Second to last day at Tesco

Woo, only one more Saturday left after tomorrow and I am free of Tesco! Freedoooooooooooom!

I’ve had a good pretty good decent 2 years with the company; although, there have been numerous lots of mishaps. I still like the company and defend it for certain practices, but I had to leave after all the problems with my transfer and I have far too much work to do for University. On the other hand, I seem to have been offered an opportunity by the YHA to help them with SQL (which I suck at.)

1. After moving store, they messed up my payments resulting in no pay for 4 months!

2. My privelige card did not work for the same 4 months… grr!

3. They still haven’t refunded me for travel for an interview. Let me tell you travelling to Welwyn Garden City by train is a pain! You can’t get a return from anywhere but London, as you can’t use the return ticket from anytime between 1pm and 8pm. So you are forced into buying two singles, for me that amounted to £35 each way. Note to Tesco, give me my £70!!!

4. Twice missed out on stock bonuses. First time round because I had worked for 11 months, and not 12, on the cut off date; the second was — again — due to the bloody 4 months in limbo!

5. They fucked up my pay and overpaid me, then took the money back (Well no-one ever gets away with that, do they?)

6. I don’t think they paid me for any of my overtime during my 4 months in limbo.

7. They thought I had ‘quit’ when I had actually swapped store.

So goodbye Tesco!

Why did I say I would work overtime?

Last day and the big football weekend

I managed to post every day last month!
