OW takes good care of its employees :) I'm glad things worked out for you.
Difficult as in rude? I just deal with it like any other customer. Maybe they're having a bad day. I'll forgot you at the end of my shift :)
Would you rather fight 100 duck-sized horses or one horse-sized duck?
Well it's going to have to open less stores as time goes, it's impossible to sustain the same rate of expansion (this is true for any…
Pretty much spot-on.
Yeah honestly I've recommended people other more specific computer shops for their even more specific needs sometimes. Having no influence…
Thank you. GLaDOS said I'm a horrible, horrible person though :'(
Yes. Sometimes you don't have the time to investigate over a few dollars but if the store isn't busy and / or the amount is reasonably…
[@windrc](/comment/3606079/redir): Hey matey > first ask you to wait aside and ask another staff to come to serve you. Depends who you get…

[@IceCreamBandit](/comment/3602340/redir): Agree with what you said. Not related to this AMA but more people need to look into cloud…
If it meets the main conditions of the pricebeat policy then there is no reason for it to be unsuccessful. These conditions are mainly…
Thanks. I know some people are really hesitant to price beat at our / other stores. It baffles me because a) we don't lost anything and b)…
We get some small business customers. For most people (small business customers in particular) I really suggest ordering online if you are…
Stubborn and rude people don't really phase me much. I don't get them quite often, most of the customers here are nice. If you are rude and…
There is a push to sell extended warranties. There is no incentive to do so. No one in my store really bothers except me, when I think it…
No that is not a policy. If lots of people begin price beating from a particular site I would assume that they'd act upon it on all stores.…
Not necessarily outdated tech per se, but just not the "highest" end. Our desktop range is appalling for example. For laptops, the best you…
Yep what Venom said. Also staff frequently reserve clearance items for themselves behind the counter to buy at the end of their shift. If…
In some cases people assume that the shelf prices we have are the lowest they will find. It's a fair assumption because we check competitor…
It varies store to store. The clearance table contains both "clearance" items and particular quantities of stock that the store might want…
Only know 1 or 2 part timers at my store. We're almost all casuals.
The wage sheet is [available publicly](https://www.sdansw.org.au/system/files/%28UN%29%20Officeworks%20Wage%20Sheet%2001Apr2015.pdf). If…
When the store isn't busy I go around just [facing up](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facing_(retail)). I also connect the display bluetooth…
Good question. If customers make what I know to be bad purchasing decisions despite my recommendations and advice then I don't feel…
Not as often as I think should be happening. Maybe one or two a day, add / take (just from looking around and not being on registers). If…
It depends how you draw the distinction between the two. I would say it is mostly individuals. The most common tech sections would be (in…
sy37 posted a forum topic [AMA] I Work at Officeworks. AMA
I encounter a lot of you ozbargainers here. Ask away. Will strictly not provide proof / location of the store I work in. If this is a…
