Again i believe those chain stores take advantage of joblesness and hence go for cheap labor. it's upto us kenyans and our minister for labour to fight such acts of injustice, i wonder if annon would mind comparing her payslip plus the overtime payments with her counterparts in places like south africa.<br />Word of advice: all good things are fought for not given on a silver platterUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11388953267541925741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3704903776670423286.post-60371168667045535092009-06-19T19:49:27.135+03:002009-06-19T19:49:27.135+03:00Anonymous said...annon ..

From Kisumu Could not quit working for Tuskys because that is the only place that she is getting her livelihood... and getting another job nowadays is quite a hustle...and that Does not give Tuskys the mandate to overwork people and going against the laws of the land and the ILO if you know what the animal that is. Tuskys Human Resource needs restructuring and and oh!! my!!! a through training of the attendants on customer service ..... Including yourself.... otherwise if you had proper training, whatever you are saying here s no way to approach issues pertaining to your potential customers. If You all did that Tuskys would be a leading brand in Kenya. and indeed the East Africa....Have shopped at Tuskys on several occasions and I know what I am talking about... Don get me wrong though some of the attendants are very very nice and are worth applauding but some are just flatly very very rude to customers.Chegehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07042366807923171464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3704903776670423286.post-89230448362122960102009-06-04T10:55:29.606+03:002009-06-04T10:55:29.606+03:00hi.Am a fan of shopping at tuskys n mainly the tus...hi.Am a fan of shopping at tuskys n mainly the tuskys pioneer.however there are these ladies who serve at the small bakery in the supermarket n they are ever so rude.U kindly ask for something n they get back 2 you so rudely.U even loose appetite of what they are making!I kindly ask the manager or anyone in charge of them to change their attitude otherwise the supermarket will loose some of their favourite customers.I shop there everyday N I wouldn't want to immagine having such treatment everyday.its annoying.however I also apprecate the other attendants n especally the athiriver ones.they are so kind.thank you n I hope you do something about itangry customernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3704903776670423286.post-91166907338849113932009-05-08T23:51:00.000+03:002009-05-08T23:51:00.000+03:00annon
Hi
I do not agree with you at all about wha...annon<br /><br />Hi<br />I do not agree with you at all about what you have to say about Tuskys.<br />1.they avoid hiring female employees for the same reason of late hours but this has NEVER stopped a female from asking for a job here<br />2.Before one is hired the working hours are explained to you and they make sure you understand that you will be working late.If its a probelem, X did not have to take the job am sure there were more people who were willing to take the job despite the hours (In other words, no body forced her to take the job)<br />3.Any hours worked beyond the state allocated time is fully compensated for using over time rates wich is higher than the regular rate. (Trust me if those over time hours were tpo be taken away she would complain)<br />4.If that is how X feels about her job, why is she still working for Tuskys??????????????????am sure she can find a better job else where.<br />I am a female working for Tuskys and am very proud to be working there and wouldnt dream of working anywhere else. I suggest next time you decide to blog about a company you do your research well enough and in a professional manner instead of presenting facts to the public that you are even not 100% sure of.One persons opinion doesnt count.<br />Actually, here is a challenge, how about you interview several females who work for various braches of Tuskys then give me your findings. Then we can talk....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3704903776670423286.post-24732641797905024722007-12-08T09:38:00.000+03:002007-12-08T09:38:00.000+03:00This comment has been removed by the author.Collinsom92https://www.blogger.com/profile/04322248981151131103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3704903776670423286.post-62719599805457977482007-12-08T03:20:00.000+03:002007-12-08T03:20:00.000+03:00HI, nice description....first time here..would lik...HI, nice description....first time here..would like to link exchange with you...may i? nice to meet you....i m a medical student currently studying in russia...<BR/>http://didofamily.blogspot.comBRYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12814585224127643198noreply@blogger.com
