    ITT: FML I hate uni.

    My eyeballs feel like they are going to fall out of my head, hopefully not before the end of the week.

    Its not in the current WA one, because ALL but one of our FT service staff need to have new rosters written coz of it.

    haha, the whole word count spam doesn't even work anyway. Its not like I do any more work :p And considering we (only) did 26k on smokes on Thursday (and we had NOTHING left), I also think that 18k in one trans is a bit ridiculous. That conversation with your STM sounds at least mildly...

    Haha, we have quite the Perth crew happening here. You're in Psych yeah? Does your store start with an M? Perhaps an S? I actually can't remember where you are, but I know you've said :) My essay is fucked, going for a nap I think.

    2000 words due monday 4pm for Australian Foreign Policy - looking at Australia as a middle power. 3000 words due Friday 12pm for Management. Theoretically, its a group assignment, but I've pretty much found myself doing the whole thing due to my shit group. About why people in a fictional...

    ITT: FML I hate uni.

    I hate people in group assignments who don't come to class, but then expect you to be able to drop everything and reply to all of their emails in a nanosecond, and meet them when its convenient for them. There are a choice of about 30 tute times for this class, picking one to suit you is NOT HARD.

    REALLY? We have one guy who works 10-2 Mon/Wed/Fri, then another older casual who picks up shifts wherever and whenever (also does Homeshop), and a uni student aged guy who works during the week and weekends (also does Perishables, but I'm fairly sure Grocery want him). Then about four...

    It is an entry level job, its not as if you will be there for life. Besides, if you don't like what you are doing, quit. Its not hard. example. Dear x The job sucks and I never want to come back. Hence my resignation. From, me.

    Like I said, a few Sundays ago, my express lanes, smokeshop, and all but one main were all males. I mean thats certainly not always the case, but you aren't going to stick out like a sore thumb. Also, I really don't want to portray my CSM as being lazy etc. Her people skills might suck, but...

    We picked our groups, but like in the second tute. Noone knew each other at all, it was more a case of work with whoever you're sitting with.

    Our LLM bought every single packet of Longbeach Blue left at close. She'd already bought her 6 cartons from three different stores on her way to work. (Someone had never been so grateful to a) be starting at 12.30, and b) have a Perishables manager that loves her enough to inform her of the...

    In addition to 8.30-7 on Tues and 8.30-6.30 Wed. They normally rotate between a 6/4 roster. So she's done 6/5 this fortnight. I agree that being a salaried manager it is to be expected though. It was only a month or two ago that we got about 8-10 newbies, and we're already talking about...

    I am currently: 83/2000 due Monday, 1500ish/3000 due Friday (but thats my group assignment and a lot of it will need to be rewritten). Went out last night, going out tonight, I thought I'd have thursday night to finish it off by my work as assholes and are making me work thursday night (being...

    I'm sure you did fine :) I understand what you mean about cash office staff though, we have one girl (coincidentally the one who is somewhat supervision trained) who is AMAZING. If she calls for change orders, its done. If she calls for pickups, they're done straight away, with a phone...

    Gift cards: Do a giftcard enquiry, make sure it has value on it, then go into Storenet, Wish Gift Cards, Gift Card Management, type in the card number, report it as damaged, then grab another gift card, type the NEW card number in. That should transfer the balance, then give the customer the...

    I'm allright with epay, just my solution is to tell idiot customers who ask for the wrong item is that we won't refund if it has left the store. I also get confused re opening times, especially when there's daylight savings/if its a long weekend etc. I know that sounds retarded, but I was...

    OMG cannot believe this slipped my mind. My store has confirmed they will be rewriting all pt rosters who currently have four hour shifts. ASAP. Apaz my 5.30-9.30 thursday is becoming 5.45-9.30 :S I'm not happy. Tea breaks for four hours though from next week.

    Just my thoughts as I'm reading... With module 3, you're talking about reports print off. Are they going to have access to Service Manager menu, or (like my store) do your supervisors ALWAYS know the CSM's password? Just wondering, whats so different about Mon/Wed opens? I have no idea...

    Yes, I know where you are ;) Exactly where you are. OMG YES. There is a reason why one of our PT supervisors is amazingly better than me, the other cas sup and our 3IC. I used to think that it was just because she was trained first and had been supervising longer, but now I really think it...

    Six cartons is the limit on our licence. But like I said, bogan area. We weren't arguing. I'm presuming you're in the western suburbs, haha? It was only yesterday that my CSM and I were talking about the day that a woman hit me over a packet of smokes. Some of the bogans are a bit violent...
