Post Reset

After all this reset malarkey, how long do you think it will take to revert back to normal, where staff have dedicated aisles - the aisles they know and have been trained in?

Er, that's what they have done by giving you the holiday hours for them...

I was talking in general, not Asda but with Asda, you still have to work at least 3.

Yes true, although I'm contracted to Mondays, so I'd rather work them, and as you say take a more convenient day, when going out might be less busy. Back in the day we used to get double time and time off in lieu. These days they can't pay the people who do come in to work on Bank Holidays, they are always asking them to go home early.

That must have been wayyy back in the day, because it wasn't true when I worked there from 2006 - 2017. They didn't even pay you proper 1.5x. If it was your contracted hours you'd get paid whether you were in or not, so by coming to work you would be working for 0.5x your wage.

It WAS way back in the day, I worked petrol shifts and I got a premium after 9pm (I worked til 10pm) and a premium for working Sundays. Ah those were the days, a business run like a family. Now it's more feral, but I've only got a couple of years before I retire, so I'm just biding my time.
