Apparently not. Not the only store doing it either, I know of three that are at the very least.

Working Monday-Thursday straight. Will be a very fun 11 days. Not entirely happy we're opening Good Friday to be honest.

How bullshit was that. SM got a call from the Area Manager just as myself and the ASM were walking out the door. An hour later and we'd finally purged the store of everything price cut related. Not happy. All tickets need to be reprinted and hung by 5pm EST today, on special 9up tickets...

Anyone here not work on frontend? If so, which department(s), and how is your Xmas prep all going? Bit scary that it's now <4 weeks away. Creeps up!

Hah I went to that show and tell, store looked good :)

We have three mobiles at our store (SM, ASM, and me), and I'm fairly certain we can't do this. Our refit was 2 years ago though so maybe newer models can. Dunno. Will try on Monday.

The iPhone app is brilliant. I was pretty skeptical when I heard about it and had the training come through, but it actually works really well. A couple of other quirky initiatives that you may not have seen in your store yet are being rolled out. There will now be a big black stand at the...

$3 Sorbent 8pk next week is going to go bananas. 500ml sauce the week after next at $0.99 save $1.50 also will be huge. Good way to see out the end of financial year...

Salaried department managers are rostered for 40 hours per week, with most being required to do a 48 hour six-day week, which is then followed by a 32 hour four-day week (ie. work Mon-Sat, have the next Monday off, so two days off consecutively). Salary depends on size of store, how long...

Watch out for grocery 2ic's, they're notoriously charming ;)

If you're gone for less than three months they should be able to make you casual and then change you back to PT when you get back, no?

Queens birthday holiday. She's your queen as well! :)

You beat me! :) 2pm yesterday - 6am today.
