    Yeah we only got them just over a month ago and the first 2 weeks were a bit fucked because honestly, we all got training in how to use the actual machine but NOTHING on the routines or anything related to the office side of things (our SSS is a fuckhead and has still failed to assist in phoenix...

    You aren't supposed to leave through self-serve because it's pretty much if there is 5 customers in there the attendant doesn't have time or the eyes to check people's bags, so we just make it a rule that no one is to enter or exit that area unless they are using the self-serve machines. There...

    That is why I edit change orders now, lol. How is my form today.... I couldn't be bothered opening a $1 coin bulk for 1 roll, so I just edited it out, lol! And on weekdays we do our morning change (they order it when they put the tills in) and if anyone orders change at lunch time we will do an...

    That roster is shit. But actually, wish I could work more than 38 hours in a week... I get 38 hours and that's with 3 days working 3 hours (my roster is really fucked at the moment, like working 10 days in a row with 1 day off etc). Most of the older supervisors order WAY too much change...

I booked off holidays in November, but need the weekend off before and thought it would be cool but the other cashier that normally works weekends quit last month and the other two cashiers have holidays booked off that week so it's just me and the office manager...

    true, but i figure there are enough stores calling that I don't need to bother with that, unless something really unusual happens. has anyone got the "WinPos32.exe has occured an error and needs to close... Do you want to send an error report to Microsoft?" message, lol. one of our SCOs kept...

    The SCOs don't seem that bad. Things freeze sometimes, but you get that with normal POS too... the only thing that is stupid about that is the "must call IT everytime" rule which honestly is a waste of time because usually all they will do is a reboot of the POS/SCO which can easily be done by...

    Haha, well if they don't send a pickup I then send a more individual message (if I'm a bit bored) "*name* can you please send a pickup now thanks :)" :P But I usually go down and go along and do it myself because they always leave way too much money in the draws.

    I always hit send about 5 times so they get the idea, because so many people just hit clear without even taking notice :P We used to have an aircom system, but now have a lamson system since the refurb.. we used to whinge about how shit the old one was.. this one has been broken about 50% of...

    Haha, "view larger image" is actually a smaller picture :P I wonder if they will update the CSM vest. I wasn't very impressed with earlier images I saw of the new uniform, but it's growing on me now... wonder how far away they are... Ok, at our store we've always said Service 100 for security...

    As far as I can tell since chip card functionality there is no S or K's anymore... and we still do manual card enters for bush orders at my store, rarely but it happens.

    Make sure you tell them you have no training because if your store cares about it they'll know you're not meant to work in there without at least basic Fresh Food training (fresh food practices, hygienic, no-brainer stuff). But otherwise, they might desperate enough that they won't care. I used...

    Yeah, I'll try :P our smokeshop lady was really hoping the smokeshop would be seperate from express but nope it's all attached, haha.

    Oh, our store looks like the pictures Harry posted, the newer-2010 look (out of interest, our previous look wasn't the old look in the other pictues, lol, it was either the look before that or the one before that :P). I can't see the registers up close so I'm not sure if they are exactly the...

    Lol, I agree.. very handsome - a lot of people chase him I suspect :P We are slowly training our floor staff in checkouts.... would be great if the new ones came trained to begin with, but I suspect management just don't want to pay for it and would prefer a crash course in-store training.
