As someone else has aid, 5pm is early. I don't finish TAFE until 9pm on a Thursday, 7.30pm on a Monday. Granted I don't start until 2.30 and 1.30pm respectively but my friend who goes to uni is there from 8.30am till 7pm on a Wednesday (with an hour or two break) By the time I finish TAFE I'm...

Pretty sure bdude is from Tasmania - I think Tasmania has Easter Tuesday rather then Easter Saturday.

I'm all for badges but no way would I want to wear bunny ears!

Oh my, hope that doesn't happen at my store. I've noticed some people have Happy Easter badges but not everyone has them.

Our staff room is nice. Several tables joined to make one big one. It would seat at least 12 people comfortably and probably a couple more. We have a decent sized TV - not sure whether its LCD or Plasma but a modern one. Has a DVD player connected to it but never seen it used - we have a...

Go to work, tell them, work an hour, go home sick :)

I called them at 8.30 this morning - 5hrs before my rostered shift.

As I said, I could definitely understand if I was asking for payment (sick leave as a ppt) or it was more then 1 consecutive shift, or I was a repeat offender. Just took me aback a bit because usually its just 'oh thanks for letting us know, get better soon' - which is what the supervisor said...

We have a chain that goes across - we still put trolleys in them, particularly of a night.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that thinks this. Mum was all like 'Sorry but our casuals at work have to have a doctors certificate'. Bit different though - she works at a bowling club with a staff of like 10 people - compared to the 77 people just on Service at Coles. I would understand if it...

unfortunately it currently looks like I'm a repeat offender cos I've been sick once a month this entire year. but I'm usually very reliable and suervisors at work know that. "call Jess she'll work" etc but we have new ssm and CSM. they seem much stricter. ssm didn't say I need a cert for this...

what is the process at woolies for casuals calling in sick? I called in sick at work this morning cos I have a pulled muscle in my stomach. my supervisor was fine about it but said I had to talk to a manager which in this case was the SSM I think. he asked if I was casual, asked what I was...

I think one of my Coles Group applications is still 'Under Consideration' and that's from 2004...

We have little laminated signs on every register with about 5-6 suggestions on how we can word the alternative bag question. Nearly all of them have been destroyed LOL

How do you do 6am- 3pm on a Monday with school? Or is it like a public holiday or something where you are? I would die with that many hours with studying... how do you cope!

Self Serve isn't finished yet - there was just construction walls up with 'Work Zone' signs. The techies were in this afternoon to set up the self serve registers/area. Apparently they didn't finish construction on time. 2IC arrived at 4am to restock cigarettes as they had to be put out the...

We usually have 2-4 express open depending on the time of night + register 5 is ALWAYS open (only closes for like spot checks) so we instantly lost 5 registers at 7.30pm. We then eventually lost the cigarette register. And Reg 7 scales were broken and humming so there goes another main register...

hmm didn't notice any fishy smell but yeah it looked nice. Ironically our service desk did get ripped out last night and the managers have been telling all the boys to tuck their shirts in all the time as well - not the females though. --- so last night's shift was awesome. construction (well...

Ham and Cheese on lavish bread - toasted A chocolate biscuit 2 Salada's with butter 2 cans of coke approx 375ml of water.

Yea it definitely looks weird how the baby and heath and beauty aisles are presented differently to the rest of the store. Our baby aisle has like nappies, baby food, bottles and clothing as well as medicinial products (panadol etc) and some beauty stuff. Heath and Beauty has all the shampoo...
