Smokes can be served by minors in NSW. I recently just signed off on the tobacco training update thingo that comes around every so often and it stated. "Tobacco, where practical should be served by people aged 18yrs+" or words to that effect.

I'm old school don't judge. she was there within 30 seconds

I called an Express Alert to liquor the other day when it was just me in there and it got crazy busy. I had the store manager serving next to me for a good 5-10mins. I was looking up all the beer for her and she'd just handle the stuff with barcodes and the payment.

The Nightfill Shift Captain at my old store had a toy gun pulled on her once. Myself and a fellow liquor attendant have also been shoved and had the gift bag display as well as the nuts for sale at the front of the store thrown at us.

Smoking effects your health and the states deal with health. Thats why its a state law and hence varies around the country. The states also control the alcohol laws which is why its different nationally as well

If for some reason the RF gun isn't working then the best way to deal with the smokes is to print the load sheet for the order (specifying the smokes segment number (80X) so you don't get the entire ambient load). You can then just tick everything off manually and when you are finished if you...

I work at two stores and each store does it differently. At one they bag it all up (including self serve acceptors) and carry it up whereas the other store (which doesn't have self serve) just sends it up in the capsules. I think it boils down to how reliable your capsule system is and how much...

I don't think it should be an issue because its Target and Safeway instead of Coles and Safeway. It should all detailed in the "Code of Conduct" for the companies. You'll get the woolworths one in training and you should already have access to the Target one. The important thing if you get the...

When self-serve was first introduced at Big W discount cards were required to be authorised by the attendant. I always thought it funny this feature went away since without it you're right iMathew there is no way cards are actually checked at self-serve, which seems to contradict what happens...

I agree with the more than two SDCs per household as well as replacing lost/stolen/damaged cards more often. It should be a quicker process to repalce a damaged card or a reported stolen/lost card. For example if an employee reports their card as stolen (say give them a week to report it...

I always joked and said the day I quit woolworths would be the day i was referred to as a "team member/player" lol. I personally don't like the terms team leader/manager and don't see the point of them. everyone (staff and customers) can understand that a store has a manager, that manager has...

A "quick" search on StoreNET should give you the answer and a SOP to go with it. If the customer is already registered and looks like they can handle a computer then I tell them to go to the website and sort it out. If it was someone coming up to me and saying they were confused then i'd direct...

in store management changes related news i found out that its not going to effect me because i work in the liquor department and at my store its only grocery and perishables departments that will merge. my store is quite large and i imagine that this will also be the case for simillar sized or...

Also adding to this list of things happening the uniform changeover from the older style caps and aprons to the new style should basically be complete. Key thing to note is that Woolworths now actually owns the aprons and berets and now just pays Ensign/spotless for laundering services. This is...

With the management structure Phase 1 i've heard is basically Grocery/Perishables and Liquor merging and combining. Phase 2 is said to be some of the fresh foods combining (eg: meat and deli, i think produce would stay seperate) and Phase 3 is something related to checkouts. Phase 1 is said to...

we have homeshop in my little "sub-area" store group back home although it doesn't get picked at my store. i'd be interested to know more about the picking process. -britto

well. this was unexpected. never thought i'd get another email from BOS saying that something was posted on the forum. who is the moderator for this thread now? i think townie is well and truely gone :(

http://www.fwa.gov.au/documents/agreements/fwa/AE877944.pdf is a link to the EBA stored on the Fair Work Australia website (government body). I agree, CMS people always seem a bit blunt, the IT people are much better. But then again CMS do an important job so i suppose its good they are...

I had to laugh one day when I'd made a packet cake for morning tea (well whatever you call the nightfill break at 3am). I offered the bakery manager some saying I'd made it. I then asked if that meant I could work in the Woolworths bakery since I had mastered a packet cake.

Re: Woolworths FAQ- how to get a job Storenet (or something similar) is already available via the internet for those authorised and who need it to perform their jobs. To my knowledge nobody at the store level is granted remote access to internal applications like HOST, emails, corecomms, etc...
