So play one set of people off against another to drive the wage down, the old race to the bottom. That's what they want people to do so they can justify paying less. Shame on us as a society workers have to take a huge company who make billions from taxpayers to court to pay a decent wage So PP, how much do you think a) warehouse operatives and b) store staff should be paid? Let’s say per hour.

Ah Tesco's that brings back very fond memories for me. I remember working at one unnamed branch(For obvious reasons) in SW London back in the early 80s, when I had no work & a mortgage at that time. To supplement their meagre wages I hooked up with a well known local villain & as I was stacking shelves at night I would get those 2 litre bottles of home brand Tesco lemonade flush it down the khazi & then re-top it up with either Gin, Vodka or Bacardi & mark said bottle with a small felt tip pen.

That is exactly what this law firm is trying to do, not Tesco. Tesco offered certain jobs at certain rates of pay and people willingly took them. Now that a law firm has dangled a carrot in front of one group of them, because they've arbitrarily decided that two completely different jobs are comparable, some of the workers have also decided it's not fair. It's got sod all to do with society or taxpayers. Tesco is a plc and they pay a decent wage for a job that soon won't exist, so best not to rock the boat I'd say. Yep stores will inevitably become more automated. One day, these same shelf stackers will reminisce about the good old days when they had a job, but the clever lawyers will be happy because everyone will earn the same ie fvck all.

Some on the BBS are probably drawing up petitions and producing badges for their campaign. I'm waiting for the first politician to try to take their moment. One thing you're going to have to be in those roles now is more physically fit as more jobs go due to living wages and they try to match Aldi and Lidl's productivity. In America, in the Amazon stores, with a phone app, you can put all your shopping in a bag as you go round, place it on the self service till and it knows what you have. Sainsburys are trialling it apparently. Scousers have trialled it, without the till.

Tesco, not Tesco's. You're not an American and I expect better of you. Didn't you conduct a similar ruse with a pub/bar too? The ATF will be after you if you're not careful!

Lawyers will be the equivalent of cockroaches in a nuclear holocaust in terms of job losses to automation, sadly.
