I'd hazard a guess that 90% of the time I've been to this local store, at least one member of the staff is yapping on their mobile phone to their friends or sending texts.
Most of the time there's only 1 person on the counter (Therefore a long queue) and the rest are standing around the store talking to one another about the latest movie girl/boyfriend or other nonense.
Very rarely do i ever see a few of the staff there, wear the proper issued tesco's uniforms, often wearing shirts half done up, without any ties etc.
One of the female staff members has a bright pink mohawk style hair cut and wears a THICK gold chain around her neck
One of the guys there has his shirt unbuttoned about half way down, with yet another thick gold chain around the neck
Another guy only ever speaks to people to say the amount, he never says hello, or goodbye, even when you say it to him.
And this is just one small store  |
Not all Tesco stores are like that. Our local one is quite good (service wise). Although it did hit the news a year or so back when someone was murdered with a Samurai sword in the entrance. And yes, it is the big store at Lewisham.
As for your store, well, I suspect one cause. A combination of staff on minimum pay with pathetic bonuses and ineffective management.
Have you tried complaining to the manager, or Tesco themselves? I am sure Head Office would be very interested to know if one of their stores is giving them a bad name, even if it is a franchise.
