Man, what a crap company to work for.

Despite being contracted to work weekends, they have scheduled me to work everyday next week except christmas day. Even though i wrote my name on the sheet that said "Im not working boxing day, you slugheads".

Belldandy was right. They are crap to work for. And my contract doesnt end for like a month.

:(

Boxing Day and New Year we get normal pay + time and a half.

We get rewarded for selling them videos. Sometimes get extra pay (1 hour for every 10 sold), sometimes we go home early and sometimes we're given one of the video's or a selection box or something. So that helps motivate me to ask customers. When I don't sell any, my manager shouts at me because his manager shouts at him if we do a small amount. It's stupid how big of a part of Woolworths they have become.

Good DVD sale starting today though...Adaptation, Once Upon A Time In The West, City Of God...

You should really post that in the Life.. forum. It would provoke a great deal of hilarity.

Anyway, my mate worked in Woolies for a few years and liked it. Except for the one time he caught two cleaners in their fifties having sex in an office.

What really annoys me is that Woolworts stock so much music, but very little rock or metal except System of a Down and Nirvana. It's now selling more albums than pop stuff, so why don't they satisfy everyone and make sme money at the same time?
