    Dont think its far fetched,but i would have just pulled the shelf edge label off and taken it to the till.
    I do find their Customer Services attitude,(lack of training?unlike any other supermarket i have ever known.Like maybe cs is just the same as any other dept.

    Perhaps there is a MOrrisons staff member who could enlighten us? i do find the staff lovely ,in my local one,as is often the case.Staff are cool cs and management -poo.

    The place is absolutely awful. The customers are mainly from the local council estate, the place stinks of crap and the staff uniform and in store decor is dreadful.

    AND WHATS WRONG WITH LIVING ON A COUNCIL ESTATE ?????????

    Absolutely nothing! In my opinion anyway; let's wait for BusinessStudent's response.

    All staff, including CS, (but also notably checkout and café) at Morrisons in Cambourne, Cambridge are lovely in my experience. Not spoken to many of the customers though, not that I see what difference where the customers come from makes to the overall shopping experience :confused:. Nor does it make the blindest bit of difference to me what the staff uniform looks like come to that.

  • Good Heavens!

    I honesty think IT DOES matter where the customers come from.

    Im sorry folks but the council estate by me Is an utter crap hole filled with the most vile people on this earth.
  • ......and you're a total snob i take it:confused:

    That statement is 100% Incorrect.

    When I go Into a shop I do NOT want to be in a shop with such vile customers, staff wearing 90s uniform and to be in a dirty store filled with empty coke cans! which customers have drunk BEFORE/without paying for them.

    I have a GNVQ in Retail and know what a good shop should offer. Even my retail tutors said Morrisons was AWFUL.

    Re the coke cans,retailers call it "grazing".All stores suffer from it,its hardly anything to be shocked about.
  • We dont buy meat from morissons any more the last lot of the chicken we bought which was £5.99 bogof was so off it stunk vile,:shocked: when I opened it and well within its date.
    Put me off for good. Always use the butcher now.

    also I have been quoted by an employee that cashiers will be disciplined if they tell customers that an item is on BOGOFF if only buying 1 product !!
    How tight is that - hardly encourages good service.
    Lots of times I have heard from different people how poorly the staff get treated by Managers - no wonder the staff are so grumpy. Customers can be extremely rude/abusive as well !
