Sainsburys - Making Life Taste Gay and Retarded

Sainsburys supermarkets are HUUGGGEEE steaming piles of shite!!!!! I hate them. HATE THEM DAMMIT!!

There is a reason for my flaming. You see, this year was goin to be my first ever Global Gathering. Not only that, but my first time at any Godskitchen-type event, and being 19, I think i've waited long enough. So as you can imagine, I was looking forward to it.

We'd been planning on going for ages. I was gonna meet some mates from uni and we'd all go to GG. I was even going to meet a guy who came all the way from IRELAND!

Being as skint as uni students are, I thought "Well, i'd better get a job to pay for it". So off I trundle to the local Sainsbury's, as suggested by a mate who works there during holidays. I gladly went (albeit hungover) to my interview and left a good impression, as you do. A week later they rung me up and told when I was starting.

GG was now only two weeks away, so to see just how flexible their 'flexible contracts' were, I asked for the saturday off work. This should have been fine with them, as my contract says I should work 8 hours a week, and I was doing 39 a week.

But, Pat Barret, who shall remain nameless, decided he couldn't give me the time off work, and out of 400 employees there was nobody to cover for me either. And if I didn't show up on the saturday i'd be fired. So, as disappointed as I was, I thought i'd better not go to GG for the sake of keeping my job and being able to pay off my debts.

So I went fuming into work, as miserable as you like, thinking of you lot having the time of your lives, and I was SOOOOOOO gutted.

Just to take the p*ss, that very day, 'nameless' came up to me and said that because they'd hired to many staff recently, he'd have to cut down my hours to 8 a week.... so all along I could've gone to GG but I didnt coz of some gay manager who cant do his job properly!!! I've never been so p*ssed off

I'm thnking of quitting coz they've shat all over me - what d'ya reckon???

Yea, quit. Its only 8 hours a week anyway, and I can't imagine the money being that good anyway, or the job satisfaction for that matter.

LOL!! Yeah, I wish I had. Wouldnt surprise me if he already had a mullet up his arse, he certainly walks about like something untoward has found its way up there.... but then I dont care really.

Well cheers peeps, feel better now. Quitting... NOW

LOL! I've got a couple of mates who work there and they've just about had enough of the place too. I'll get one of them to leave a 'present' in the tills...

Saw a training video where a Sainsbury's was buning to the ground - best bit of the job.

We should so start a revenge thread, hehe
