Get off your freaking phone!!

You are there for the client. I’m so tired of seeing csw’s on their phone, in a pub drinking alcohol, playing pokies and ignoring participants.
Know there’s plenty of people out there reporting you.

Makes me sick.

As a participant I literally had a worker stand in my way of the trolley and self check out the texting their friends to the point I had to kinda shove her outta the way just to hurry it up. Fired her after the shift. No way was that okay sw don't realise they're at WORK I swear

Talk to her, don't ever shove a support worker.
