This thread will probably end in one of two ways, both badly.
Been working in customer service at one of the countries biggest retailers.
Week 2
"How come you haven't been clocking on?"
"I haven't been told anything, nor do you have my bank details." (despite my bitching last week)
"Yeah, you won't get paid this month, it'll be double next"
Week 3
So I got paid today, the fact that they've paid me the 18-20 year old rate. Doesn't help.
Week 4
Ok everybody had to go in today at 5pm to 'prepare for the Christmas rush', if you couldn't make it, you had to give a letter to the manager stating why... the fact that she didn't turn up to this, questions the scheme.
So we watched a DVD, apparently it was about customer service, but we all thought he was gonna kill himself, which is mainly true. Then had to write on a post-it note, how we could improve the store? Everybody wrote the same thing and then we went home. I arrived at my mums house for sunday dinner, which at the time I got to hers was nice and cold.
'The management' which is a term I use loosely, said that they'd order pizza after the 'meeting'... or we could leave straight after the BS.
Yeah, thats what we all wanted to do, stay even longer and not get paid for it anyway.
I know I shouldn't be whining, but you have to question the nonsense.
