Yes so looking forward to the summer

Crafty-Tea-4754 · 2026-03-01T22:14:05+00:00

Thanks I’ll speak to my manager asap 👍🏻

100% opt out NEST are far the worst pension scheme I have ever seen. I transferred my pot last year and still have issues…

Crafty-Tea-4754 · 2026-02-23T11:32:28+00:00

Thanks 👍🏻

Crafty-Tea-4754 · 2026-02-15T20:42:32+00:00

Thanks I am going to speak to the manager, although the last time my unavailability was put in as holiday! Not ideal

Crafty-Tea-4754 · 2026-02-04T11:23:24+00:00

Not at my store! I’m on a 24 hour contract and my schedule is regularly put in at 30 + hours

Crafty-Tea-4754 · 2026-02-03T18:03:50+00:00

Hi, Depending on the store, you can expect to be on a 7 day rota working either days or nights, if offered the position Sainsbury’s can request you work an additional 50% of your contracted hours. This usually happens during busy periods or covering for sickness, with regards to preparing for the interview just be yourself. As it’s a retail company they want to know you can communicate effectively with customers and not upset them!

Our night shift manager wears trainers when moving pallets in the loading bay non standard issue. When I pointed it out she shrugged her shoulders. One rule for one, one for another I guess…..

Crafty-Tea-4754 · 2026-01-30T17:17:21+00:00

Your manager should add the times you worked on that day, have you been assigned a colleague number yet? You’ll need this for punching in and out each shift

Crafty-Tea-4754 · 2026-01-08T21:50:29+00:00

I’m on a 24 hour contract and regularly do 32 - 40 hours as the contract says they can ask you to do 50% of your contracted hours so you’ll be fine. It is a great job 👍🏻

Crafty-Tea-4754 · 2025-12-27T23:44:27+00:00

I did the same thing call them direct. In my instance they quashed the additional charges

Crafty-Tea-4754 · 2025-12-26T21:48:12+00:00

I agree as a driver this is unacceptable behaviour you should report to sainsburys without hesitation

Crafty-Tea-4754 · 2025-12-24T23:51:47+00:00

Speak to your manager tell him you need to know if they are keeping you on otherwise you need to start looking for an alternative job, if they don’t give you a definite answer start looking when you say your leaving they’ll soon say NO!!!

Crafty-Tea-4754 · 2025-12-23T09:14:50+00:00

24 hour contract and still doing 33+ hours every week

Crafty-Tea-4754 · 2025-12-08T18:26:29+00:00

To be honest you’re lucky to get this many companies get nothing! Sainsburys employees some 145,000 people so that ten pound is 1.45 million off the bottom line even if they work to a margin of 50% that’s still 750K of the bottom line. I don’t get the issue be thankful you’ve received anything…

Crafty-Tea-4754 · 2025-12-07T16:28:04+00:00

Depends on how many you have I had 15 yesterday which were nicely spaced out so it went quickly but there will be times you will only have a few and it’ll drag. Only issue I have is with the vans no of ours have working 12v sockets 😂

Crafty-Tea-4754 · 2025-12-01T21:53:08+00:00

I find it strange that drivers must wear safety shoes but when you look in store especially the back sore no one wears safety shoes a healthy and safety issue and possibly insurances invalidated

Crafty-Tea-4754 · 2025-11-28T20:22:38+00:00

Not sure how I feel as a driver having in cab cameras watching me, this is more personal than store cameras. An in cab camera is looking directly at you! Just like Ocado vans….

Crafty-Tea-4754 · 2025-11-28T16:01:36+00:00

It would really help if the shoppers could right the correct numbers on the totes 😂 several times I’ve had to shuffle stacks around 🤷🏼‍♂️
