[whatashotbyseve]

You might get in that wanky newsletter we get then lol.

Fuck Luscombe loves a photo op. Must be a tough job if he just goes to every refurb opening.

Hah, I remember going for my RSA training at Bella Vista, and because it was a Wednesday it was the Office Comms meeting (Every single Woolworths employee in the building must assemble around the main area for like.. a School Assembly type BS) so I was standing around near the stage part, and looked up at the smartass lookin guy next to me an thought "Who's this douche?!"

Luckily I didn't say it out loud

 

[meow-says-kitty]

I'm so glad Ludscombe hasn't come to our store, at least not while I've been there. Everyone freaks out enough when just the area manager walks in let alone Michael fucking Ludscombe.

 

[greekgun]

Whos Ludscombe? im guessing his like some really high up worker?

 

[whatashotbyseve]

Lol you could say there is noone higher....

 

[Peartie]

hes the CEO

 

[townie]

he was sposed to come into out store cause we had 5years with no LTI's, but he never did

 

[greekgun]

Haha so the mangers must b on ur ass's about cleaning up the store and wat not. Im no one of importance has ever come down to my coles.

 

[meow-says-kitty]

Whats an LTI townie?

 

[bdude]

Long Term Injuries?

 

[mitch179]

Whats an LTI townie?

Lost Time Injuries.

5 years is a long time without any LTI's.
Good work to Townie's store!

 

[whatashotbyseve]

Yes. Yes it is.

Our replacement duty manager (NFI what she does the other 6 days/fortnight) has been away for over a year now with back troubles from work. She reckons she won't be back until April at the absolute earliest and probably later.

Thats probably why Luscombe doesn't visit our store too often lol.

 

[klyie minogue]

hey everyone im looking at getting a transfer to a woolworths store in melbourne somewhere in and around mentone im wondering what theses stores are like to work at? has anyone worked there? im doing night fill at the moment..

 

[nmj]

Hey, Im new to these forums.

Just wondering whats the pay rate for a weekend duty manager with Safeway? Say working Fri-Sun or Sat-Mon.

Also the standard payrate for a senior fulltimer?

 

[H.P]

check the SDA site of your own state for the payrates

 

[townie]

not sure about vic, but in NSW a duty manager is on grade 4 which is $19 and a bit per hr

also Bored of Studies - Fresh Food People

If i was him i'd make surprise visits just to scare the shit out of everyone there. It'd be paper bags all round.

 

[milocole]

Working two jobs, some people say this isn't allowed. Is BigW(Recovery)/Coles(Dairy) allowed?????

 

[whatashotbyseve]

I doubt it because they are two rival companies - Big W is part of Woolworths, Coles is part of Coles.

However, if you can somehow not let the other know i guess it is technically possible?
