Worked at the South Surrey warehouse for 4 years. They just have unreasonable quotas you have to hit. Slugging 50lb wonky bags of onions and having to pick 20-30 of them at time and only getting 20 mins to finish that 3 pallet order is too tight. The management mocks you for getting hurt.

Plus we had two known cases of Covid Recently and the response was very poor We were forced back to work and the place wasn’t deep cleaned at all. There is a reason why it is easy to get hired.

Store Manager has no Respect for her fellow managers and employees. On regualr basis yells and swears at them.........hard to believe that she gets away with it!!

For clerk/ cashier applicants, nice pants and top. I think you can get away with sneakers (preferably dark color) as long as they look clean. I'm quite sure there's no need to wear heels or formal leather shoes. The dress code for this position is casual and neat so keep that in mind when you go for your interview.
