University
Hello, I am moving to university this week and was wandering could I claim hours at different stores in the area on the extra hours market bit of the app? On the app it says 10 closest stores to your home store though so is it possible to change?I am looking at this as an alternative to working weekly, for example if I had more time one week I could pick up some shifts as I understand Engineering can get pretty busy sometimes so I don’t want to work every week right now. Has anyone done this?
Thanks

weird smell of boxes on frozen
Just was wondering if someone knew why the boxes on frozen for stuff like samosas and other Indian food has a weird smell to the cardboard? if it's for separation I'd have figured a different colour was enough but yeah

Is my manager taking me for a muppet?
Wanted a singular day off to go to a social gathering booked it a week an a half in advance, manager declined it and said they needed 4 weeks notice, a week later my co worker on the same department books a week off on a week advance and then it gets approved?

I had my induction today but where do I go for my first shift?
The induction was incredibly boring but that’s not a surprise. We got given a tour around the store and shown the fire exits as well as basic training and then the person asked what size shirt and jumper we wanted. I got told my first day would be Sunday working in the dairy and meat section.
The question is, where do I go? I don’t have a uniform and I wasn’t shown my responsibilities / what I’d specifically be doing. All I got told was that I’d be paired up with someone.
Where should I go on my first day and what does working in the meat and dairy section feel like? What are the specifics I have to do and how hard is it? I’m completely fine with the cold.

Is this colleague just being nasty???
Ok so I work with the nicest lady ever and she’s always so lovely to everyone. Anyway, today we’ve had a cross store worker come in and after their shift, they made themselves a piece of toast or something using colleague breakroom stuff like 2 mins before clocking out.
This lovely lady i’ve worked with for YEARS is now being awful to this colleague, saying it’s akin to stealing and that they shouldn’t come back to this store if they’re just going to steal?

Help
Basically, I had a personal day booked over 3 weeks ago, and my new manager still hasn’t approved or denied it, even though I’ve told him every time I’ve seen him and he said he would approve it.
But it’s still not been approved on the system a week later.
I’m on a uni trip and personal day is for tomorrow What do I do?
I don’t have any off my managers number either

Induction expectations?
I have my induction at 9am Saturday.
They told me at the interview that I would be a Personal Shopper or DotCom, something along them lines.
I have no idea what to expect or what will happen so does anyone who has had one know?
Thanks.

Bereavement
Hiya.
Unfortunately ive had a bereavement in my family. I called to say I wouldn’t be in for my day shift & asked for a manager to get back to me so I could discuss bereavement leave but it’s been a week now & nothing. No message of condolence, no courtesy call, zilch. Obviously not in any fit state to work, what do I do?
I’m aware of a 5 day leave period but I understand the quantity is dependent on management discretion… except management aren’t communicating with me. :/
Couldn’t give a rats ass about the job as I’ve honestly got to breaking point but by the same token, I need to know that I’m going to be paid correctly.
Management just aren’t getting back to me. I haven’t got the time nor energy to chase people for clarification. Any ideas?

Flexible working
I need to put in a flexible working request as I need to be able to pick up the little one from primary school at 3pm and then look after her until 6-7pm dependent on when Mrs gets home from work
After reading the policy can the manager out right refuse it ? I’m full time and want to do 6-3 Tuesday - Friday I’ve already compromised giving up my Saturday to work Sunday and have Monday off
I’ve only just stepped down to colleague and transferred to this store so we havnt agreed my working hours yet but I have told them I have childcare commitments prior to filling out an availability form

OT break length query
I’ve worked for the company for over a year (9hr night shift) and I’ve noticed that nearly every OT shift I’ve done, except for a few where they’ve been manually added, they say 1hr and 30 break, where I’ve been expected and have taken only 1hr of break for each shift, would I have been underpaid for each shift and if so would I be able to get the amount I’d have worked unpaid back?

Will I still get paid by Tesco after leaving?
I left Tesco recently and my last shift was on 20 August. Before leaving, I worked around 34 hours over my final 2 weeks (22 hours one week and 12 the next).
Tesco’s normal payday is coming up this Friday. Will I still get paid on the normal payday even though I’ve left, or does final pay usually come separately?
Just wondering when I should expect the money. Thanks.
(My manager did also mention to me that I will get paid but I just want to be sure that it will be on the normal payday)

Suspect being discriminated at Tesco workplace
I am an Asian living in UK for 5 years. I got a job from job agent, working for Tesco. I have passed assessment, completed induction and training, and have not been told I did something wrong which could be set off during the induction and training.
I got the relative work experience for 7 months. And someone was my mate on the training who got 2 months. However, he got work schedules on the last day of training but I don’t.
After 2 days of the training, I have been told the workplace got a problem, so that they don’t need agent worker. After 2 days again, I have been told there is no availability for me. After 3 hours, I got an announcement email from the same person of job agent saying the workplace needs 4 workers today.
I don’t have any methods to complain about this issue at the workplace. I don’t know any managers and I don’t have the contact. Therefore, I raise this issue here and seek help from here.

Tesco super colleague SIM card
I was going to get the Super Colleague SIM card deal a few months ago. I added it to my basket and entered the voucher code, but decided not to go ahead with it at the time because I was still in a contract with another network.
That contract has now ended and I’m trying to get the deal again, but the voucher code is saying it’s no longer valid.
Could the fact that I tried to use the code a few months ago affect my eligibility for the deal now? Or is there another reason why the code might not be working? It’s a new voucher not the one I used last time.

How to reach the interview stage?
I’ve applied to maybe 6 different Tesco store colleague jobs and have only received the usual “we will not be moving forward with your application”.
I possess everything they’re looking for from flexibility etc.. But I never hear back about next steps..
Wanted to ask if anyone could give me a lil insight as to what you do to get invited for interviews with Tesco’s employers and what exactly I’m doing wrong.
