Working at Sainsbury's to fund me through collegeOn my first day I timidly asked the Manager if I could be assigned Bakery or something like that (because as a veggie I was dreading working with slabs of dead animal). She asked me why and then with an evil glint in her eye, said 'We can put you anywhere we like.' So I spent two months working on the deli up to my elbows in deceased pig before I could take it no more and walked out. To this day I mutter 'bastards' whenever I see one of their stores.

Re: Argh!I think they breed the management like that. I worked in one of the only pharmacies in the sainsbury's group at the time, and got signed into my contract that I would only work on pharmacy. ahh, the evil looks I would get when they couldn't put me on checkouts.
Do what I do. pop into your old sainsbury's, and if you see the manager, then fill out a complaint form about them and send it to head office :)
