Away from the store
Nice customers

Ridiculous delivery schedules
Management always want to blame the staff
No-one really gets listened to

Different places everyday variety

Extra drops to deliver and not always factored into the clock timings for delivery slots

Bad management , under staffed , no one you can talk to if you have problems , if you do nothing gets sorted . Communication is none existent. Poor pay , not getting your breaks . They insist you have breaks and you should take them utility never happens . They have posters up etc about you mentalk health and well being being but don't actually help you .

Getting out on the road .

More work put on you and less time for breaks you should be taking

Left to get on with job

Loading own van

Not stick in same place every day,getting to meet people and work outdoors.

Erratic break times,often set 30-60 mins after shift starts or before shift ends.30min dinner break rarely given at a time most would consider reasonable. Today I did 7.5hr shift without any breaks whatsoever. Mentioned to manager but no action taken.

Once loaded I am out on my own to make my own decisions with nobody on my back

Out on the road on my own

Seeing favouritism

Out and about

Being in store

Some of the people I work with

Managers expecting you to change shifts at the drop of a hat yet very hard to get your holidays

Time goes quick, feel like being own Boss

Permanent Weekend Work

Respect

The same thing every day

Been able to meet people and building trust with customers who I have delivered to for the past 5 years

If you work hard and are a team player it will be recognised by everyone.

Sometimes it’s non stop. But you will get your break. And you can just click out at the end of your shift. People won’t ask you to stay on often.

Freedom , meeting new people

Shift patterns

Being on your own

Weather

Being alone and no one telling me what to do

Rush hour traffic split loads and heavy totes

Good team

Amount of deliveries and the weight we lift

The team I work with are brilliant the section leaders actually care about you and are willing to help you if they are able to

The manager can’t run our department and we got sent a regional manager to help her out

Colleagues

Seriously understaffed
Lack of support

Other staff members are good fun gets me out and about different places

Heavy lifting cold weather late runs out due to not being picked on time vans breaking manager not sorting stuff when told about it

Hours are flxiable

Overload of work more and more expected

Driving

Management are disgusting to people in the way they communicate and address staff

Nobody nagging at me
I love driving

Finishing early on late shifts and having to wait until 10pm to clock out to get paid

Money

A lot of risk for not great pay

I work independly

Not having enough time for my lunch break

A bit of down time between customers

Management. Not doing the job I applied for originally.

Meeting customers and talking to a wide variety of people

Time limits, not enough time to take a break as you are catching up

Driving, hands off management after probationary period.

Inflexible and unreliable computerised system and equipment being frustrating to use, or obstructive to performing the task in hand.

Said equipment not being correctly set up, and staff not being proficient in its use causing more obstruction.

The drivers taking up the slack for poor performance in other departments.

Unpaid breaks add insult to injury on top of poor rate of pay in the first place.

Statistics over quality service, and no incentive for drivers who are genuinely responsible/don't damage vehicles/are team players.
