really hate my 2IC. Damn, I don't like the store manager either - he scares me and is always busy. I don't think I'd get time to get him to sign it.
