Re: Slaughter. It was damning.Sacked if you sat down even after completeing an 11 hour shift.In truth, quite obscene work practices.How resilient the share price has been...I am amazed truth be told.
Re: Slaughter. I sold this morning at 8.20 am , playing golf all am and didn't want to risk a massive loss.Price has recovered and no surprise there. What was really in the programme report ?Queueing to get in, unpaid . Queueing to get out, unpaid. Queueing time taking effect piece rate below nat min wage. Big deal.A supervisor saying people could be sacked. But in response to what question I didn't here that.OK, some room for improvement but treating people like s--m ? (oft repeated). Seemed well over the top.Moon
Slaughter. Watched the CH4 report.JD will be slaughtered tomorrow.I dont partake in spread betting or short selling, but those that do will make big time is my opinion.Catastrophic.
Re: sold the lot Just read the BBC report into this which says the shares are down 70% this year.That is very sloppy reporting.as clearly not aware or understanding of the sub-division of the shares.Let's wait & see if the allegations regarding the warehouse are better founded or not.
sold the lot i am surprised nobody posted about the allegation of ill treatment of workers
Initial share price Just a moan. It would be smashing if iii could get the original prices of this share back to bearing some reality after at least a week of error. Apart from that al is fine in the state of UK.
