    Don't misinterpret my post and try building a straw man and saying I'm reading too much into it. You were saying a completely different thing in your post. Try reading it again. If you re-read my post over and over again I am not really talking about managing skills. So maybe its you going...

    Really... I do think there's more to it than 'experience'. >experience on how to properly influence staff to do your bidding while upper management take notice. >most woolies managers are not well adept at doing this ^ and some have managing styles that are downright repulsive. >most...

    Need to lose 20kg :( HELP!

    so you just wanna lose 20 kg. No diets are really necessary unless you want 'health'.Just eat less of what you normally would eat. Although caloric restriction proves to be just as beneficial to health. For your height/weight I think your daily caloric intake would be around 1300-1400 kcal...

    Gain Weight and Muscle

    you have to compute your bmr and your caloric expenditure in physical activity (there's lots on the web for free). The basic guideline is a 500 kcal caloric excess combined with your daily energy intake. Anything more and you'll put on fat. Protein should be in the upper limit of 1gram per...

    ok. is there a certain time cycle to how long they stay in a particular store? I've seen some managers stay for long periods in my old store while some leave really quick. In my newly opened store one department has already gone through 3 managers in 2 months, why did this happen? (previous...

    The Woolworths Thread

    Townie, have some more questions: are managers moved around different stores involuntarily (meaning thy cant refuse a move,if it happens)? Why are some managers tried for different positions? One of our previous managers has gone from managing the deli, bakery, perishables and grocery in...

    The Woolworths Thread

    Townie, couple of questions: when extra hours are available who's usually called up first the 18 year old casual or the over 21 permanent part time? On Sundays? I think the wages are equal for both or am I mistaken. (In terms of work ethic said 18 year old is a bludger) When grocery managers...

    I wanna rant about the place where I work (I'm also thinking of transferring for more hours). I do not understand why woolies keeps this certain employee at my workplace. He is really difficult to work with. Very ego driven, self centered and loves to put others down while inflating himself...

    the attractiveness scale 1-10, your thoughts?

    Its true then-women are blind. Majority of guys on there pushing 9's are 5 or below. Doesn't this happen often in reality as well? you see women and men cooing at some guy/gal only to find out he's a fug and she's a butterface.

    the attractiveness scale 1-10, your thoughts?

    I can and do put together good arguments. I attacked him because he attacked first....Mofo Because I want to, and feel that attractiveness does have a lot to do with how we perceive and treat people. If you have better things to do, like saving the world, then don't post on this thread.

    the attractiveness scale 1-10, your thoughts?

    I was getting at two things mofo: 1st people shouldn't be rating 7 or 8 when in actuality its really an average of 5. 2nd when people jump above the average in looks (thats past 5 or a 6 or if averaged higher a 7 or 8) it becomes subjective because the external enhancements I mentioned come into...
