You really don't

Stacking shelves on a night shift is soul destroying.

No, I like that sort of thing.

I like being behind the scenes running things rather than on the front line having to deal with annoying customers and stuff.

I thought my people skills were poor, but when I got a job in retail in an environment I actually enjoyed (sports) they really came out.

I bought the orange box today

Where do you work?

You don't exactly need people skills to work at McDonalds.

'Can I take your order please?'
'Here you go'
'Get me a big mac meal!'
'Next please'

I got a job at Tesco when I was 18. I was sort of like you, didn't really like public interaction/dealing with customers etc. But if you're just a shelf stacker working in the aisles then 90% of customer interaction will be then asking you where a product is which is easy to deal with (once you learn where everything is) and eats up time. If you are working night shift, then even a 6 hour shift lasts an eternity. I did one, and never wanted to do another. The pay is a little better for night shift though, so there's pros and cons for each.

Sounds like the best option for you is a daytime warehouse job in a big supermarket. I did a bit of that too, along with security, and it's not bad, just taking in deliveries and shit.

I guess so, I reckon I lack the skills to do that tbh.

Need to go to the shops but I have a dangerously low level of motivation.

Big few weeks for welsh sport, Cleverly fight, Cardiff off to wembley, speeds memorial & the egg playing England & could claim the 6 nations

Cam, see if there are any Operations jobs at an M&S nearby. They still train you on how to use a till, all the legal stuff regarding dealing with customers, etc. but after that it's 95% behind the scenes.

I'd have stayed on and done that if I could, but a) there weren't any jobs there at the time and b) I can't lift anything heavy because I'm pathetic.

Nice, I'll have a look now, thanks for the advice guys.


I like how this started from Bent complaining about needing a job.

No need to tell us that. We figured.

Wow, there's a nice vacancy for a 'Visual Regional Window Stylist'

Prepare for the papers.

I've got to complete these two workbooks in my own time to get my 'stars' at Maccy Ds. Effort. Quite easy though.

Kept meaning to ask, What was Ravel Morrison's tweet?

Cam, I work at McDonalds. It's pretty easy. Go for it!

What's the deal with McDoanld's in terms of benefits? i.e. do you get a free meal every shift? Do you get more benefits? Or is it completely different?

Crump do you start dumb topics on break?

I've got an apprenticeship now which I don't enjoy, worked in a small independant sports shop before that. Looking back it was a bit dodgy, quite a few times I was left alone in the shop when I was only 15. If I was a cunt id've had my hands in the till.

Did used to have a couple of quid out occasionally for a drink though.


Jela - You get a free staff meal every shift yeah.

Free meal every shift on your break, point system, e.g: 10 hour shift: 6 points. Big Mac: 2 points, Fries: 1 point, McFlurry: 1 point, Soft drink: 1 point etc etc

I get employee discount, a Big Mac meal would cost me £2.80

No. I watch TV and eat.

Apparently Joey Barton has leaked the new England shirt on twitter. Do you think this is real?
Looks shit!

I'm working Friday, i need to sort my hours out though.

When I worked at Del Taco I got like a 40 cent discount, and it was just for me, and only during work hours.

God I hated that job, spent more of my time staring at my manager's massive bum.
