wonkyfella	I bet he wasn't that impressed with your appearance either. Do you think he went home crying to his PC? Grow up. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Pleasant Peter Perkins	Somerfields have a meritocracy policy. If you talk a good job...they assume you do a good job. Before you complain...we actually apply the same test to our MP's! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

StingRay	I'd rather that than an employee fresh off the boat that can't even talk the f*ckin' language, yet the employer still puts them in positions where they have to talk and listen. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

cybersharque	Maybe the manager is a meth head as well, you never know. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

piscesburd	He speaks highly of you too. lol Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Lovin' Life	That's really messed up. I can understand why you'd be offended but maybe something was going on you aren't aware of. You can complain to customer service but this person might be trying to get their life back on track and that might make things worse for them. I definitely wouldn't want someone like that working around my food! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Dr Frank	Take it up with the supermarket manager. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

shutyerfaceup	I hope you said something to the manager. That bloke needs to be told to smarten himself up Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

loz	eugh who wants someone like that round their food Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

dont know much	I think you must be referring to me as I fit the description given. I would just like to say that I do wash .. in fact I washed on my birthday last month.And as for the uniform being dirty have you seen the price of soap powder in somerfield , even with staff discount I cant afford it on the crappy wages I get and they dont wash the bleeding thing for me. The scabs are caused by having to be nice to customers like you as I have to bite my lip when you start moaning. And for your information I am the customer service manager so don't bother coming and asking for the manager to complain about the state of the staff ! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Bently	Ask customer services! They might not know he looks the way he does. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Tks	Everyone has the right to work somewhere and its not like people are lining up to work a crappy supermarket job. Also how is this guy supposed to get his teeth fixed? He's probably getting crappy pay. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

antra	you dont know whats going on in his life, hes probably depressed from working there Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

secretservice	because supermarkets hire annnnnnnyyyyyybbooooodyyyyyyy because they treat people like $hit and give them $hit money so they know they won't last long so they always need people, and people always need jobs and they can't get hired anywhere else so they go there Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

tinker33	I know what you mean... went there a few weeks back to be served by a gum chewing - lip smacking so called employee.. My pet hate is Crap customer service.. and lip smacking.. Did any one see those undercover documentaries about Sainsbury's and tesco??? :( Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Explorer	ewwww, I would never hire someone like that. I dont think i even want to be served by someone like that. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

evon stark	he was a mess in your eyes..but maybe he was doing the best that he could and thats better than some people do Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

bmac	Maybe you should lay off the booze for a while. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

snoopy	This statement: "How can a supermarket allow an employee to come to work in a state like that?" is a MUCH more appropriate question than your original one: "How could a supermarket employ such a person??" Would you suggest he not have a job at all? That said, what makes you so sure he is not homeless? I agree that the store should have standards, but you sound a little self-important. Maybe empathy would be more appropriate here than your self-righteous indignation at having to look at a person whose appearance you don't like. Ever have something really really bad happen to you and then be in public (store or something) and watch everyone go about their day around you and think, "wow, no one even knows the hell I"m living through right now." Well, keep in mind as you judge others that you have no idea what is going on with him. Be decent to others; we can't all be as perfect and important as you! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Perndar	i doubt he was hired like that . he was probably hired years ago and didnt look as bad. or he was probably hired by a family member Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
