Poundland is hiring seasonal cashiers as it anticipates the Xmas rush. Being Poundland, expectations are low.
With the cost of living crisis cutting deeper than multiple paper cuts from the razor-sharp edge of a corrugated cardboard box. This was re-affirmed when the job ad went up in the window of its Carr Street branch on Tuesday before last…
CASHIER WANTED: MUST BE 18 YEARS OLD WITH 20 YEARS EXPERIENCE.
It’s like the blind leading the blind.

As a ‘f*ck you’ ‘thank you’ for all their loyalty and hard work in 2022, all 18,000 members of Poundland’s staff will receive a £25 voucher to spend inin-storen December. A spokesman, who called us from the Bahamas said “We really appreciate how hard our colleagues work during the year, lol, and are closing our stores 5 minutes early over Christmas and New Year so they can enjoy a well-deserved 5-minute break with their family, friends, and debt collectors.”
Great. So wives and girlfriends of staff… look forward to receiving a Braun Silk-Epil Lady Shaver for Christmas. Plus anything else you want from the shop – as long as it’s a pound – which it probably won’t be.
