I'll tell you who does 'rely on benefits'. It's the supermarket chains that pay their bosses millions of pounds a year while driving shopworker wages down to levels that force staff to claim Universal Credit.

I’m only a simple shopworker, even I know that vaccines work.

It really is bizarre how some people think the shopworker should be the priority in that situation.

What is common knowledge in your field, but shocks outsiders?

Every one hour of an audiobook takes three hours of work. You burn hours trying to drink away mouth pops, redoing too loud or too soft lines, and forgetting how to say “penguin”

In 1984, this Irish shopworker refused to sell grapefruits from apartheid South Africa

That small act of protest sparked a historic strike that led to Ireland banning trade with South Africa

Now, Mary Manning tells Dena why she’s pushing Ireland to stop trading with Israel

I cannot stress this enough…

STOP TAKING YOUR ANGER OUT ON RETAIL STAFF.

Abuse has gone up toward retail staff in the past week.

I’ve had abuse thrown at me twice in 2 days.

I’ve broken down twice.

Christmas can do one.

It's @usdawunion.bsky.social 'Respect for Shopworker Week'.

I visited the Co-op in Woodlesford, to hear directly about retail crime and antisocial behaviour.

Labour has committed to make attacking a retail worker a specific offence, as well as plans to restore neighbourhood policing.

DYING of cute on the bus on my way to work. Tiny toddler in reins and tinier chihuahua on leash fascinated with each other, each straining against their respective restraints to get closer, unnoticed by human Dad juggling phone, coffee, keys and reins and dog owner having a chat with shopworker.

I went to the Unity kid's section and asked for Dungeon Crawler Carl for my boy, shopworker was ??? A grown man walking into the store says 'Hah, that book's not for children!' I said 'Uh it's for teenagers.' The man laughs, nervously. Did I YA/crossover-shame him, sorry everyone.

Behind every gift and every smile is a shopworker making it happen. 🎁

At the busiest time of year, we say a huge thank you to all retail heroes for keeping our communities thriving.

Good to visit the M&S Foodhall in Longwater yesterday. As a former shopworker I know how hard it is on the frontline. Scrapping the £200 limit for police action on retail theft is the right move. We also spoke about backing British farmers and supermarkets’ role in the 10-year health strategy.

Oh night and day but even looking like an Edwardian Governor-General I’ve still always got to flag down some poor shopworker who has to bleep through a tatty receipt.

these are “annoy the shopworker alarms” because if they go off we don’t do shit about it. just keep walking, we are told not to chase after you bc if we got hurt we could sue the employers.

The results of our 2025 Freedom From Fear survey showed a shocking level of abuse faced by retail staff 📈

Nobody should feel unsafe at work - we need to put a stop to shopworker abuse ✋

Shopworker against a new cycle lane.

(yes, a complex situation and there should be better definitions of what 'unloading' means for both traffic wardens and businesses, equally businesses shouldn't rely on resident parking bays for their own & customer use)

It's a real shame the shopworker couldn't have held these "customers" to their tantrum and refused to serve them.

This is the final week of the World Cup, and the busiest it gets for shops and deliveries.

Our Shopworker Starting XI will be working through all of it.

They deserve our respect. No-one should face abuse for doing their job. ⚽
