    They could, but most of them don't want to (from my experience).

    We've run out of bags before. All the other stores in the area wouldn't lend any to us... we just used all the egg boxes or people bought green bags or back when we used to have those strawberry bags for 6c. We also reused all the bags in the recycling bin, and refused bags to people on express...

    I'm not sure but I have noticed recently that a new icon has appeared on the workstation ... Remote Attendant Station... not sure what it does but maybe it's similar to the PDAs but doesn't seem very useful if its on the workstation, haha.

    lol, aren't we meant to call IT whenever we want to reboot anything? Hm, speaking of IT, one of our workstations shit itself during the upgrade last week and IT still hasn't fixed it. Hope they will get a new machine... we need more, there is always a fight for one. That, and another printer...

    The coles in our centre is like that, I think... I don't take much notice of coles. I'm from QLD, haha.

    I most likely won't get rostered attendant shifts as I either do cash office or supervise, but I'm doing the training for it. Yes, brand new ones! I was going to take a photo of the old ones to show you the CRAP we went from lol, but I forgot until it was too late. They were all facing one...

    Our SCO's go live this Wednesday. But we are just getting them for the first time. So my experiences will probably be a lot more positive than yours, lol. Manual EFTs... then what is the manual EFT button in the tender mode for? I mean, if you ever hit the manual export button, the transaction...

    Well the rf units can process their deli labels so I'd be telling your SSM to get on to them... they don't want anyone using manual RTCs anymore. The only problem is we've only got 4 printers in the store so there's a bit of a fight for them! We just got 2 new RF guns because everyone fought for...

    Surely you'd think screensavers would be such a non-issue.. obviously there's a firmware issue that can't be rectified easily :S I don't mind them taking away RTC, it's too easily abused. The only problem is if your store doesn't keep on top of orders for printable labels as we ran out of...

    Oh the IT lady that came tonight when they started ripping out our old registers told me that thr screensavers will be removed in the next couple of days as a "national decision" had been made because of all the complaints and delays haha!

    Lame.. it'd be so easy to just to go over to BWS... I already know how to use wowpos and everything. Is it possible to say I want to waive my right to max 38 hours? Is that what an 'exempt' employee is? Oh well guess I'll just get a job somewhere else, lol.

    yeah, try telling that to my store. Pretty much all our part-timers (and some full-timers) get different shifts everyweek. We just have to sign a new contract every week (each contract has "1 week only" written on it). I'm sure it's a headache for our payroll clerk, but that's the way it works...

    Yeah, I don't like the look of that... I've kind of grown fond of our green ones considering I hated changing to them originally, lol.

    ^^ Haha, I am doing the same thing.. trying to convince them to train me more properly (systems would be good!) before I tell them I'm heading overseas indefinitely around June, lol... Not that I'm trying to jip them, I just want to be able to say (when I come back) that I have systems and...

    What are they like? Are they like the BIG W ones? All I see the servo people wearing are "epump" shirts, lol (or the OLD White shirt and scarf/tie!)

    Okay, post-upgrade today, I now know what you mean about the screen waking up.. *ANGRY FACE* Not good when it's really busy and you can't even sign on!! >:| Why do they insist on releasing buggy upgrades? Pretty sure there is something else I read that's a glitch that will be "fixed in the next...

    Well at least your duty manager is actually keyed into the alarm panel... lol, our relief GM wasn't so when alarms were going off she couldn't do anything. Also, I'm thinking this project phoenix thing isn't very helpful when a) you have 1 (or more) sickies that can't be replaced b) you are...

    Ask your office cashier. Good luck, it'll probably take about 6 months, lol. If it's stolen you'll need a police report or stat. dec.

    And about sales.. ours have been down a lot but I say thats more because our centre is going though a renovation and it's driven a lot of customers away during construction since half the stores had to close. It's on the home stretch now, yay.

    lol, we don't have any bells at all! As long as I've been there we've never had them. Unsure maybe if the previous CSM decided to get rid of them because of their annoying sound or what.. I was wondering the other day if we would get bells with the new registers haha. I wouldn't mind them, since...
