  • Those supermarket awards are a load of bullcrap too. Which say Aldi is best, Grocer say Asda is cheapest, etc etc. LOL.

    Perhaps the OP should set up an online petition on the gov website for Aldi to stop taking credit cards in its Berwick store (or allow them to be used in all its other English stores). It is clearly discrimination against those people who can't do their shopping in Berwick

    From memory, he only needs to find 9,999 other like-minded numpties and it has to be discussed in parliament.

    Do you have link please ?
  • In my experience it isn't your own toes that are a problem - more your mate stood on the other side of a 2M High x 1.2Mwide pallet...

    That would mean everyone in the work place has to wear safety shoes rather than just the pallet truck operator as per the original argument.

    How would I manage to lower the pallet onto my toes seeing as I'm standing behind it.

    A few years ago a supermarket worker was trapped by a pallet of chocolate

    His cries were ignored by staff and colleagues for 30 minutes, he kept shouting "the milky bars are on me" !

    Dint forget the notice on the shop door informing customers they need safety footwear before they enter the store, in case the racers on the pallet trucks lose their loads while racing around the aisles

    Yes and it should be a disciplinary matter if staff use equipment without adequate safety training and safety equipment

    Thank you for pointing this out to me.

    I will contact Aldi about this and I'll mention your NEBOSH qualifications.
