Uncertainty, fear and sadness prevail among the employees of the Real branch in Munich. When asked what the sale means to them, most of them shrug their shoulders.-
“I don’t know what will happen next. Nobody knows,” says an employee who is currently putting Barilla pasta packs on the shelf. She is looking forward to finishing work. “It was a turbulent day.” Some branches had already been informed about the content of today’s speech by the Metro boss at the Annual General Meeting last night.
“But we had known for weeks that they were selling us,” says a young employee at the fish counter. Sea bass and sole are available there today. “I believe and wish that we continue here in this real,” says the friendly seller. Only buyers SCP and x + Bricks know whether this is actually true. You definitely don’t want to continue to run the branches completely. Only a small part of the markets should continue under the Real name.
A surprise awaits at the entrance to the Munich branch. The business is looking for new employees, even after the sale has been announced. There are vacancies in the butcher shop, in the bakery and at the cash register. “Do you want to move a lot? Apply now”, says a customer stop at the entrance.
According to the job offer, holiday pay, six weeks of vacation, employee discounts and special discounts during the staff purchase days are on offer. However, even the cashier does not know whether the ad is still up to date. “You can apply,” says CHIP diplomatically and kindly.
However, no one can be reached on the given telephone number in the late Friday afternoon.
