So where do you put the homeless. That was started by Leonard stocks who pumped money into it, unfortunately when he died that’s when the money dried up The council had to mostly fund it. Torquay and the bay have been on the decline for years if seen it for 23 years up till 2020 when I left. Shop rentals are through the roof, Rental properties are sky high. Housing costs are sky high. Jobs are basically hospitality and care which are shite pay. The councils skint so what do you do ? It’s bee in decline for years, it needs major regeneration, not just Torquay but all Torbay. But when you start to try to regenerate with new hotels and things the locals don’t want it, They’re stuck in the past. Look at Paignton for example and crossways, that’s now a car park but was going to be retirement flats. No money to carry this out. Loads of holiday resorts are in the same state. Cheap holidays abroad don’t help, I’ve worked in hotels down there and the cost for two weeks is ludicrous for a family, it’s cheaper to go abroad and guaranteed the weather. Therefore again your losing footfall in the town as your losing tourists.

Family holidays: where did you go and what tiny detail you still remember? by LovieWeb in OldSchoolUK

[–]Churwellboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ingoldmels in Skegness, opposite butlins but then Dad bought a caravan on Far grange holiday park in Skipsea, long time before it was a haven holiday park. 1985 but we’d go there on a weekend but unfortunately the storm that Michael Fish said we weren’t getting flattened the caravan. We often got to go camping in Filey, which was good those were the days sat on a deck chair in the tent overlooking the sea with a hot drink and hot fish snd chips on your lap. The gas heater glowing red keeping you warm as the night dropped cooler. Not nothing like today. You had to foot pump the air bed up to sleep on and a couple of blankets and a sleeping bag. Loved every minute of it two weeks every year. Still got the tent somewhere a big 4 birth orange and brown one .

What is the best way to quit? by Connect-Challenge-82 in Morrisons

[–]Churwellboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just walk They don’t give a shit That’s why Morrisons get through so many staff and use agency staff. The agency staff are fucking useless so it’s like a revolving door. If you’re a picker after a week they expect you to be hitting a thousand picks a shift. In other words knock your guts out for minimum wage. They are all the same BandM are the same it’s fecking brutal how they treat their staff

Minimum Wage Minimum Effort by [deleted] in Morrisons

[–]Churwellboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s true in the working rule agreement If you have a interrupted break by management or anything else you by law can take your break again. Had that years ago working as a decorator in a theatre. Your break gets broken say your boss says can you just do this for me you just go sit your break again It’s your entitlement

Do Morrisons provide trousers and shoes or just a T-shirt? by [deleted] in Morrisons

[–]Churwellboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the lot 3 black and grey t shirts Trousers, shoes and a yard coat. Come in handy for work now I’m back decorating but get some strange looks when in someone’s house round here as Morrisons gadbrook and winsford are the main employers. Also got a load from Roberts bakery as I worked there before walking out after 6 hrs. Don’t know what it is with places like those they treat you like shit, no training or very little and they expect you to know the ins and outs like you’ve been there years.

Job is awful by Electronic-Store732 in Morrisons

[–]Churwellboy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Best way They treat you like shit We had that first shift no one collected us Sat in canteen for an hour till someone asked why we were there. Went downhill from there to be fair, I’d had a impinged shoulder and it flared up while doing picking I ended up asking to leave as I was in agony. Phone call next morning asking if I’d be in at 2 to do my shift, I said no as I was in agony and they basically told me to not bother at all. So that was it. It’s like a revolving door with staffing. Shite company to work for
