HI MATE i see your point:thumbup1: but keep clean as it with be pulled thanks jon

 

Apologies watching irish baby stuff on tv making me cross

 

UPSUM robbing bar stewards - lots of small businesses have suffered huge ( comparitively ) losses for them to build their empire .......

 

Lots of staff on zero hours minimum wage contracts ........

 

But most supermarkets operating to same low ethical "standards"

 

Also some rumors of very very dodgy planning applications, do you remember professional hit on a tesco planning agent few years ago?

 

And lady Porter doing dodgy election stuff back in the 80's - is she still wanted person living abroad?

Expensive place to shop. Staff normally have a serious bad attitude you find a pile of them in a corner having a power meeting and ask for help they look at you like dirt. Always long queues at least 4 deep at ours. Offers always sold out. I do 2000 miles a week you wont find their fuel any where near my vehicles no matter how cheap.

Aldi twice the quality and half the price.

I hate Tesco with a passion.

I was told of a vegetable grower who was approached by Tescos to grow carrots for a perticular contract.

A fair price was offered if he installed a very expensive sorting/washing/packaging plant.

He took the contract, and installed the plant on the back of a swingeng(to him )loan.

Tesco's then "took another look" at the contract and revised their price sharply downwards.

Ouch!

Plus (but this was merely hearsay) a veg supplier who was found to be supplying Lidl or Aldi with the produce that did not meet Tesco's contract specs.

And was bluntly told "them or us".

Nice people.

But then Lidl are apparently simply BRUTAL in their treatment of managment trainee staff.

Good money for VERY long/unlimited hours AND the sales targets are kept moving.

The "suits" fly in once a month, and it is apparently not a pleasent experience answering to them.

cheers
