Going back to work- politics were in play yesterday as I was invited to an impromptu xmas lunch an hour before they were going Apparently they could not find me the previous day when it was being arranged They seemed surprised when I declined


I am walking away with my head held high, to do list etc will be left and my staff paid correctly That boss told me that any HR role is really a waste of money Only sales people really matter


Yes its time to go


Really helps to see it in black and white Thanks

what a short sighted comment regarding only sales staff matter...

they need paying too.....

it's the back room people that allow the front of house ones to flourish IMO.
Treat everyone as you wish to be treated yourself...my dad always said....that boss could learn a thing or two.

Does anyone else get a black box appear where the reciept picture is meant to be when trying to take a picture of a receipt on COS?

I have to take about 10 pictures before it will actually show my receipt in the box. Just wondered if anyone knew why really :cool:

That's lovely to hear! I am so glad for you. I'd love to be able to work less, but my job, which I love, doesn't work like that. Go well!

some advice from the Waities shoppers please....

my conditional spends include £10 wys £50 on wine,can I combine that with the conditional spend of £10 wys £50 which they have also sent....if you can I think it may be worth a visit.

I've also got the normal £6 off £30 which seems to go well with 2 of the £15 meal deals so W may figure in my shopping this year.
