This is new levels, supermarket shelf counting If I'd been randomly asked the question I would have said 3 or 4 shelves, you learn something new everyday on not606. please log in to view this image
Head office staff were required to do 'Helping hands / Feet on the Floor' at Christtmas - work in store for a full day shift - really good initiative for me - very educational - helped limit anybody being a pompous, sanctimonious, know-all, arrogant, ****- you know the type?
Girona did well to get a draw against Real Madrid tonight, the latter only equalised through a Mbappe penalty.
There is a logic, not just to the number of shelves but also the sections left to right - (check out the code before the price next time you're in one) - the staff doing on-line orders do it more by the aisle number and then alpha/number per shelf rather than product (although they are supposed to pick food products with at least 7 days best before date) - as their 'performance' is timed - the hand held device they hold with the order on it goes from green to red depending on speed... Head Office staff are given am amnesty on the timing ... it is quite fascinating tbh ... only things you are not allowed to do as Head Office staff are go on the tills and, rather bizarrely, collect trolleys ... both require formal training...
Most supermarkets promotions are nowt but a con, especially the price match bollocks. Price match means we will match the price, it does not mean it will be cheaper than when the product was previously sold in the shop, in fact it can be a higher price than previously sold in the same store. Always check the weight of what you are buying, again people will pick up promotional items without checking the weight and again could actually be paying more pound for pound. And always check your receipt, sometimes products are dumped through on the wrong code, so that lettuce you bought for a quid, just actually cost you £4 because you didn't check. The weight shrinkage is probably the biggest thing used by manufacturers at the mo to cut costs, or specific ingredients, where a product previously had 20% of a specific ingredient it now only has 10% and had more **** chucked in it instead.
Mate - I joined Tesco in 2014, in fact, the very day that the 'financial impropriety' scandal broke (not my fault btw ) ... part of my job was to deal with the impact ... but the reality behind the 'scandal' was pretty intriguing ... and quite mind boggling ... revolved around the recognition of 'commercial income' from an accounting perspective - the SFO investigated and eventually concluded that there was nothing actually wrong with what Tesco had done - just pushed a few accounting boundaries to the outer limits ... but was a real eye opener tbf...
Worked in Morrisons for 5 years as a student on weekends with 2 of my mates All 3 of us had more products in our bedrooms than Boots can’t really help anyone with any other info I’m afraid regarding supermarket life however if you want to know how to box things securely to throw over the back wall in the yard for loading up your car Im your man
All psychology bro playing games and conning you into thinkin you got a bargain but they know most will fall for it
Best thing about working at Tesco was the staff discount - 10% off everything and twice a year, summer and Xmas, it would be doubled for a couple of weeks - booze buying at Xmas was carnage - always a 25% off 6 or more bottles of wine promotion ... then take 20% off that ...
I worked at Tesco for 6 months part time. They wouldn't let me have my Christmas holidays to visit my cousin's for a few weeks so i quit lol.
I hope you said this with your best Sir David Attenborough voice coz that’s how it sounded in my head
hope you did a few random flying roundhouse kicks as you was walking out to knock some **** off the shelves bro
