I know how you feel, my wife is in the same situation at our local store, she tells me of the horrors of working there, fortunately, the silly contracts they offer work for her due to her ongoing education course, and looking after the kids.
I for one would not like to work there from the things I hear, I do think that maybe not investing in good staff will hurt them in the end.
Let's hope they fix this soon, I and my wife still continue to invest as they pay a dividend and Tescos are not going anywhere for a long time.
Have a good weekend.
Well they can have mine in 2years! As for people wanting jobs the vast majority of jobs on offer now are 14-25 hours a week 2-3 days they put them on flexible contracts so at a whim of 24 hours notice they’re asked to come in the following day as part of there contract they pretty much have too. So the staff turnover of newbies is huge , now my department has 10 people spread over the week of which7 are long term so can’t be pestered to do extra and to be honest no one does as we’re all ****ed off to be truthful. The other 3 shifts are newbies and we are lucky If they last 3 months last bloke lasted 4 shifts . So we have to train them up again and again which slows down the department and puts pressure on us well every week this year to be honest. Hence we ended up getting agency staff in at twice the price for 8 weeks to bail the night team out it was that bad.
There’s jobs but they don’t want part time or last the distance.
The interim is actually 2.65p...every little helps and is actually a 58.7% increase. The interim is around one third of what the final should be so expect around 5p+
Long term shareholders have lost a vast amount of their life savings , so a mere 2.6p dividend is a very small consolation to the share value they have lost over the past few years. Without the loyal shareholders there would be no business and you would be out of work . A lot of unemployed people would love your job and your wages . If you do not like the terms of employment , leave , and give these people a chance in life.
Interim is 2.6p “every little helps”
Tsco shares will be trading interim ex-div from 10 Oct 19 and div payable 22 Nov 19. How much is the interim div?
Picked —- pocketed!!
Well not a bad day then results up albeit slightly, drastic Dave’s off he’s picked his millions put countless people out of a job , stuffed the long term staff/ new with cuts to over time on bank holidays Sunday’s , got rid of the bonus. The minimum wage was £7.50 when I was on the till when we get to £9.30 the minimum wage will be £9 so if the union said no negotiations 5 years ago we’d still have double time , time and a half and a £600 a year bonus! Instead we’ve gained 20p on the minimum wage a cool £350 a year cheers Dave cheers the union .oh but what’s this the interim dividend rises 56%from 1.67 p to 2.65 a penny give or take so that’s another £95 million pounds to shareholders nice one drastic. Yet the double time to time and a half only saved £3 million pounds a year and p#ssed off 1,000s of staff.
Sorry rant over ....
Sales flat, LFL down slightly. Can't keep sacking staff. Will go down 10% from here.
232
Obviously well planned with successor already been appointed? Bumpy opening but hopefully smooth by end of trading?
Profits are up but Dave Lewis is out that might spook the market
Profit up
Not good, 220 open ?
Is ready to make a big investment in a UK company "Tomorrow" according to the FT !
Wonder if he'll be back sniffing around Tesco again, or is put off following his last dabble ?
Hi Jandialbi, thanks for that.
Hi ..BorisandDoris.......it will be announced in next interim results which is due on 2nd October.
Hope this helps.

Hi, does anyone know the next divi price please?
Ignore that ex dividend comment, I’m a month early! Lol!
isn't it ex-dividend date today?
Isn't it always kantar worldpanel day? Normally it is, the day kantar reveal the ever dwindling market share.
Kantar lets boot Tescos share day as its known.
Can anyone highlight reasons for the drop today?
Try Tesco own brand Cornish pasties, they are lovely , and plenty of content inside . Must agree with your comment on all pastry and no filling on some other offerings , had the same experience.
Online?
We bought ours in store. The big problem with it was that inside the casing was hardly any filling - it was nearly all pastry! Hence our refund.
As for WorldGoRound, speak for yourself - I guess you are an employee of the dodgy outfit.
