Aldi worker issues plea to customers over bad habit

An Aldi employee worker is pleading with customers to stop "moaning" and "abusing" staff during the warmer weather.

The woman took to social media to tell customers to "spare a thought" for those working in the heat. Louisa Brown went on the Facebook group Aldi UK Shoppers after it appears she had enough of customers not being kind enough to staff, Birmingham Live reports.

She said: "Yes it's silly season. Every man and his dog has come out to play and visit the supermarkets. I'm not just on about my store I'm on about every supermarket, everywhere.

"To all that shop. Spare a thought for the people that are working in this heat, to keep your cupboards stocked. Or just so you can pop in for an ice lolly.

"When we say we don't have a product we genuinely don't. The stock is worked, and worked again hours after. To keep it on the shelves for YOU. My staff are tired but yet keep smiling and pushing through. Because yes, it's our job but more importantly we have a passion and we actually love our jobs.

"All the staff in every Aldi pull it out the bag every single day. We are currently up against it. But between us show grit, determination. With a will to succeed. This is a recipe for success. Keep doing what we do people. #TeamAldi"

Other shoppers came out in defence of Aldi staff and the hard work they put in. One person said: "You always work so hard under the pressure of management and customers. It's such a shame more people don't understand the constraints put upon you all. Your doing a great job"

A second added: "Love Aldi, wouldn't shop anywhere else. Great products and prices, staff always helpful and checkout is wonderful, quick and a painless bill!", while a third wrote: "I never moan and very grateful to the staff. So happy to have an Aldi very near."
