Talk:Wilkinson (shop)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wilkinson also expects its employees to work long hours for little pay, even taking money from its employee's wages to recoup losses during the two days in February 2007 in which it snowed, causing customers to stay at home while Wilkinson staff worked long and hard both days only to receive an even more minimal wage than usual.
- As far as I know as a Wilkinson employee in the distribution centre, this is not true. Staff are not required to work more than 8 hours a day or 39 hours a week. I also never had my pay cut during february.
- I am a CSA for them and i totally disagree, pay is same if not better than competitors e.g. Sainsburys. Although i am part time i know no-one works more than 39 hours (security guard). NO Money was ever deducted from our wages due to lack of earnings. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Aaron manz (talk • contribs) 19:22, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

That's what my mum works for them, she's a section leader at one of the shops. Pay is slightly above National Minimum Wage. Digifiend 12:32, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Wilkinsonlogo2.jpg
Image:Wilkinsonlogo2.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Brief Encounter
An early Wilkinson store (a real-life one in, I believe, Beaconsfield) can be seen in the background in the 1945 film Brief Encounter (which is set in 1938). I don't know whether this is worthy of inclusion in the article, but you never know. ProhibitOnions (T) 21:31, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
