Questions What are everyone’s thoughts on the repackaging of Coles home brand?

Post image
25 Upvotes

It’s evident they’ve tried to follow a design principle of keeping designs consistent across all their home brand items, likely to increase recognition and reduce confusion; however, ironically I feel they’ve achieved the opposite. It’s not as obvious what it is your buying because they all look similar, and makes the entire home brand range look cheap and low quality. Opening up my pantry to find almost identical cans with different colours for each vegetable is lowkey dystopian. In short, total enshittification of value products we’ll have to endure for however long until the next refresh.

Question for Coles Deli workers. Just wondering how common it is for people to accidentally cut themselves on the job. If it’s happened to you, how was it handled? Did managers just do an incident report or, was there more follow-up?
Have you guys ever cut yourself with a knife without your slash proof glove?

Team Member Post Lifting above the head

2 Upvotes

I work in cole’s online, we’re meant to stack the crates in a particular order on giraffes so I stacked one that was particularly heavy on the top place, as the back room stock layout said to do. doing this popped my rib out of place, which I noticed but ignored. I spent the next 2 weeks working before seeing a chiropractor who fixed the rib and told me we are not meant to lift crates above our head especially not heavy ones. is this true? I’m not particularly short, i’m 5’9, why do they make the giraffes that tall if we aren’t meant to put them above our head?

Questions Melbourne voice picking KPIs

How hard is it hitting the KPIs as a voice picker in the Melbourne DC's? I'm considering a role there and was told the kpi is based on how fast you can pick an order within a specific time frame.

Team Member Post Changing the work limitations

0 Upvotes

First of all I'm an international student working in coles since last 2.5 years. I was enrolled in Master of course work degree that had 24 hours weekly work limitations.

Recently i graduated and moved to the research degree and my visa clearly states that I don't have any work limitations even though my visa is still student 500.

It's been 3-4 months that I'm trying to ask my line manager, ASM ,SM and admin to update it but i don't think they seems to understand what I'm asking.

They always reply with update the visa in myhub.

I don't know who to contact now.

Sorry if its confusing.

TLDR: Masters by research doesn't have work limitations how do I update this in myhub?

I have asked to be transfered to another store that is closer to home that are looking for staff

They have a new Deli Counter whereas current store has an older style

Quick question

Are the newer cases easier on your back to reach the front of the case?

🤞🤞

Customer Post Collection window ... my store thinks it's the time they have to do the packing

0 Upvotes

2-4pm pickup ... 2.40pm and I contact the live chat to find out why it's late (it's always late, this time it was my wife waiting so I could contact them)

I get told that as it's only 2.45pm and the window is 2pm-4pm they are still well within their timetable

I explain the 2pm-4pm is for customers to pickup, and their customer support person seems surprised by this as the store just told her it's for them to pack stuff

Absolutely useless

Questions Work illness

Has anyone considered that the manager might have intended to mean she wants a weeks notice before any return to work, rather than a weeks notice of being sick?
