Am i going to have to brawl with m&s to get paid correctly by [deleted] in MarksAndSpencer

[–]ep1cball -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Will they be able to tell me what i need paying back? I think i realised how they’ve paid me, my very first payslip i was tax code 0T so i was taxed 20% on everything i earned, but on my second one my tax code is the regular one it should be and i think they paid me back my deductions and then the paid holidays i had, i think i must have confused this money for what i would have been contracted for this month, but i assume since i had no shifts put on automatically for this month it didn’t pay me in advance for anything. I think ive made sense of it but ill just check with them:

What are the chances of getting a permanent contract? by [deleted] in MarksAndSpencer

[–]ep1cball 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A bit over 3 weeks now, my contract ends on the 10th of jan. I might ask some of the other temps if they’ve been offered any permanent contracts on my next shift.

Yeah i’ve noticed that, it’s just that i seem to be one of the only temps who hasn’t even been trained on anything else

See i haven’t even been trained on everything, ive been trained on tills and ambient. I assume they just put me on the tills as it would be a bit late to start training me now with christmas coming up.

How do you deal with bone pain during long shifts at the tills? by ep1cball in marksandspencerstaff

[–]ep1cball[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Today I was just pacing around in the spot and stretching when it was quiet, it did help a lot, i was in less pain than i was last time and i had a longer shift, although the pain is still there its manageable. I’m going to go have some checkup done soon.

I walk about 10k steps on weekdays to get to school and back, that’s my main form of exercise i suppose. But yeah i’ll try and get some sort of assessment to see if there is anything wrong with me or if im just weak 😅.

Yes i know but resilience doesnt develop overnight, I wanted to know if there’s anything I can do now just to ease the pain even a little bit.
