Well until yesterday I was a Safeway employee, getting 5% off at all Woolworths limited companies, ie booze at Dan Murphy's, Slavers, Big W etc. I haven't given my discount card back however :p

In my current job I get 25% off the wholesale price of really expensive makeup, free makeup occasionally, my own computer and a masseuse who comes in once a week :D
I thought Woolworths employees couldn't use their discount card at Dan Murhpy's? Apparently their prices are too cheap or something, but what exactly is Big W then?

at my old job we'd get lunch, we had a cafe part so we just made whatever we wanted.
and if we were ever hungry with not much to do, and the boss wasn't around, we'd cook up some hot chips
leftover ice cream cake was a regular as well...mmmm...soo good
..and lollies

but the lunch was the only thing that was meant to be free...


but then....i did have to clean out a ball pit when a kid peed himself, and my boss made me take off my shoes coz shoes werent allowed in the play area....so i deserved all the free food for all the pee i stepped in

5% discount at Target, Coles etc. When we have damaged confectionery e.g. been opened or tampered with by a customer, we put the remaining choccies in the tea room and pig out on our breaks. :) It happened heaps around Christmas, which was good when we were pulling really long hours.

My boss frequently pays for lunch etc. for me at my finance job.

they cant

because they charge just above cost

Big W charges a fair bit above cost still

I get 25% off all stock at my job...which ive taken advantage of a whole one time...

Free Lunch Fridays, upgrades on Qantas flights (if I call the right people), and Christmas bonuses!

Not to mention the really good pay for the job I do

Sure beats my old 5% discount @ Woolies

I get to take home $10 of free stuff home after every shift, and pretty much I can take as much as I want if I'm closing.

No casuals get it too!
Sorry I meant to say, the discounts come out of the $1000 credit.
Either way, you still get $1000 off.
