    I was under the impression that it was a requirement to give 3 hours notice if cutting a shift - if less they are required to pay you for the shift. That's the union ruling here in QLD, not sure about where you are. Pyro

    RTC used to be in the operators menu though, and they wouldnt completely change the privileges system just for RTC. Hence maybe when it was an operator thing, used to be a level 2 priv? Maybe was the same deal with Quantities?

    1. We don't even have the vest at our store 2. It is determined that supervisors are put on register 10 (Closest express register to the service desk) 3. If the supervisors don't have anything to do, or there are people to be served, then people get served, no questions asked. Good stuff!
