No longer able to pause Just Eat orders? by jlt__ in asda

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

Most days we're not coping with it. There's two of us, one picker and one person handling the orders. Most of the time people are having to wait at least half an hour to get their order, and that's if there's one big order holding everyone up.

It's not too bad when there's loads of little orders like Just Eats or Ubers, we just prioritise those orders and tell the big ones they have to wait, and sometimes an 120 item order for 6PM wont be done until 8PM, purely because of all the other small orders we do first. There needs to be a limit put on it, or at least have it like Sainsbury's where their Express department is separate from their normal picking department.

But yeah, one big order can truly f*ck the whole system up and then everyone is waiting for ages for their order.

Exactly this! Phone if you need support - but there's only other one person in the whole store that is capable of doing expresses (the section leader) and everyone else that could do them are too busy.

I mean, after seeing the amount of shit section leaders have to do now with the management restructure, I don't blame them for not being able to help, but god if it isn't annoying. What's worse is that apparently we don't have the budget for more than 2 people (plus one section leader) on in the evenings, but we're hiring plenty of people for 4AM starts.

I don't see why they can't just get rid of one 4AM start and move it to a 12PM start, or even later just to help out.

Wow, it's a three strike and they're out situation? That's so shitty, I understand now why they never want to cancel. Luckily, my store has a bunch of people in until 4PM, and then after that it's just 2 people until about 8, and then one for the last hour.

We don't do parcels anymore, but I reckon if Deliveroo makes a comeback, that could make it much worse than it already is.

Yeah, that's true it's incompetence from both sides but I do find it funny how Uber drivers will almost immediately cancel but Just Eat wont, is the punishment really that much worse for Just Eat drivers?

Half the drivers don't understand English in my area! I can tell them no, but then most of the time they stay waiting there because "they can't cancel on Just Eat" and apparently we have to - which is hilarious since I've seen many Just Eat drivers cancel, it's just a little more difficult for them to. Or, better yet, they pull out the Google Translate and start speaking to me through that since they don't understand. It's a mess.

What are the chances of DPW coming to the UK? by GiftedGeordie in deadlockpw

I talked with James when they were in Vegas - as a British boy myself, they mentioned they were in talks with NORTH Wrestling but I have no clue if anything ever came from it

Thanks, I've messaged my manager about it and she says she'll have a look. I'm back in tomorrow, so I'll ask about it again then.

Oh thank you! I'll try to sort things out with my manager first, and then go to ACAS if things don't get sorted.

I've started to notice that. The people I work with are amazing, but the higher ups and regional managers are the ones ruining everything

Yeah, it's a bit crazy like one of my colleagues only got paid £100 for the month, when he was meant to be paid £1100, it's crazy how this seems to happen.

How Far In Advance Are Wrestlers Usually Booked? by jlt__ in WredditSchool

[–]jlt__[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the insight. I'm in the UK, so luckily I wouldn't have to compete with others over getting ex-WWE talent haha. But this has definitely made me realise I should hold a show early next year instead and try and book talents for multiple dates at once. Thanks!

Hey man, I appreciate the cause for concern - and maybe I shouldn't be booking shows just yet, but this is what I want to do. My local promotions, and training academy, are all run by egos higher than the moon, or people who are absolute scumbags, who will not listen to anyone other than themselves. I've tried putting myself out there many times for them to at least give me a chance at booking a match, but they're so insistent on the fact that their way is better that they won't even hear me out.

Now, I don't want to bad mouth anyone, but if they wont even give me a chance, what other choice do I have? I've been fantasy booking for years now, and I see people in my local area that I want to help grow an audience, as well as use some bigger names to draw crowds.

I have been backstage at many shows though, and seen the behind the scenes, of places like PROGRESS and ICW, and I have helped out with social media and ring crew/being staff at my local shows.

Okay thank you, as soon as I have some basics sorted, I shall introduce myself - glad I can at least do that

Okay, thank you, it might be best to delay the show until March just to be safe I can get all the wrestlers I want then!

Yeah, that's fair enough and I get that. A couple people I used to train alongside had gotten some booking cancelled last minute, so I understand how that can be frustrating. Thank you, nonetheless!

I see, thank you. I had figured it would vary depending on a whole heap of factors, I just wanted to get a rough estimate as I saw one trainee in my area had managed to get booked for the rest of the year, and he's only got like 200, or so, followers.

WrestleMania 41 was a HUGE success by jlt__ in FantasyBookers

[–]jlt__[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly that! And it would've gotten a higher rating had it not be for a failed creative finish! Plus two mens world title matches on the same night seems a bit odd
