Hi, all. I work in Sainsburys, and during a condensed induction day, I observed approximately 10mins of the company DVD detailing how to confront a suspected shop lifter, which may I add did not resolve the situation whatsoever. I recently completed my studies in physics, and with graduate jobs seldom advertised over Christmas, decided to earn my keep during the festive period working part time in Sainsburys as it was a job advertised at short notice. In my opinion it is a tad mundane, you are treated like a child and, my weekly earnings yield a difference of approximately ?10 to that of jobseekers allowance. I could quite happily part with the cash so I may wallow in my bed while the rest of the rat race continues to run the wheel. Fortunately I am fit and able to work, so I put aside what academic merits I have accumulated and, pursue work I could have easily secured upon leaving school. I have encountered many characters in store akin to that of Eater81 who lack the intellectual capacity to fathom that there is no correlation between pay and the calibre of staff employed in an establishment such as this. Such an attitude is belittling, rude and, detrimental to the image of my colleagues, who like me are just between their preferred job, or trying to support a family. I have yet to encounter a ?muppet? within the store, I imagine some do exist, as in any place of work, take yours for instance. Perhaps the manner in which you approach them provokes that sort of response, ever encountered Newton?s 3rd law? ?14k a year may be peanuts, but at least it buys me manners.
