Back to Asda

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

The people

Rain and snow

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

Easy flexibility and a great job to progress within the company

Nothing I love this job

Independent for most of the day

Having shift pattern changed

Hours are flxiable

Overload of work more and more expected

On your own

Not enough breaks

Driving

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

Freedom
Seeing the world
Working on my own
Being my own boss on the road
Taking my break when I see fit
Not relying on anybody
Time doesn’t drag
Managing my own time schedule
Listening to my own music
Nobody nagging at me
I love driving

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

Sometimes big gaps in deliveries and having to wait around for timeslots

No clocking in machine in home shopping pod, having to always clock in/out upstairs in store

Defects not getting fixed on vans quickly

Work on own

Heavy loads,
Low pay

Flexibility
Short shifts
Regular days off

Lack of equipment,

No pressure or stress.

Money

The hours I work fits in with family life

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.

Decent van to drive

Late out due to orders not being ready
Working till 10 every night

Local routes, no traffic, delivering customers online grocery shopping.

Lots of Stairs, unhelpful management, unhelpful customer service team at head office if theres a problem.

Management are clueless also

Meeting people on deliverys

Explaining the lack of care to the customer

Meeting customers en route

Management who don't care !.

Being out and about

Equipment (sat navs) unreliability

The hours

When vans aren't ready in a morning it makes us late

There's not a lot of stress

We're often understaffed
