Worked for Sainsbury’s Deepdale store in the early to mid 1990s. I remember the time I accidentally demolished a wine rack on the shop floor with an Lshape and wine bottles came down and smashed on the floor. I heard there was a red stain on the floor where the incident happened. I was actually shaking with fear of getting the sack or fined. The management were ok about it as it was an accident. I hear that people still about to this day. It would have happened around 1994/95 ish.

I love how it's down to a bunch of higher ups (who probably haven't stocked a shelf a day in their life) what the nation gets to eat. Like surely you would use a test panel of various age ranges, different cultural backgrounds and lifestyle choices. But nope let's use Amanda age 29 from Tunbridge wells who got this job through a degree and the most exciting thing she's ever eaten is beef madras 😂

[@elizabethelliott3175]

There's nothing wrong with the pastry! It's lovely! It's not too big - isn't it a good thing if it's a lot to eat? How is this a problem?

[@SkavenUK]

4:00 her face is literally what all the managers are thinking lol

[@paulgilliland2992]

You’d think they might have called the “engineers” in before the big rush . Just in case the gas was leaking and also test the compressors and filters . But no sat on their backsides all winter.

[@omgdisfunny4852]

you can contact engineers and higher management all you want, they wont send anyone over

[@karincartwright8752]

Sheesh! You cut off the finish? Just before telling us if they met the goal???? :(

[@Hassanelogs]

That's reason I wonder any of the food they make have no herbs in it.

[@hannahsutton2233]

Well at least they was prepared for the pandemic with the extra toilet roll they bought lol

[@suzukidaniel1396]

Working in the Penzance cafe upstairs would be nice with views overlooking St Michaels Mount on the balcony. Interesting which distribution Cornwall gets the stock from. Bristol is a long journey especially right down to Helston, Truro and Penzance. Sainsbury's has another large distribution in Yorkshire which tends to cover areas from Nottinghamshire to Northumberland.

[@MrMRW14]

It’s not rocket science people. Just put all the Cornish stuff in one area. Cornish Corner. There done it for you

Because that'd be to simple

[@1969Kismet]

It cuts off before the end. Great.

[@voicezful]

The reason they have the celery in a plastic bag is to stop the celery from being contaminated by every customer holding it up and mentioning it is ridiculous for Sainsbury's to put the celery in a plastic bag.

[@gl1tcheddatabase270]

So why can carrots be loose. Why can tomatos be loose. Why can potatoes be loose. Why can peppers be loose. Why can parsnips be loose...the list goes on.

[@Sebastian-jk9kk]

Normal people wash their fruits and veg before they eat them.

[@thejsph]

Celery is covered in soil and pesticides, you’re meant to wash them so no point in bag

did they reach their 5 per cent targets?

Yeah I need to know now too why would they just cut it off their like that lol

[@voicezful]

This is such crap, of course the consumer magazine writers are going to say the Christmas veggie food is good. It's a freebie. Would it not be better inviting in a few customers for lunch, even better send them the food and follow up with a service call.

[@siobhanblake3413]

The vegan food looks really nice

[@MrMRW14]

I’d never get my food delivered by people who give me substitutes. Rather get it myself. It’s useless and can wreck a whole days plans

What's the bettings that online managers trainers arent steel caps. Or any of them for that matter going around that warehouse

[@starbuckscoffee8521]

You don’t need steel toe capped boots to be in a warehouse

[@gl1tcheddatabase270]

@@starbuckscoffee8521 just because you don't need them doesn't mean you shouldn't wear them. An environment like that, it's definitely going to be ideal because there is going to be heavy stuff that in warehouse that toes won't like. I'm sure there was a reason I said about the boots but I don't remember why seeing as this was from 6 months ago

[@LeviJamesRE]

Your not supposed to wear them in warehouses you thicko!! Learn!! If the forklift runs over toes it can bend the steel caps down and chop all toes off causing mass bleeding. Thicko. It's instant dismissal at Morrisons if your caught wearing them for that reason. Educate before you post dipshit comments

[@gl1tcheddatabase270]

@@LeviJamesRE I worked at Wickes for 6 years and we had to wear steel toe boots on the shop floor and warehouse/yard. No exceptions. With the strict rules that are in place with the forklift, it should be nye on impossible to get your feet run over because you HAD to be 2 metres or more from the forklift at any given time. But steel boots were still needed because of heavy products that could be dropped onto your toes....thicko

[@LeviJamesRE]

@@gl1tcheddatabase270 yeah like you deliberately oh I'll walk next to the fork lift and get your feet runover ... use your brain it's called an accident for a reason.

[@RiverDanube]

The vegetarian muck looked awful and overmanufactured. Pretending to be meat is weird.

[@CeravvvEgan]

So weird how meat is shaped into nuggets and dinosaurs and shaped into patties and sausages, covered in marinades, herbs and spices. Strange that people who eat dead bodies don’t just rip raw pieces off the carcass with their claws and massive canines, like lions.

[@voicezful]

The reason there is a shortage of toilet rolls in the UK is down to Vegans.

[@tracik1277]

Oh, I didn’t realise they could eat toilet rolls.

So, are plants not natural and do they always taste bad? The only mistake with the food was that he hadn't seasoned it enough.

[@DaveBeaven-tx2tp]

Vegan food is processed rubbish. No matter if it’s Sainsbury’s or Tesco it’s all processed garbage promoted by the WEF. Stick to fresh food. At least you will know what’s going into your food.

They hire people based on their skill not their skin colour. Your comment highlighting the colour of people’s skin is the only problem here

[@craftyscotsman8970]

Diversity is a big thing in the UK and we have many laws against discrimination in employment. The colour of someones skin is irrelevant and so is the gender. They are not going to fire a white person just so they can hire a POC to look more diverse. New roles would consider anyone from any background, but at the end of the day, jobs are based on experience and merit, and not the colour or gender of a person. Some positions were specifically made to hire people from diverse backgrounds to appear more "diverse" and to me, this is the result of ridiculous comments from people like you.

[@lafillenoir]

Agreed, the lack of diversity in the head office was blindingly white
