Londis - Goose Green

[doniyasoni]

Last night my friend and I posted about Londis on the corner of Goose Green and about how the staff makes us feel uncomfortable and makes unwanted sexual advances and comments.

We were met with suspicion and the post was deleted. I am re posting again with my long standing profile. The reason we created new profiles is because our names were associated with our previous ones and we were worried about our privacy.

However, this is something I am concerned about and find really troubling. The responses we got last night made it seem as though we were making it up.

We are not making it up, a simple scan of the reviews suggest that others have experienced the same.

What we are trying to achieve is not the slandering of an individual (we don't even know his name) but I guess we'd like the shop owner to see the impact that this person is having on the community - particularly women.

I now no longer enter that store after some of the comments directed towards me but feel conflicted as I don't want to be run out of local shops due to one staff member.

I would urge you to read this post not as an attempt at slander but an attempt to change a situation that we have felt powerless in in the past.

do you mean the BP garage? I've never been in there and considering the alternatives available I suggest you don't if you don't feel comfortable.

Have you reported the incident to Head Office?

No J&B, I think it?s the shop next to the bar/restaurant which is adjacent to GG playground.

It seems a shame to have to avoid my local shop and go somewhere less convenient purely because i am worried about being harassed..

Have you reported it? If not, I would suggest you do.

Any suggestions on who to report to? My partner has gone to speak to the owner (or manager) and he laughed it off!

Then they do not deserve your custom. Use Tesco Express or petrol station - simples.

I don't know about the night time, but there have always been very nice staff there in the day when I have gone.

Londis operates a franchise/support model to independent retailers. It might be worth contacting them to take it up with the store; no brand wants to be associated with this kind of unacceptable behaviour.
