Hello!

I work on department with fuck all staff. A lot of the time there is shit tonnes of work not completed. (Would take about 15 hours to complete everything).

Every time I leave I feel slightly guilty as I don't want shit to go out of date and eventually wasted. But in reality it's not my fault that they are not hiring extra. I work my arse off but still feel guilty. They decreased my hours each shift but gave me extra day so this is also not my fault.

What would you / how would you feel about this situation? Thank you

Hi,

So I’ve just started at ASDA, I went to the induction day last week, signed my contracts online at start of this week and I’m still waiting to hear what days I’m working (I’m part time working as a student). They said on the induction day they’ll call me either that evening or the next day but I never got a call.

The past week has been multiples time of me calling the store, a colleague saying they’ll call back in an hour, then never calling back, then I ask if there is any update and they say they’ll call back ASAP.

How can a place be this unorganised? Anyway do you guys have any tips how to handle this? I don’t want to sound too pushy and rude but I also want to know when I’m working and start earning money.

How do you do this? I've been told via workday but can't find anything so does anyone know the process??

Thanks!

Hi all, I started at Asda express about just over a month ago. I am still on probation, and recently the store manager was put on gardening leave.

The new store manager started last week, and I believe she sees potential for a team leader role in me. I have worked in retail before, (I’ve got about a year of experience now) however I’ve never been in a managerial role before. One of the team leaders is ‘off sick’ and I don’t think he plans on coming back, the other is off on holiday for the next 2 weeks and the last one only opens.

I have closed about 4 times now as an acting manager, I’m comfortable closing however I’ve not had any proper team leader training. I haven’t been officially promoted to a team leader (I’m still on colleague pay) yet I do all of the team leader tasks, including cashing up.

Some of my colleagues have said I’m an idiot for not asking for a pay rise, but I’m still on probation and don’t want to be demanding. Plus, my store manager has mentioned there aren’t any vacancies for any more team leaders

What should I do? Do I keep closing as a colleague or do I ask for a pay rise? Thanks in advance for any advice or help.

The shelves are always covered with mince pies, every type you can imagine. Every year, the same thing. Mince pies, fruit cakes, iced fruit cakes, german goodies and panettone that nobody really wants.

Why do they delay putting out the chocolate yule logs later and later every year? They used to put them out mid October. But I haven't seen any yet. I'm told it will not be until mid November that they finally come out.

Someone please explain why? Feels like they're being withholding on the good stuff. And what will they cost this year? £8 or £9, up from £6?

I can't sign into workday now

Heading to my local 24 hour ASDA at midnight, they had BO7 last year, just wondering if anyone working at Asda has seen or heard of any stock arriving for midnight? Thanks :)
