r/Bunnings

I recently got a job at Bunnings and I’m going in for my induction next Saturday however I’m unsure where I get my uniform as they said I need to get it before hand. Do I go in store to get it or do I order it from somewhere?

So I got the job offer today for Bunnings which I'm very happy about however my letter offer says my commencement date is this Saturday. This doesn't mean my official first day does it? As I still need to give my current job a couple weeks notice for resigning. What should I do or do I need to do anything more?

YAY IM SO HAPPY

I have done the in person interview at Bunnings wondering what’s the next step and whether or not I’ve gotten hired or not, I applied 5 days ago yet to hear back yet. This is for a seasonal casual.

Hey yall. When I was a kid (17 or so) I would go with my grandparents to Bunnings and they’d let me take the colour page things. I’d take like 50 bro and I wouldn’t do anything with them. I feel really bad about it to this day because they prob were expensive as hell. Idk. Now I’m a bit older and I have my own child on the way.

Was it wrong of me to steal those colour paper things!? And does anyone have any parenting advice. Thanks.

The range is large enough that the obvious product for a job isn't always the best one and the people who've done enough DIY to know the difference between what looks right on the shelf and what actually performs well on the job have usually learned that lesson through experience rather than through anything the packaging told them. Would love to know which products people here think are the most commonly bought but ultimately wrong choice for the jobs they get bought for.

Currently standing in a 30+ people queue for a single open register, while the self checkouts sit idle. Wtf is even the point

Hey guys. Recently started at Bunnings. What apps do they use I have UKG and workday but is there any others and when do you get them? Like for my discount card and what not x

I firmly believe dogs aren’t the problem. It’s bad owners. This morning’s experience is a prime example. Not in a Bunnings store but typical of the shitty dog owner experience in Bunnings.

Enjoying a coffee. 2 large, calm dogs on adjacent tables with owners also enjoying their coffee. Dogs are on short leashes and sitting under/directly next to their owner’s chair

Entitled couple arrives with medium-sized dog. neurotic, full length of leash allowed. Immediately starts barking at the other dogs, other people, starts walking among other tables and licking people. Owners laugh all of this off and tell the dog to sit. Of course it doesn’t. Dog goes back to approaching and generally upsetting other dogs. At least one other dog owner visibly frustrated and leaves. Neurotic dog continues to walk amongst other tables and chairs, blocking pathways, barking, whining and just generally being a nuisance to everyone while the entitled couple chit-chats.

Small child enters. Dog barks in its face. Child blocking ears, entitled couple laughing it off.

These people clearly think their dog is well behaved…they’re bringing it to a cafe. Is it wilful ignorance? Selfishness? A lack of empathy? Do they genuinely think everyone else loves their animal and wants to tolerate their BS?

Anyone else noticed Apple Pay dropped off the PowerPass app? Bit annoying to do that with no notice, they must have decided they didn’t wanna pay for Apple Pay anymore. Poor Bunnings must be doing it hard.

Also;

Am I the only one who is kinda sad the old PowerPass is being phased out? I feel anytime a company has to push on you this hard that their new ‘better’ system is this much more superior it’s worrying. Also 4-8c off at shell is still more expensive than most places (where I live anyway).

ALSO;

Has anyone else’s Bunnings been tipped on its head? Our local has been completely reimagined, isles split up, heaps of stuff moved and the registers are completely different now. Not particularly a bad thing just different.

Sorry for the negative post too. I actually only came here to say about the Apple Pay removal, but stayed for the overall whine and bitch sesh.

lowkey just curious what you guys keep in your apron, or even how you’s display your badges, I’ve got a few badges w a full apron just not sure how I should show em off and need some ideas 😜
