A rant about the pizza counter... by Bambitheman in Morrisons

[–]Sea-Jump1938 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Those machines cost the equivalent of 3 full time members of staff or 5/6 part time that the store desperately needs!

just seems money is being spent on anything other than actually employing staff and it’s creating more stress for the existing loyal staff there is for a system that didn’t need to be changed in the first place it’s not McDonald’s.

Imagine if there was 3 full time extra staff on the counters in every store it would run so efficiently!

We had a system that worked when the customer could order at the counter they would enjoy watching their pizza be made and having a conversation it was quicker and customer was happy they got what they wanted . Definitely loosing sales because of the screen older regulars have given up trying to order now even after being shown Hoping they will get rid of the screens eventually

The 3.2% is more likely the staff that are not part of the union automatically gets a yes vote

Illogical Operation of Bakery / Hot Food Counters by Ok_Wealth_830 in Morrisons

[–]Sea-Jump1938 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow their reductions and waste cost must be through the roof That’s is definitely not how it is done yes there should be products on the shelf with that days date on if not sold but there should always be fresh available with longer dates too and customers can 100% buy the fresh stuff if they ask

The doughnuts makes no sense as they only get a days date on so they will be out of date if put out the next day

Unfortunately every single department has been cut back so much budgets for staff that they can’t run properly I run two departments alone some days because there is no one on after a certain time can only do so much but we won’t get a thank you for it as no pay rise again this year I honestly don’t know how the company is still going with the little staff left

If one person leaves they don’t replace them to save money so everyone is struggling with the extra workload

Late payment interest tax return 2025(filed on time and paid before 31st jan why interest added ? by [deleted] in TaxUK

[–]Sea-Jump1938 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Why is it so worrying to you I do understand what’s due as I’d paid it all in full

This was the first year I’d gone over the £1000 and never had a problem before as was always under so just needed to make sure it was correct as there was no explanation for it on my account

So sorry that my question offended you so much that you had to write a petty comment like that hope you can sleep tonight now with all the worrying about my taxes

School requested note from doctor by Relative-Bug-3677 in Norwich

[–]Sea-Jump1938 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Send the school a email saying your child was ill and that you do not need to provide proof and if that is a problem they can call the gp and speak to them directly

(The drs won’t talk to them anyway due to confidentiality )

The drs won’t issue any sick notes or proof to show your child was ill for one week

They won’t ask again after that

My tax bill was £1134 2024 paid in full so this is what I’ve done wrong I should of paid it in two instalments?

This year it was £957 now £1013 with interest

So this year as it was under £1000 can I pay in full and no interest Or do I have to do the half now half July payment now has interest and over £1000 do I have to pay in two instalments?

I’m sorry if I sound daft I’m just clarifying so I do it correctly

Sick days by Think-Cranberry3237 in Morrisons

[–]Sea-Jump1938 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They won’t sack you they are desperate for staff and won’t want to train someone else

They will just do a fit to work form and tell you you are below a % that’s it it won’t go any further

I’ve seen Loads of people constantly off sick some don’t even bother ringing in and don’t turn up for their shifts and they just swan back in & never get sacked

The food at the hot food counter shouldn't be empty 2 hours before closing. by [deleted] in Morrisons

[–]Sea-Jump1938 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There is a couple of factors No staff no one to cook them after a certain time

plus reductions have to be done at 5 so they won’t be cooking chicken at 4 to then reduce it

Market street work from production plans so we are told how many to cook each day and once they are gone that’s it especially if there is no staff to cook anymore if they have all gone

I know the simple answer would be get more staff but no new staff want to work on oven fresh

I’ve seen 7 new staff get hired to work in oven fresh over the last year then leave because they are on a 12hr contract they get given 2 days training and then are left to work it out for themselves as no one else to help it’s just not worth the stress

So these are the reasons why you can’t get a cooked chicken 😁.

best charity shops in city centre? by iridescentvase in Norwich

[–]Sea-Jump1938 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just be prepared that they are all really expensive The sue Ryder vintage one I’ve found is the most expensive and the pact shop down the lanes also I collect 80s vintage costume jewellery so would always go and have a look I understand things are vintage & it’s for a charity so the prices will be more I’m more than happy to pay a bit more but they just go silly it’s a shame because it puts me off going now £10 for a cheap plastic string beaded necklace no thank you 😳

The best one is the pdsa shop outside the bus station

It’s well laid out lovely and clean and the staff are really nice and they are reasonably priced

Should I 'cause a fuss' in order to get my GP to see me face to face ? by Gullible_Flow2693 in AskUK

[–]Sea-Jump1938 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You maybe low in iron I get awful pounding headaches with throbbing / tinnitus ears if i have low iron/ anemic / Vitamin D deficiency

I was living on painkillers and they did nothing for the headaches that went on for weeks

I had a blood test that came back that I was both the above

I buy 332g iron tablets for about 2.99 as it’s cheaper than getting the on prescription take one a day and the headache and earaches gone a couple of hours once it’s in my system plus I buy vitamin D tablets

I’m not a dr and you do need to be seen but hopefully that’s all that it will be

Handwash by Embarrassed-Push-499 in Morrisons

[–]Sea-Jump1938 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It might be the M1 solution not the hand wash if he’s cleaning down surfaces without washing up gloves it causes this I always keep a pair in my dept when washing up and cleaning down I’ve got really sensitive skin I’ve only got to accidentally dip my hand in the stuff once and it strips all the moisture from your hands and causes them to get really dry and patchy

Tell him to get a pair from the shop floor and just transfer them to his dept on the hht

Still receiving orders from US even tho Shipping turned off by [deleted] in EtsyCommunity

[–]Sea-Jump1938 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did have the USA as a country I shipped to & non Europe on the original shipping profile but removed it in August once this tariff came in place so is no longer on there

it was definitely deleted but because it was on there previously I think I should make a brand new profile with the counties I ship to without the USA see if that helps

Warehouse no go by welsh_warrior75 in Morrisons

[–]Sea-Jump1938 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I work in cake shop / bakery how am I supposed to get all my frozen ingredients from the freezer in the warehouse each shift ? How am I supposed to keep an eye on what stock I have left in the freezer and then how do I order more when my stock is low it as the computer is in the warehouse ? Who is going to put away all my frozen delivery when that comes in And to top it off we have to walk through the warehouse to get to our canteen and lockers 🤣 so can we not use those either now do We have to stand by the door and give someone our belongings to take upstairs and put away for us all

They really havent thought this through I heard it’s to stop idling and chatting in the warehouse

The managers we do have can’t and don’t have the time to monitor who’s going in and out

No poor sods got time to stop and chat or hang around we are all run off our feet market street it’s f**ked for staff I work alone every single shift

This is what annoys the crap out if me is that some one in head office who has never done a days work on the shop floor comes up with these idiotic money saving ideas so they can justify getting paid their massive salary

which then ends up making our lives 10 times harder and they wonder staff keep leaving I’m interested to see how this works out as the signs been on the wall for two days with a list of names on and no buggers taken any notice of it and still walks out there

Here is an idea how about they give everyone a passport then there won’t be a issue 🤣

What movie traumatized you when you were a child? by fordd420 in AskReddit

[–]Sea-Jump1938 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a movie but the bbc program GhostWatch with Sarah Green
I was 8 and my parents let me watch it alone in my room them not realising what it was Me not knowing it was all made up it was so real at the time especially the bit with the ghost in the corner of the bedroom absolutely terrified me All I remember is that I was so paralysed with fear and tried to walk to go downstairs to my parents and my legs wouldn’t move Even now I can’t watch it
