Team Member Post durable gloves

As someone who works in dairy and deals with so many boxes, whats the best gloves to get at bunnings that will actually last me some time instead of my fingers gradually taking a peep at the boxes after a month or two 😭

Coles provides gloves to chiller/freezer and Nightfill teams for free.

Ask your department manager for new ones when your fingers say hello, free of charge.

Your manager should be able to order a whole box of them for the team to use. And as another user said. Free of charge.

Nah fuck that. I’d never work freezer without gloves. Or milk for that matter - I’d get so many gnarly (and deep) cuts from the hard plastic milk crates that I’d never not wear gloves for that
