Stocker, Restocking Shelves Review

My experience involved many different things, including restocking shelves, monitoring temperatures of the freezers to check that the food is stored at a relevant temperature and others. I was doing all the simple things, so nothing big, or massively experienced. I did learn a few things though.

I didn’t really learn much. They told me to do the simple jobs while the higher up people were doing the more major jobs which was ordering and investing stocks in other trade units, and to order more stocks for it to be shipped.

Yeah, I did. I did get together with a few other employees and we talked and chatted while we done the jobs. It actually went quite well! I actually quite enjoyed it when they were there. I did a few things wrong, they helped me with it straight away. I liked Ken, he was pretty nice.

Not perfectly organised. Not everything is organised or done the way you imagine or think it will be like. I liked the way the cupboards were easily labelled so we could easily find where items are meant to be. The store was well organised, which made it easy for I and my kind of job role to stock shelves, etc.

I learnt a lot about their culture and what they did. I learnt about what sort of things they do such as the place. The rooms are very weirdly organised, but the fact that the culture of the place, they have e.g. France week sometimes selling special stock.

Not much, I wanted to be a computer scientist. Iceland didn’t really give me a massive thought about what I wanted to do. It just gave me some experience on what I wanted to do later on in life.

I was paid hourly. But sometimes they didn’t pay me due to the fact that it was volunteering, the boss was very nice and gave me some credit for future studying for my student life. They were quite nice.

Yeah. I met Dave, Kent, and Ken. They were really nice to me and taught me some extra stuff that I needed to know to be a volunteer there. It was really nice of them, saying that I was temporary and I was staying there for limited time.

Yes

Because the staff are kind, the customers are really not hurtful, but really positive and ask for things if it isn’t there really nicely. They don’t yell at you for anything, and the people they work for is brilliant.

Follow their advice mainly. I didn’t follow it start off with but then I realised I hadn’t been there before, and I was only there temporarily. They were really nice to me when I did something wrong, and helped me to do it right.
