MANY of us Brits love a trip to Home Bargains for a cheap haul, but one employee has revealed what it’s really like working for the high-street chain.
Katie Jadeshaw, a Home Bargains employee, took to TikTok to share the highs and lows of working for the popular retailer.
The young woman uploaded her video with the caption ‘Home Bargains gang’.
She asked: “Have you ever worked at Home Bargains?”.
Katie then revealed the typical things that Home Bargains staff will know all too well about, including the job they all dread doing and the thing that customers always say.
The first thing Katie mentioned is a common statement made by many shoppers and if you’ve ever shopped in Home Bargains before, it’s highly likely that you will have said this at some point.
