Then I asked a manager for help because a customer needed another size of tshirt and i wasnt allowed to leave the spot. Got a mouthful for interrupting him, so I just walked out the door. Twelve years ago and i still think about!

The charging of phone situation happened to someone I knew.Where I can see the point to a extent ,the rule was not the same for all workers.One guy I worked with was reprimanded in the managers office for charging his phone in the staff room.He said while being lectured he noticed the managers phone on the desk ,with the lead dangling down and the phone being charged,blatantly in front of him.While technically you are using works electricity to charge the phone,it was basically one rule for the office gods and one for the peasants.

I worked in a Wincanton warehouse in London for Sainsbury's. This report does not even shock me as I literally turned up to work one day and was let go. I am glad I walked away happily as I hated it but thought I was being picky or I needed experience. I walked away and a few years late being more picky, I applied for a position in an office and asked for 25k annual income but was instead offered 28k. 3k more than I asked and that is how good companies work, they also only demanded 1 day in the office minimum and I said I would be happy to come in 5 days.

That's the issue, they're ON the dole. The government thought it would be a grand idea of putting these "lazy good for nothings" to work and make it mandatory to pickup any job you can or getting your benefits cut. I have a friend who was on jobseekers allowance for a long time and had to take up working at places like Travis Perkins for 6 months FOR FREE in the hopes of getting hired after this testing period. Of course they let him go afterwards and said he wasn't a right fit or whatever. So they have a revolving door of free labor, just rejecting any applicants they get and the government/ corporations line their pockets a little more. I really don't miss being unemployed or working minimum wage jobs. It's slavery re-branded, only at least 200+ years ago they actually gave you food and shelter, but now they pay you barely enough to afford food and shelter for yourself. Humanity is still making progress.. right?

I worked at a well known high street fashion store in 2000 - 2003 in the Trafford Centre. Where we were bullied into getting shoppers to open store cards. The target was 1 a day on a shift. Failure to do so resulted in disciplinary action. Also physically disciplined by management twisting your arm to cause pain. One day I opened 10 and was hailed as a star employee, next day I got none and was put on the named and shame board. If you didn't get a customer to open a store card by the end of your shift, you had to stay late, unpaid. The culture of a threatening atmosphere by management was disgusting. My mental health deteriorated but as I needed a job you end up being trapped. I would say there are thousands of companies in the UK with horrendous conditions.

Generally the worst managers are the ones working in unskilled work. Because they have zero skills they always feel very insecure and take it out on everyone else. Being so poorly skilled also means that there is very little in the way of hierarchy so they fear for their jobs as they're just as disposable as anyone else and they know it. Where I work, a metal fabrication and engineering workshop, the labourers are much more skilled and harder to replace than any manager in the JD sports warehouse. They're also paid £12 an hour basic. Even as a labourer for my workshop, these managers would be completely out of their league. Talk about insecure.

I worked in a Superdrug in Denton that doubled as a warehouse (despite being tiny), this is reminiscent of that. But JD Sports looks worse. Some things are familiar though. Any item we owned which the store had in stock, we had go have signed by management. The receipt too if we bought it in-store. We had to spin a wheel at the day, the options were bag search, pockets search, or no search. We were shouted at for sitting down, sometimes given formal warnings for it. People worked to the point of physical pain, and sometimes fainting. I left when they introduced QR codes to our name badges that supervisors had to scan like a product bar code to sign us in and out with...the dehumanisation was insane. The manager expected a team of 6-15 people (dependant on the rota) to get 800 orders minimum picked, packed, and put in vans for delivery in 1 day. She often pushed for 1000 though. She would sit at her desk in the back office half the time watching us on the CCTV cameras, which she always had open. The turnover rate was insane, naturally. As were staff stress levels. I do IT support now and I'm a lot happier.

Its impossible to boycott when every company does this and every company exploits slave labour in China and other Asian nations. Whats needed is government enforcement of labour protections to end this that is the only way it will end.

I heard horror stories when I was on job seeker's allowance. Lads had been sent to warehouses 40 miles away, had to pay for their own transport, usually starting before 6am and once they got there it was a 50/50 chance they would actually get any work that day. There were white boards with names and hours on it. If your name wasn't on the board, you went home with no pay. This happens in warehouses all over the UK. The job center itself was just as bad, a cattle market. I was bounced around training courses for nine months. I'd been sent to "CV workshops" five times. Six hours sitting in an office just to walk out with a new CV each time. I quickly realized I was only there to keep the workers at the job center in a job.

Everyone, no matter where they work should be entitled to be treated with respect, especially when owners of big companies can be very exploitative individuals, making bank without being remotely ethical. This has absolutely nothing to do with political correctness, it’s about basic empathy and your line of thinking is very sociopathic and exploitative.

CORPORATIONS do not have any loyalty to the people nor the employees, loyalty id reserved for the Corporate Investors and Bankers. The Capitalism is wrapped in a vine-leaf called DEMO cracy. Every software Engineer knows what a DEMO is. It is also a system where 1% own more than the bottom 50% combined, 50% are doing fine and the remaining 49% of the so called DEMOcracy will have to accept and live with the crumbs, scraps and 'Privileges' that the 51% decide to give them. What kind of a democracy is that? Their fake democracy does not work. Now you realize why it is a DEMO CRAZY... Capital'ism is a virus, and a cure for Capitalism needs to be found and implemented Democracy is not working as well as imagined. Don't worry it's only a DEMO. Ask a software developer what DEMO means. Then you will better understand what DEMO-cracy means. The USA is Disneyland run by a bunch of sadistic clowns.

Dont worry, it gets better. See when you take that delicious £200 wage home you get to put it into rent or mortgage, both of which are raised by engineered scarcity in the housing market. Or you can put it in the bank where you'll get an interest rate which doesn't match inflation ... strangely this is the norm among all banks, almost like they got together and had a bit of a chat. (Im not suggesting a cartel though, cause cartels are highly illegal. Any banker doing that would end up in prison with all the other bad bankers who got locked up) Anyway, the good news to all of this is that should the banks, which kindly store (and make profit off) your (devalued) cash, ever flounder you don't have to worry, because they'll simply nationalize their debts. Just like they nationalize their profits .... yep. I know this because I live in Ireland, where the private debts of anglo-irish bank were gently slid across the table into the folder marked 'Irish public'. weeeee. Take care of this 40 bn tab would you. Strangely I can't remember a time where the banks placed profits in that same folder. It must have happened, its just me, i must be low on plasma again.

I've worked for agencies in places almost as bad as this. I'm curious as to the rate of suicide amongst agency workers in general.

This is exactly the same situation as the DHL warehouse that supplies Primark in Thrapston Northamptonshire. It's a harsh draconian environment that is capable of sucking the joy and life from the most positive of souls.
