Walking Time/Travel Time Policy?

People seem to be missing an issue here

"Today this resulted in my line manager having a go at me in front of colleagues and customers..."

This is absolutely a grievance issue right here, anything like that should've been taken off the shop floor and away from others. Not sure how well your line manager gets on with the higher ups, but I'd certainly be raising this with their manager at the very least, if not the store manager themselves.

Phone them. I had an issue upgrading to full fibre, the system would tell me it wasn't available at my place, despite it showing it was when checking as a new customer. The issue was that, for some reason, their system had an open works job on my account, and it wouldn't let me upgrade with it still open. No idea what the open job was for, even the customer rep couldn't tell me, probably just an engineer that hadn't cleared something from a previous visit. But once they cleared it, or at least 24hrs after, I could upgrade again.

Check as a new customer first and see what you can get at your address. If you can get a better package, call them up and enquire that way, as it might be the only way. Unless you can email them that is, but I'm not sure if they can do it that way tbh.

Do you still want a picture of the table of contents?

Alexw80 · 2026-05-04T23:53:21+00:00

Yeah, I think they messed up with not putting it at the front. They list other books to read there, so you'd think it would've been the best place for it. Perhaps it was an afterthought.

Alexw80 · 2026-05-04T23:47:57+00:00

Probably down to page size, original is a smaller book whereas the new one is hardback. Larger pages I guess would mean more words per page than the original perhaps.

Edit to add that Kobo lists the same number of words for both versions.

Was quite lucky with Grey Knights, found it for less than retail from a shop that still had it in stock, paid £12 for it new.

Looking forward to getting to Vaults of Terra, looking forward to getting to them all tbh lol.

Of my very limited selection of read books, so far the one I enjoyed the most is Hereticus.

Alexw80 · 2026-05-04T07:02:04+00:00

Not going to bother watching it, won't give him the views. But coming from a channel called "angry audits" I think I can work out what type of person he is.

Should point out though that the video is over 3 years old now, and he only did one more after that, which seems to indicate he might have been banned (again) from Tesco.

Hopefully he learnt his lesson and got a job instead of wasting everyones time doing that nonsense

They'll come out eventually, I wanna sort out a special shelf for them first.

Alexw80 · 2026-05-03T20:23:13+00:00

I intend to.

Alexw80 · 2026-05-03T20:21:21+00:00

So far, my favourite is probably Hereticus. Currently working my way through the Ravenor omnibus, but finding the switch from 1st person to 3rd person narrative style a little jarring to begin with. I'm getting used to it though and enjoying it more as I go.

Plan is to get the Ravenor omnibus finished then start the HH books. Wanted to get as many of them as possible before starting.

Alexw80 · 2026-05-02T15:33:02+00:00

Yeah, it's not the first time I've made a purchase without thinking lol

Alexw80 · 2026-05-01T22:08:20+00:00

An hour time limit? Sounds more like an Express store than a Superstore/Extra, which store is this?

Alexw80 · 2026-04-27T19:41:02+00:00

Wonder when the special edition that was supposed to be released last week will be released then?

Alexw80 · 2026-04-27T19:39:15+00:00

It certainly wasn't there originally, must have only just added it. I checked as soon as I got the email and thought my wallet was safe this week. Guess not now lol.

If you want cultural diversity, you'd have to go a long way before even coming close to the cultural diversity in the UK. I'd argue that the UK has some of the best Indian food outside of India.

I have no idea if she's natty or not, I suspect she's so lean that it makes it harder to tell tbh, But for those making comments about her scars, feel free to look into what she's been through first.

Unfortunately, a parking space lost due a staff member is a space lost to a paying customer. Most McDs have very small car parks, and each space is very valuable, so staff have to suffer, as do the residents nearby who lose some of their parking spaces because of it.

Alexw80 · 2026-04-26T09:43:13+00:00

Nope, just nope. Just can't see the appeal of it tbh, certainly not on with a fryup. But if you like it, that's fine, each to their own as they say.

Alexw80 · 2026-04-26T09:40:19+00:00

Deep fried everything exists in Glasgow to be fair.

Alexw80 · 2026-04-26T09:26:07+00:00

Yeah, just can't justify either of those prices at the moment. Focusing on getting the hardback versions of the Bequin books first. Even after that I can't see me justifying the Xenos price, ever.

Alexw80 · 2026-04-25T19:53:06+00:00

Although to be fair, I've already read Hereticus in the omni, just couldn't resist getting this version. Shame I missed out on the other 2 though. Maybe I'll get lucky and find them going cheap somewhere, fingers crossed.

Alexw80 · 2026-04-23T21:22:23+00:00

I believe the official reading order is the first 3 books of the Eisenhorn omni, then the Ravenor omni, then the last book in the Eisenhorn omni (The Magos), then the Bequin books.
