What are your contract hours for oxford street east?(Original post by NeonXIII)
First day was good, it went by in a blur!
I was on till as my contract says, but when it got quiet I was cleaning up and sorting clothes behind the till.
My shift was till 11:30 and for the last hour and a half after the shop closes everyone just makes the store look neat by putting things back where they belong and stuff.

Hey, for anyone who already works there, I was wondering if it would be okay to wear creepers as my work shoes? It won't be too OTT right? Normal ballerina pumps aren't too comfy for me but if I'll get in trouble for wearing creepers then I guess I could live with it.
I'm doing a 4hour shift though and the store closes 2 hours into it...

Re: Primark threadI was wondering about shoes too, i want to wear dm's, I don't know, if you're not sure/don't get an answer on this, I'd just wear them on the first day and ask, or just see if they complain or not :P Since I finished high school, I've literally had no black 'work' shoes for years haha(Original post by muffinxchan)

I don't think that would be allowed, I've never seen anyone working in primark wearing creepers before.. I'm just going to wear vans..(Original post by muffinxchan)

It's been 37 days, can someone please advice me on what to do now ? I think it's completely unfair and unprofessional on there part after promising a reply within 28 days.
Is there an email address or telephone number I could use to contact them ?
Thanks
