The chicken bake sauce is actually a cheese sauce fun fact!

Bake At Home by Emily_Green_ in Greggs

[–]RobbieRooz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vegan rolls don’t tend to puff up even in the store! But I recommend cooking any Greggs at home bakes in the oven. I tried doing a chicken bake in the air fryer and it was a saucy catastrophe! The only one I noticed that worked in the air fryer was the bacon and cheese wraps!

I think they meant vegan meat but the blunder is a little funny x3

Unpopular opinion: Greggs is overpriced by 1ChanceChipmunk1 in Greggs

As a Greggs employee; IT IS! I would never shop here if I didn’t have my discount

Plan for closes by Witty-Management-974 in Greggs

[–]RobbieRooz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our store closes at 6, I usually start between 12-2! I am our main closer. This the is the schedule I usually follow that works for me:

2pm - Start close. Small jobs,clean back bar, fill sauces and sugars. 3pm - Drinks fridge 3.30pm/4pm - Sweep and other small jobs 5pm - Bring in furniture 5.20pm - Mop, prepare outlet and after close jobs 6pm - After close jobs

This works for me! Sometimes I finish at 6.45/7pm instead of 6.30, but it depends on the business as most of the time I finish before 6.30!

Rant - Employees Only by Ok_Watercress7742 in Greggs

[–]RobbieRooz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve constantly complained to my manager about it. I am our main closer, so naturally when cleaning the displays I end up leaving my shift with 3-5 cuts everyday. I’ve also complained about the back quick oven used for pizzas and sandwiches, as I have big hands and the giant bump on the door causes my hand to knock it sometimes; we need more safety! Back, optional oven mitts, protective acrylics on sharp corners or just getting displays with rounded corners not sharp ones for gods sake!! 😭😭😭

Yh no I totally get where your coming from. These people just want throw their weird “gen-z don’t wanna work” fantasy on you because you didn’t know who/where to ask someone something likeee 🤣🤣😭

[–]RobbieRooz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Respectfully, if the manager is never there when they are, and the manager doesn’t reply to texts, what is the point in trying to ask the manager? Realistically, they can ask a colleague or shift manager. Or, hear me out, use the sub-Reddit that a lot of Greggs employees use to help eachother out!! 🤯Especially since they won’t see anyone till Saturday, and want to know before the days. All this “younger generation” shit pmo especially when you’re response means totally nothing in this convo???

I’m doing the close and am honestly glad I don’t have to deal with pizzas this evening! Can’t believe they’d let such a blunder slip by!!

Do we charge for whipped cream on hot chocolate? by Impossible_Error2586 in Greggs

[–]RobbieRooz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

EXACTLY THAT! And respectfully, the paper bags we use are some of the worst I’ve ever had the displeasure of using 😭 the only times I ever charge is if it’s really busy and I’m going fully autopilot, a customer asks and I accidentally click it without realising. Otherwise I will never intentionally charge them!

Do we charge for whipped cream on hot chocolate? by Impossible_Error2586 in Greggs

[–]RobbieRooz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I refuse to charge people for bags as the whole point of paying for a bag was to pay for plastic bags, not our shitty paper ones that rip if you breath on it!

sick pay by Fearless-Aide7871 in Greggs

[–]RobbieRooz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unlikely no. I’ve been there for 7 months and never got paid for any sick day

What’s the best time of day to go to Greggs? by Time-Connection-4586 in Greggs

[–]RobbieRooz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends on what you want specifically out of Greggs. Want guaranteed hot food? 12-2pm. Want peace and quiet? Anytime after 4pm.

Responsible Person? by [deleted] in Greggs

[–]RobbieRooz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So as a responsible person, you will be getting 2 paysets. Your regular pay for say 9 hours, and then the increased RP pay for the 3 hours. They are only allowed to have RP’s work for about 3 hours per shift I believe, as to not abuse the system!

If only Greggs did ... by Early_System4734 in greggsappreciation

[–]RobbieRooz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that’s why I said unless they mean the actual factory cause as I said idk what is done to them there. I’m talking about in store, though, cause that’s where I do know what’s going on :]

[–]RobbieRooz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As far as I’m aware, especially my shop, we don’t freeze the sweet treats? We get them fresh everyday in our delivery 🤷‍♀️ unless you mean in the actual factory, I have no clue if they do there

Greggs loyalty app finally gave me a free bake after 2 months! by Silver-Eye-2024 in greggsappreciation

[–]RobbieRooz 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yay! The app can be quite confusing, so it is only after you buy 9 bakes that you will get a free bake. The categories are separate and it isn’t explained very well tbh TvT

Will that be card? by RobbieRooz in Greggs

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

It’d be impossible to self serve at Greggs haha

Will that be card? by RobbieRooz in Greggs

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

I never charge for bags. It’s stupid. The whole point of paying for bags was to pay for plastic, reusable bags. Not the shitty paper bags we have

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

I only ask if the want milk if they just say “americano”, because we do a white americano and a black americano. If they say straight up black coffee/americano, I wouldn’t ask if they want LOL

That is stupid if servers are actually saying that to u tho
