Are the employees just given bread and water, have to work 24 hour shifts and are constantly whipped as they work to increase productivity? You learn something new here every day BY JINGO!
My local Tesco Superstore has been opening on Boxing Day for a few years. I was employed by them, and was told I would have to work on that day or be disciplined. Unfortunately for them I came into possession of Tesco's Christmas arrangements for staff. The management had told us nothing about the fact that the work was voluntary ! So I refused ...... they were going to discipline me ...... until I produced the evidence. I told them if they took any action against me I would walk out and sue them for unfair dismissal ....... needless to say they took no action ! lol
ther may be a recession but the way people are shopping they're preparing for a seige so they dont need the supermarkets to open on boxing day, some of the shoppers could last out till easter. As for the supermarkets needing the extra money because of the recession,Tesco were clearing 1 billion pounds per week in April and for the first time made 3 billion profit, how much extra do they need ?

I've now got an enforced lay off till 5th January. I would far rather work so will be helping a friend with her boarding kennels. My local mini supermarket is open on Christmas day morning. I expect I shall call in for a Birds Eye frozen turkey dinner. Unless I just stick with the jam sandwiches, as usual.
