I dont know, we got informed by a bulltin, that was left in the department.
i think it depends on were abouts your store is located.

Yeah not a bad idea.
Does anyone know how long is it til (approximate) delivery?
I ordered mine on 2nd November and the status was listed as 'Back Order'. I emailed Total Image to check about this and she said that the stock was available but not being 'released' until 11th November and it would ship after that.

If you log into your account, near the bottom left is 'Order Status & History'. This gives your order status. Mine still says 'Warehouse' but the shipment date is - 6/11/2009 12:00:00 AM. Have no idea what is going on...

No, you can still wear your old shirts. For a while at least.
That's my understanding, anyway.

Hey, in my book TIO hasn't been a disaster yet - I placed an order with spotless in august, they 'lost' my order and i still havent got a refund for it...

just had my interview with the service deli manager at the local woolworths,
now to wait for the call or otherwise from the HR people...

what is the purpose of the second interview anywho?
they seemed to ask the same things that the group interview did...​

It's for your line manager to get a good idea of who you are, what sort of worker you'd be.

Yeah its fairly normal in most stores.

I thought this was normal?
Our store has one for SM, SSM, STMx2 and I think another for the duty manager... fairly sure it's 5 in total.


And we had this, until our old store manager got the shits about 'overuse'.
We have 6 of the portables, the 3 managers and 3 for departments including service.

Ok good news for those people who ordered their new shirts a while ago. Got an email from Total Image saying that there was a problem with the system and the dates displayed on the site are wrong. The orders were shipped on 13th November and should be in WA by the end of the week. :) :) finally - so relieved :D :D :D :D

Ha, speaking of spotless, ordered in august like you, delierved in 2 weeks, COMPLETELY FUCKED UP THE ORDER. Ordered a small s/s shirts. delivered a Large L/S shirts. and it wasnt my fault, cause i checked the invoice that came with it, and it comfired that i ordered a small s/s. i was so pissed off and my SSM didnt help me at all. Why cant woolies just do shirt ordering through the store it'd make shit easier.

Not looking forward to tomorrow, have to do all the department planning for the next 6 weeks. Rosters are going to be a pain to work out because we don't know what extra hours we'll be getting until like a week before lol

I also went on my first training course yesterday, went with my SM, which was good because we had like 2 hours in the car and I got to talk to him about a lot of shit. The course was crap but out of those 2 hours in the car, my SM said he'd put me through my forklift license, duty manager training + he'll put in for an application for a liquor license for me!

It was a VERY good day :p

What size did you order? Just wondering coz I'd think we'd be about the same size plus the total image size chart is whacked.
I got a 12 for each, based on the measurements they should be a bit too big but seems better than too small, lol.
