Re: Woolworths FAQ- how to get a job

My woolworths must have been so desperate for workers.

I applied on a public holiday (Queens Birthday or something) and got a call asking for an interview within 2 hours.

wow, I thought getting an email for an interview a day later was impressive. you got a phone call. i'm impressed.

There's a cut out on the breast pocket...i guess that's where it's meant to go.

(I got mine today. Not as bad as I imagined but still pretty bad ><! It's also about a size or two too big. AND ITS LONG SLEEVE. I *must* get a short sleeve or I will die)

 

[babikakez]

I haven't ordered mine yet, however since I'm starting at 7.30 next Saturday I'm assuming we'll get them then. My store has slowly been giving them out to a few staff every day, but I have a feeling that there will be a few staff left in white at my store.

Wtf is up with guys getting a short sleeve option, but girls having to wear 3/4 sleeves. So not fair.

Got mine uniform shirt today. Ughghgh, what were they thinking?
Seems so pointless but what can you do? At least I dont have to wear it out.

Can u kind of fold it up so it's at the elbow at least?

I haven't picked mine up yet.

The thing with long sleeve is that the cuffs get caught in the bag hooks. Very annoying.

I'm so rolling them up, I don't care what they say.

 

[vulgarfraction]

You can fold it up at the elbow.

I picked mine up yesterday. They said it was the last day but there was still a huge pile.

Guys... what's with the colour? (Steve Irwin much?)

Is this what I get for bagging out Coles shirts? =(

 

[Martyno1]

I swear, our uniforms are so bad. They didn't have any short sleeve so I had to get a long sleeve one and I dunno if I'm meant to wear a tie or not.
I'm quitting soon.

I picked mine up on monday, and I guess its not as bad as I thought it would be.

I tried rolling it up at the elbow, but because there's no buttons or anything to hold it up, they keep on falling down. But I suppose it'll all be allright.

I dunno if I'm meant to wear a tie or not.

One of the so called "perks" of these new uniforms is that we don't have to wear scarfs or ties with them. I'm undecided on whether or not its a perk or not.

 

[townie]

i've actually really quickly come round to the new uniforms, they do somehow look better

 

[thejosiekiller]

[townie]

[thejosiekiller]

1160 > all

i havnt worn it yet, its still in the plastic wrapping... im wearing it sunday though

 

[vulgarfraction]

I'm lost... what's 1160?

 

[thejosiekiller]

1160 is the store number for gordon

 

[townie]

and 1360 is Boronia Park (Metro)

 

[rockets]

I think they look OK but the female one's are a bit short and can see myself getting into trouble for exposing bare skin!!!

 

[M-turkey]

we've had the new shirts come through in our store (tuggeranong). I reakon they look alright.
At least they're better than my night-fill shirt, horrible maroon...

 

[vulgarfraction]

1160 is the store number for gordon

I haven't remembered the numbers since induction though.
