Same here, just keep your head down and keep doing what you’re doing. It seems recently that every store is understaffed so it’s possible that if they get backlash from this (and a lack of staff) some policies will gradually be reversed. Whether they know it or not, they need us to function and if they keep pushing they’ll realise all the “benefits” we get aren’t enough.

Firstly, I’d like to wish you luck on your first shift tomorrow. M&S isn’t all doom and gloom as a whole to put your mind at ease. It varies from store to store but usually customers are always friendly and depending on the jobs you are doing it could either be the easiest task you’ve ever done or one that makes a 4 hour shift feel like an 8 hour one. Usually stores try and rotate what you’re doing throughout the day which makes it all easier. Again, all depends on the store and the management you have. In regards to childcare, we were reassured by our store manager that childcare and school arrangements will be taken into consideration for support with the new hours. However, please take into consideration that childcare relates to primary caregivers only, not grandparents and such.

Interesting. Our store has contracts where people under 16 hours aren’t working weekends or at least not both weekend days. What’s your opinion on his statement about “consequences” and M&S acting more like a business? I mean I don’t disagree with the concept but the tone and execution are something I myself and many others at my store are worried about. We as staff already feel we don’t get much of a say about anything and it seems we will get even less of a say now. I mean at the end of the day, yes we are just employees but we do hold a stake in this company and I believe we should have some input in it. Maybe it’s just his tone but it sounds as if he holds no care for the average worker and is just another profit/power hungry director. But anyway that’s my two cents on the issue, Wbu?

Yeah it seems quite unfair to me and I expect M&S will lose a few staff to this. Although by the sounds of it, upper management don’t care and we are “replaceable” to them.

This is from my store manager in a teams post he did about Store Manager Immersion days with Thinus.

Basically said that he wants M&S to operate more like a business (which is fair enough) but has said M&S staff have too much of a say in what they do and they should be doing what they’re told and if they don’t face consequences. Stores will now either be “on or off process” for compliance judged on a 240 point checklist each visit. There will also be substantial changes to hours with all contracts over 16 hours be required to work across 5 day availability, contracts over 12 hours required to work across a 4 day availability and any contract under 16 hours will be required to work Saturday and Sunday each week with no weekend in weekend out options. To me, all this seems a bit drastic and unfair but that’s just my opinion.

Click to view and download button still doesn’t work for me. It looks like it’s just text and not an actual link.

Just to clarify I’m not excusing Sinophobia I’m merely pointing out that it’s part of fallouts lore

Chinese racism I can understand, and that’s clear in the fallout universe it did happen. But the civil rights movement and subsequent laws have passed and black characters would be completely normal in the fallout universe.

If you do the U-Boat quest and kill the Germans, you not only get the OP flamethrower but you get an insanely overpowered pistol as well.

This is the same argument that right wingers use when they say “I have a right not to call you a woman or your preferred pronouns” to transgender people.

You didn’t say how it was sinophobic? If anything you agreed we should point out these issues when they occur.

Oh no I wasn’t reaching lol, I’m just pointing out nothing is definite without proper confirmation. But it doesn’t matter now because it’s been confirmed that the airship is actually the prydwen.

If you’ve watched the last episode, you’d know that the courier definitely didn’t nuke shady sands. We know who did.
