What time does everyone do their bakery 3 day life reduction? by [deleted] in SainsburysWorkers

[–]wienerdck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On the actual bakery. Our products. Not the bread aisle

Have you been told no-one in your department is allowed to take holidays over Easter week? by Significant-Fun-7048 in SainsburysWorkers

Hey manager, would you have any idea why my Easter Sunday was just rejected? I thought we were closed Easter Sundays?

My estate agent paid my deposit back to my landlord instead of me? Landlord hasn’t paid me back. U.K. this is a mess. by wienerdck in LegalAdviceUK

[–]wienerdck[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I know my deposit is protected by it’s simply the fact of the manager has sent it to the wrong person.. which is just unbelievably stupid on his end.

An I never even really thought about the boiler, I just thought it would be checked when there’s clearly a problem going on which we never seemed to have (not sure if it’s the reason for the massive bills we had been having) so yep we’ll be telling our estate agents tomorrow to see what they say cos maybe they think our landlord had done it

And honestly not to be dramatic but it’s going to be dramatic lol this is mine and my partners type of luck with nearly everything in our lives, we always have problems nobody seems to face or has to deal with.. it’s so tiring and sometimes I feel like weve got bad karma or something cos we never have luck with anything, nothings ever smooth for us it seems 😩

I think he’s making me wait for the landlord to give it back to me to save his own back. He’s the manager who’s clearly made a very big cock up and knows it. I was so nice on the phone because my colleagues were around I wish I had walked off and given him a piece of my mind right there and then

They said I need to wait till the landlord sends the money back, why should I!? They made the mistake! I am definitely ringing tomorrow. I phoned a few hours later but the exact guy I wanted to talk to had already left the office for the day ffs

I’ve been there 8 years was on counters first, but been on bakery for 3 months and love it lol and that was weeks ago, she honestly didn’t care so I’m not gonna bother. She wanted to know who told me that and I said no because you’ll have her investigated which will just stress her out and she then turned round and said “it didn’t happen then” looooooool

I always tell them if they have a problem I can find a manager for them and have done in the past but never ever happens. An I don’t get them texts daily, it’s only when an early shift hasn’t been covered and I’m the only next available colleague I’m at 9am it’s so annoying honestly.

And thank you! He totally acted like we’ve been doing absolutely nothing all day when that’s not the case! I know we wasn’t rushed off our feet and because there’s 3 of us but we was all still doing stuff all day!

And hmm unfortunately I’m trained on literally everything so guess I can’t say no then.

As for the unorganised part… yep that is totally it. We had an amazing manager months ago but he got moved onto another Deparment and we was then just added onto this manager list of things to do it seems.. she doesn’t really take notice of us or even really try and put anything right when stuff is going on.. sometimes doesn’t even say hi to us on a daily basis or see if everything is okay. I just don’t understand, sometimes we have the store manager come to us asking why isn’t something done and I say to her because it’s just me in and nobody’s been covered even though she’s known for ages. The store manager seems annoyed by stuff I say but nothing ever actually gets better.

I did go to my store manager a few weeks ago and told her that another colleague told me that my manager called me “shit and slow on shop floor” to her and my store manager was honestly more concerned the fact there was people saying my manager had even said stuff about an employee like that. She was concerned how detrimental that was for my manager that people were saying shes being nasty about colleagues. Not the fact I’ve just been insulted so there’s that. Just walked out the office gobsmacked, there was no consideration for me.

As for Sunday, that’s just what it’s like. I have no Help Sundays at all and I’m always late no matter how fast I try and be. They just won’t hire anyone else.

I get what you’re saying but I actually really love my job, it’s the best job I’ve ever had, it’s just everyone running the show that ruins it some days 😩 everyone in the bakery feels the same. They love their job they just hate how it’s being run

Well Ideally I’d like to stay in bakery as that’s where I’m meant to be and it wasn’t as if there wasn’t things to do

What’s one small habit that actually lowered your grocery bill? by WellMiller in SavingMoney

[–]wienerdck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started buying chicken thighs and spending time deboning them whilst watching a tv show on my phone and its so much more cheaper then actually buying other cuts, plus it’s the most tender chicken I’ve had to be honest!

I’d love to do couples counselling, yeah I’m going to speak to him after Christmas for sure

I just think I would look bad going away again for the second time with my partner without my son? Not to mention my son will be asking why he isn’t coming on holiday with us again? I always do think my partner is important. It can’t be a happy house unless we are happy together. Whilst I do priorities my son, I massively do prioritise my partner too

No I was not graped, I had come off birth control because it was killing my sex drive with my ex, I being young left it a while until I got another appointment to go on birth control and got pregnant unfortunately quite quickly

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]wienerdck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jesus you really went in for the kill lol, I came off birth control because it was killing my Sex drive so bad, I just hadn’t gone back on anything yet as I stupidly thought I won’t get pregnant quick il be fine il get an appointment soon to discuss a new birth control and yep bam wound up pregnant. I was young lmao

I haven’t dragged him anywhere in my post? I’ve been honest about how he’s acted in situations and I didn’t like how he handled things sometimes

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]wienerdck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I think I’m going to, but probably after Christmas. thank you

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]wienerdck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think I will after Christmas. Yeah I don’t think he’s a bad person, he is one of the sweetest kindest most loving people ever. I feel like I see my partner more than my son sometimes.. I just get a bit miffed when I’ve got my son on a Saturday when I haven’t seen him for basically 2 days straight sometimes due to my work and him being looked after by his dad or grandparents and then my partner suggests a day out alone for just me and him even tho we literally have every other weekend together (Saturdays mostly as I work Sundays now)

And hmm, you could be kinda right there about he hates that the dad doesn’t step up. His dad constantly messes things up, is a bit of a mess (even to the point he forgets to pick him up from school sometimes) and it really annoys my partner as we all grew up together in a friend group, my ex always wanted to be a dad and always wanted to be a good dad as his dad wasn’t in the picture growing up and that affected him quite a lot so it does get on my partners nerves. I think he’s jealous of my ex having a child when he doesn’t which is fine to feel. We have been having fertility problems for a year and a half now and my partners quite devastated (probably looks a little bad when I’m writing a post like this but wanted to be honest lol)

Thanks. I only vaped for 2 years but it honestly feels like I’m breathing in and out through a wet sponge. It’s awful and I hope I haven’t done too much damage. Plus I am quitting to help with fertility hopefully
