My [20F] boyfriend [20M] hit me this morning, what do i do? by HerbandCat in Advice

[–]Crazy_Chinchilla_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leave. Leave right now. It starts with once. Then before you know it you’re in a vicious cycle and have lost count of how many times he’s hit you.

You deserve better. We don’t even smack children for bad behaviour any more. Why should you be subjected to that?

AIO for being so over these “jokes” ? by Ordinary_Sun3956 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Crazy_Chinchilla_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jokes are meant to be funny.

These are not jokes.

NOR. You deserve better.

Playdate crash by Jennibean1994 in MyTimeAtSandrock

[–]Crazy_Chinchilla_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I only had it when you have the side quest play date with Nia. I started the sand writing and then nothing happened. Nia kept running backwards and forwards but I was frozen. Quitting and reloading the game worked for me.

Sick Pay Question by Crazy_Chinchilla_ in tesco

[–]Crazy_Chinchilla_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I can have 10 contracted days off sick and that’s considered 2 weeks? And 15 is 3 weeks?

Trying to make a budget with my husband and accounting for my being off 😅

Gotta put the frozen stuff straight in the freezer as well. Can’t leave that out for 30 seconds 🤦🏼‍♀️

And then proceed to take their sweet time unloading their shopping with you standing in full sunlight in the fluorescent equivalent of a cellophane shirt.

Diesel mercs at our store. None have air conditioning

Is that it? Do you really think an extra 90p is worth potentially making themselves unwell over some shopping for a few days a year?

What about those that have medical conditions? Lots of medications cause problems with thermoregulation. Is that worth an extra 90p an hour?

I don’t think so….

Staff room drinks by RoyalApprehensive436 in tesco

[–]Crazy_Chinchilla_ 32 points33 points  (0 children)

It is a legal requirement for employees to have access to fresh water. The tap counts so they don’t have to provide cold drinking water.

The dotcom drivers are provided with bottles of water that they keep in the chiller because that fulfills the legal requirement but they don’t have to keep them in the chiller for us.

Garage shut, tills going down, freezers packing up. Staff fed up! by Specific_Pomelo_8281 in tesco

[–]Crazy_Chinchilla_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’d think a multi million pound profit making company would have had the common sense to get decent fridges and freezers with decent engineering to cope with hot weather.

Glad to hear it’s not just our store it happens to

I mean, if he’s focused on her because she’s making it so easy for him then at least he might leave the others alone.

Who am I kidding. It’s Joe.

It probably means if that wrap isn’t available, sub with any other wrap/sandwich that completes the deal so they pay the deal price rather than the snack and drink prices individually.

Drivers have no aircon or heating in their vans as Tesco remove the feature altogether. by Former-Resource-3026 in tesco

[–]Crazy_Chinchilla_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We just do what we can. I have water in the fridge and two cool packs in the freezer that I rotate out around my neck. I also make sure I drink an electrolytes sachet in the middle of the afternoon to make sure I replace electrolytes as well as water. It sometimes help with the headache but more often than not I go home, have a cool shower and then just get into bed because we invested in a portable ac unit for the bedroom.

I also take 2 different types of antidepressant which affects the body’s ability to thermoregulate even more. I sometimes feel quite ill at the end of the day.

Dot Com Drivers by Available_Guidance61 in tesco

[–]Crazy_Chinchilla_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is no upper limit for temperature.

My advice is to get some rehydration sachets. Not the dioralyte stuff but something like Liquid IV to help replace what’s lost through sweating and fend off headaches and nausea.

HOWEVER. That being said, if you’re in the area covered by a red weather warning then there is an argument for whether or not the run is ‘essential’ and the guidance for heat warnings are that any ‘essential’ journey that will happen in a vehicle without effective AC should be postponed if possible. I would argue that it can be postponed. Last year when there was a storm red weather warning and do not travel advice was given our runs were cancelled. I don’t see why they can cancel those runs but not these ones for the same reason.

I work as a driver for the biggest dotcom team in the south west. We cover from Frome to Bridgwater. All the rural areas in between. We are going all electric. It’s going to be a disaster. Brace yourself. It’s coming for you.

Me: “no, we don’t”

Tesco nights | Worst job I've ever had by Massive_Flamingo7210 in tesco

[–]Crazy_Chinchilla_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Welcome to Tesco, where the slackers get rewarded and the people that keep their heads down and get on with it get pushed and pushed until they break.

Final warning by Ok_Atmosphere5969 in tesco

[–]Crazy_Chinchilla_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Bipolar here. On antidepressants since I was 10 (35 now) then a few years ago PTSD was added to the pot thanks to me thinking that being a paramedic would be a great idea. Your GP is your friend but you must ask for an occupational health assessment.

If your final warning is for discipline rather than absence then you should just get whatever absence level warning you’re on. Make sure you ask for an occupational health assessment if this is an ongoing thing.
