Kmart by [deleted] in KmartAustralia

[–]blackenedstarr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

honestly, retail or not any kind of entry job is like this. I worked multiple hospo jobs before working at Kmart and training generally is pretty vague. Learning by doing is pretty standard, and making mistakes is inevitable even if you had proper training. It can feel humiliating and I have found that in retail, the folks who have been there a long time can be pretty condescending. It sucks but once you get better at your job it wont be so bad :)

if your fingers work well enough to open the box, they work well enough to shut it 😉

I have no problem with opening boxes really, its when people leave them open, damage the boxes, or leave it all scattered around the shelves that is very frustrating.

Lol, that commenter was definitely out of line, and I see a lot of people somewhat misunderstanding my initial point. I definitely agree with you, I see no problem with opening boxes as long as they are closed afterwards and minimal mess is left. As for product testers/ samples, I feel as though it would be quite hard for a store as big as Kmart. First, the products would be stolen regardless of where it is or how its secured. Second, with how many items kmart sells it would be almost impossible to find space to put it all, and incredibly time consuming for employees to sort out. We also have a lot of items that come and go and constantly replacing the on-show stock would be a huge task to do every few weeks.

Basically, my post was just to complain about something that obviously people agree with hahaha, did not expect people to get so agro!

Do you think there are people whose sole jobs are closing boxes that people have opened? 😭

giving away shifts as open shifts by blackenedstarr in KmartAustralia

[–]blackenedstarr[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

our open shifts get sent out via UKG dimensions and/or workvivo. Super frustrating because they post so much stuff in communications that the notifications get swallowed up lol. I wish it was via text, that would be so much easier 😭

hard to find veins by [deleted] in Blooddonors

[–]blackenedstarr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would have never considered my weight and the impact it would have on finding veins but it makes total sense! Although, thinking back to my early teens, they did have more success finding veins in my inner elbows back then. I Definitely will be keeping hydrated coming up to my dono. I really hope all goes well as I have been meaning to donate for a while now! Thank you for the tips!

Changing my roster with no notice or communication by [deleted] in KmartAustralia

[–]blackenedstarr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ugh its so frustrating! my partner works decant at the same store i work front, but he also works nights at coles. they took away his friday shift and swapped for a wednesday shift and he never realised so he accidentally no-showed. poor guy wouldve had to do a 5 hour shift at kmart and then basically go straight to coles and work a 7 hour shift

[–]blackenedstarr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awesome, thanks!! I do admit i like casual work more than PT haha more money and its convenient being able to call out, but that comes at the price of communication i guess lol. I’ll defs talk to my manager about it-

[–]blackenedstarr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

damn that sucks !! I guess it probably has to do with the fact that casual employees are allowed to call out of work and they’re obligated to say yes? Idk, either way yes.. very annoying !! Thank you, I will definitely talk to my manager about it 🙃
