stores are too big
too much choice
too many fake bogof deals

too many fingers in non grocery pies
top execs had private jets for UK travel

[empire]

tesco got greedy, in their prices, and they want british workers that are cheap labour,

arista my best friend - i hope you don't mind but i was just going to start this but i see you beat me to it. i have just sent this to dave and i hope you lot enjoy it. can not stop going to get a few tins from my local tesco - chill its a 24 hour one.

a question for Dave Lewis - Tesco ? 22.04.15

before you did arrive
your food filled our plate
the standards were no dive
value and quality did only escalate.
everything you sold
was in your blue red white logo
tesco's bounce was so bold
it was higher then any stick on a Pogo.
in nearly every street
your success was no mystery
but people are protesting with there feet
evidence is the 6.4bl loss in history.
you let slip your code
everything was in the building and progression
its now ended with a fatal explode
to tesco this is there "great depression".
when people complained you ignored
because everyone was irrelevant
for self importance you win the award
that's key to the fall of this giant.
with staff that are rude
often speaking in a different lingo
"every little helps" was shrewd
but falling to earth was that shape by "Ringo".
we want a low competitive price
with service that does glow
Dave Lewis do you want a poem to entice
or have you got a way to get people back at tesco.

Arista might track me down and kill me for saying this, but for the last 6 months to a year, Tesco has been much better than Asda. The ones around here at least, definitely. Asda have SERIOUSLY slipped lately, I've gone in to do a modest weekly shop and they've been "out of stock" on several basic items and there are other things that you just can't get... and Tesco have been consistently beating them on price, too.

I also couldn't get a pair of plain black leather shoes for work from Asda recently, in an emergency (caught my shoe on a door and ripped the sole clean off ). They just didn't have them. WTF Asda George? Really? Plain black shoes? ANY plain black shoe? Not one in sight! Tesco to the rescue!

[waterhog]

toy you are getting worse then me - leave george out of this one.(how do i do one of them smiley?)

[Toy Soldier]

They have been laying off staff though, I had some woman moaning at me for a good 20 minutes one evening at work about how she was being made redundant from her "team leader" role. Did I care? Did I really care, at 9.30pm after a 13 hour shift, that this simple little bucktooth lady was losing her job? No I did not... but she told me anyway. And told me and told me and told me.

Tell the CEO to stop
Fecking Land Grabbing
you can Shelf a brand new built £22 Million store

[the truth]

complacent , over staffed, too many buildings, too centrally controlled, no autonomy for the individual stores every MUST go through head office, too many products spread to thinly.......monopolies always collapse

[Kizzy]

It's sad that jobs are going, they really did get too big for their britches.

[the truth]

Tesco have held most british towns to ransom for decades and councils have always rolled over..think too hos many small businesses and how many town centres have been destroyed by tescos...this is simply a natural rebalancing of the retail universe

This is a good point to be fair, although I'd argue that Asda isn't any better. The town I work in is flanked by a Tesco and an Asda, one on either side, and combined they've both sucked the life out of the town centre. Still so many empty units.

[waterhog]

watch out the empty units don't turn into the micro supermarkets shops.
