It was a good place to work, but now you're a number on a spreadsheet
The good thingsGood crew of guys when I was there and good banter
The challengesNow a 40 hour week, one of the lowest paid roles in the industry, when the company has been posting record profits, pushing to pick more lines, and to work your days off, simply not enough staff to pick orders and fatigue sets in
