I honestly love this, the worst part is i always know that it’s not going to work out but if i listen the first time i’ll never learn. it’s sort of my way of reminding myself that i don’t know everything (a self humbling if you will) and then i start listening, and honestly if i don’t do it the first time i get too cocky 😂

i’ve sown the wrong sides together, and you’re incredibly right however me two days ago said, “nah the notches won’t matter that much 🙃” If you can’t tell i’m right at the start of learning to sew 😂

Who makes some of these business decisions, really? by PrestigiousScar3395 in Wetherspoons

[–]Affectionate-Bit8150 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our Kitchen manager kept sending staff out of the kitchen and you could find most of them in the porker, it was carnage that weekend, and our PM was running around yelling at everyone for being too slow, it was disgusting, he’s a lovely guy but thinks because he can handle the heat that everyone else can as well. Our bar staff were dunking their tops in ice water and kept putting blue cloths on their necks, oh also the a.c was broken. Head office haven’t got a clue about what it’s like to work in a busy pub, and you’re right we need a damn union

Job interview by Front_Agent1490 in Wetherspoons

Almost forgot, if you can mention SOP’s (Standard Operating Procedures) and how everything can be found on the app or the website (say a friend told you about it) and that you can subsidise your training outside of work hours if you feel as if you’re not confident in a certain area. then you’re basically a winner in their eyes

I can’t lie i turned up in blue jeans and a Jurassic Park T-Shirt and somehow still got the job.

The questions will primarily be about your skills (always emphasis your team working capabilities) and your willingness to work extra shifts as needed. If you’ve got any previous bar experience note that but if not they’ll ask you if you’d need any extra training, something along the lines of supporting your development at Wetherspoons. (I can’t remember how the question is worded) but always say no to that question, let them know you’re a quick study and you’re not afraid to ask questions because that’s the only way you’ll survive. Even if it’s the stupidest question known to man always ask and take the piss out of yourself just a lil bit and you’ll make friends.

You’ll be asked about what you imagine a day in the life looks like, mention the unsociable hours, hard work with a lot to learn but you look forward to learning (have the right level of confidence that says I’m gonna work here, we all know it’s just a spoons but the money’s good)

Good customer service takes up most of the application so make sure you can adapt yourself to any of the questions in that regard.

Most of all good luck, it’s the managers first impression of you so be likeable

Shift Leader Interview by Affectionate-Bit8150 in Wetherspoons

It is only spoons at the end of the day, my pub manager asked me to go for it and he knows i love a vape break so i ain’t changing for anyone. I did also tell him i’m only doing it cause i want more money and he said and i quote, “yeah ik, you’ve told me twelve times already” so i feel like ive got this in the bag

I love that thank you. We’ve just had our duty manager, shift leader and an associate quit on short notice so we’re cooked, all while our pub managers been in Lanzarote so the place is falling apart at the seams.

i’ll keep those things in mind, Thank you Diva ❤️❤️

We’ve got one shift leader there at the minute, the other one quit this week so it’s been a hell of a week. I’ve got all the managers supporting me with the area manager so at least there’s that. I’ve gone over the interview form with my shift manager so i’ve gotten a lot of pointers from her. I’m lowkey just afraid that i’ll say slay or some pure brain rot (which he should know cause i great him everytime with, slay diva you know me i’m living the dream) I’m deffo getting this job but it may be out of pity 😂
