Going To #Woolies These Days - #FairbairnFilms on #YouTube
Shopping arrived from #woolworths . What I ordered was a punnet and what I received was a single date
@kerravonsen with #woolworths you get a series of SMSes, the most relevant of which is "next in line" which, for me, is a trigger to go and watch the delivery occur so I get to see this recurring pattern of stupidity in all its glory.
In #Australia, female #woolworths #homeshop drivers use a trolley and make one trip. The males ignore the trolley, spend ages inside the truck unpacking tubs and piling bags near the door. They load up like pack mules, struggle to carry the loads, break the paper bags and drop stuff, and usually need multiple trips. Easily take 3x longer than the women. It's a macho disease and it's no wonder delivery schedules slip. Probably all think "more efficient". We men can be such dimwits.
A new report finds groceries are getting more expensive at Woolworths but cheaper at Coles. The Choice price tracker shows the cost of shopping at Aldi barely changed between March and December 2024 in a quarterly assessment of 14 common items. #GroceryPrices #CostOfLiving #Woolworths #Coles #Aldi #PriceTracker #SupermarketWars #Australia

Sigh. My #Woolworths order is now 4 hours late.
After spending 45 minutes to talk to their “help line” - I was put on hold while 15 minutes later they came back with,”it should be there in around 2 more hours!”
6 hours later. I’ve just ordered pizza.
Tonight’s supposed dinner might end up as tomorrows - if the ingredients arrive.
Uh-oh! I think it might be my fault
I've been force-stopping the Woolworths Rewards app, after I discovered that it was generating literally hundreds of thousands of tracking attempts! Orders of magnitude worse than any other app on my phone!
So, the loss of the firehose of all my most personal data has obviously had serious consequences.

My #Woolworths #homedelivery came a half hour ago.
I ordered 4 brown onions. They sent me 4 HoneyDew melons.
I like a good HoneyDew but…
I notified Woolies, keep them they said & we’ll credit you for the missing onions.
Waiting on a #Woolworths #delivery. What time it actually gets here, decides what’s for #dinner tonight.
It’s a little like a “wheel of meal” game show.
“Your delivery arrived at 6:45 instead of 3:30 so for dinner tonight you’ll be eating….”
I don’t want to be doing a roast for tonight starting at, say 7:30.
My fallback will probably be some lamb mince on a burger roll.
Coles, Woolworths, Costco and Kmart have all backed an application to scrap overtime and penalty rates.
Peter Dutton has consistently voted to get rid of Sunday and public holidays penalty rates.
The opposition are trying to sneak this in through the back door while we’re all distracted.
A Liberal/National party government is NO FRIEND to the average Australian worker. Don’t let them fool you, speak up, post about this, join your union!

Woolworths sacks two workers and investigates dozens over alleged conduct during 17-day strike
Letters seen by Guardian Australia focus on alleged pickets on 26 November outside warehouses that were not then on strike
Woolworths are still cunts
Legal/Illegal Song*
It’s legal to join a trade union,
And to picket is one of your rights.
But don’t be offensive when scabs cross the line;
Be nice to the coppers, and keep this in mind:
To picket effectively, that is a crime
Worse than if you had murdered your mother! (1978)

A very small #Woolworths order arrived this morning at 5:25am!
I was awake but convincing my knees to work took a few minutes.
The order had some essential items in it - 2 bottles of #WorcestershireSauce!
Socialist Alternative [Australia] provided political cover for the bureaucracy, uttering not a word of criticism as the union isolated the dispute, denied workers strike pay and openly vowed to undercut their wage demands

Or ripping cutomers off?
Bulk refill, 2 x $4 = $8 for 1500ml
or
Concetrate, 3 x 500ml = 1500ml for $10
Who you gonna trust?
