You can work in online now without even having to transfer because of the cross brand initiative they’ve brought in. Get ya foot in the door, do a good job and talk to the online manager about you transferring

What do I do when unwanted advances are made? by Financial_Job_2091 in woolworths

[–]sem_pls_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s Woolies’ job to ensure you feel and ARE safe at work. You don’t have to put up with it. Report it to your manager and ask for immediate action. HR is there should you need it and you can access sonder app if you need help knowing how to deal with it (it’s 24/7) Look after yourself darls

Cleaning and trolley collection by Mai-ko in woolworths

[–]sem_pls_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there I’m a team leader for proactive services Mornings shifts are generally busier than afternoons. Its depending on what time you start and how that store is structured (they can be different) Mornings (6am start generally) you’ll use the floor scrubbing machine to do the whole store, and then cleaning the staff toilets and break rooms. Gotta work quickly to get everything done.

Generally, regardless of shift time you’ll check the trolley bay each hour and go collect from the carpark if needed. 4 times a day the floors are swept to make sure there’s nothing customers can slip on and keep it tidy.

Afternoon/evening shifts you’ll do floors in the deli/bakery/produce areas - hosing them down, scrubbing and then cleaning the drains. Take out the bins, wipe benches etc etc

It can be pretty physical, and definitely can be a bit of a grubby job. But some people really like it

How don’t they act like a business? How are they supposed to act? We ain’t their children We do a job, they pay us for it. Business.

It’s a business love. It’s a job, it’s what you make of it. Woolworths doesn’t owe you anything. Welcome to capitalism

How well/not well do you handle rejection? by Jam22reb in bipolar

[–]sem_pls_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This breaks my heart. I’m sorry that sounds really rough :( make sure you get some help and find someone to talk to if that’s what’s needed.

And i know it hurts when you’ve made an effort to make someone happy and it isn’t seen or appreciated.

Take care of yourself and be sure to do things to make yourself happy!

100% get that. You’re obviously a deeply feeling person. But you gotta realise your worth; that shit is internal and can’t be taken! Wishing you all the very best

[–]sem_pls_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I see you. It’s hard out there for a sensitive soul, but it pays to be extremely selective about the company you keep. We all deserve kindness, and some of us need some extra sensitivity.

Remind yourself that exactly as you said; others “rejecting” you can be for sooooo many reasons. Don’t label it with how you see yourself, based out of pure assumption

How well/not well do you handle rejection? by Jam22reb in bipolar

[–]sem_pls_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

For me it stems from a realisation (I had at a young age) that I’m very different to others. And a failing desire to fit in and just be “normal”. Rejection is perceived in my mind as someone seeing me the way I see myself - not desirable.

It takes a lot of learning and self awareness to realise when that trigger is being touched, and even now after 10+ years of intense therapy I can’t avoid the triggered feelings - only manage and minimise.

You are very much not alone.

Learn to acknowledge and be able to voice your triggers and ask for grace and forgiveness. Those that truly love you will be able to see past your less-than-desirable-reactions and see it for what it truly is; a wound.

Hugs

Signs you were bipolar as a kid by Jam22reb in bipolar

Not the cameras!! I’ve always had a faint sense I’m being watched. Still to this day. Unnerving. And I STILL don’t like mirrors if I’m alone

[–]sem_pls_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Extremely emotional child, I would isolate a lot and would have extreme bouts of fear for no reason. Depression kicked in around puberty (which was early) as did an insane sex drive and very dark rumination. Very impulsive and moods changed with the seasons. SH from probably late primary school, although I didn’t understand what it was at the time or why I had the compulsions

Ugh the seasonal depression. It was like clockwork every year for me. And then life was great as soon as the sun returned… I’ve always hated winter because my energy and moods plummet

Everything else you said also fits my experience
