DOLLAR AD INSANITY!!!
As most of you know I have worked with No Frills for the past 7 years. It hasnt been a bad job, it has been pretty flexiable for school, I have met a lot of amazing people and it paid my way through university. Cant ask for much more, right? During these 7 years, I have worked at 4 stores and have had many responsibilities/roles. For the last 3 years or so, I have been a supervisor and a front end manager. Usually its awesome and so much better then working cash, but when it is busy, it can become very stressful and tiring. The dollar ad, which is currently running right now, are the 2 worst weeks of the year for staff. The aisles are packed with people, so bad that it can take 10 minutes to move from one end of the store to the next. However, I must say that the customers have been for the most part pleasnt and patient. I have only been sworen at once in the last 5 days, which is good for a regular week, never mind the dollar ad. But I have barley slept and I am very tired, so I am glad that I have the next 2 days off, because I have practically lived at the store since thursday. Can't wait for it to be over, so things can go back to normal. What ever that is.
