[QUOTE="pscarborough, post: 321311, member: 43571"] I also worked in large shop Tesco and I have been told to get back to sort of result. First one I had been working I had feeling the on set of of a hypo it was near to lunch time but had minimum foods. working in supermarket has its choice of food to eat. I picked a cheap bottle of pop took it to the check out the check out operator was on a break. my eyes could not see the screen ( self service til) the security of ice ask me if was alight with answer was no I need to get some sugar down me as I am diabetic. I struggled again to pay for the pop. and told the guard I come back to pay for it. I had lunch and recovered before my lunch was finished I was asked to go back to work I told the manger that I had to pay for some pop and do it later later got to 7am and I was still working 7.15 and the officer cam up and asked me to go the office where they accused me of shop lifting. The union was no good as he could not understand the condition and was of no use as he concluded with the manger as he wanted to be promoted. The only thing I can say is that the company are not employing people any more but machines. machines will break down but they are to be used until they are of no use. then disposed of when totally no use.
