But will there be someone on Monday with you in the morning ? xx
 
I was concerned bout seeing stock proper on the bottom shelves we have to enter the info into the hand terminal and send to head office , we have to enter anything 3 or less , in ild shop you had to get down on your knees to see as it has to be accurate , I can't kneel on it since op it's more painful than before, but my assistant says the shelving is better if you stand back a bit you can see without kneeling down,

Von when I worked in Thorntons as a Manager, when we did stock take we had real low shelves as well, the girls would bend down or sit on the floor, but I couldn't because I always had a weak back, so I bought a small stool for myself from the poundshop, not a regular size one, its very low like a foot stool you can sit on them as well, good for lower levels, it really helps, then you can sit down comfortably xx

Yea that's a good idea , if I struggle doing the stick check , but that won't be allowed once the shop is opened , we have the standard kick stools supplied but we can't sit on them while we fill or tidy the shelves

Well that sounds better .. take it a day at a time, if you feel you need more breaks etc, go back to doc to get letter with more details, but hopefully things will workout for you, fingers crossed xx

When I spoke to my area manager earlier in the week she did say she was quite happy to follow what ever I need, but we will see , things have a habit of changing when it no longer suits,
But on the other hand I don't want to be doing part time for too long , until I'm actually there doing it I don't know how much stress it will put on my knee, all I can really do it play it by ear day to day ,
