    1.5

    Kitchen assistant at Budgens, July 2021

  • Best thing

    Working in a smaller store with a small team makes it have a family aspect. Everyone i work with is really lovely, and i was made to feel very welcomed.

    Worst thing

    Though i love the smaller staff amount it can be difficult if you’re ever unwell. Some shifts only two people are on to work and if someone phones in sick it’s mayhem! You’re made to feel as though you shouldn’t phone in sick. Also, i work full time hours sometimes despite only being contracted 16, theyre unstaffed and you’re expected to have a lot of responsibility! It can be a rush, too many things to do and not enough people!
