Anyone who doesn't like this has never worked in retail, this show is not over exaggerated, these things do happen people are this stupid and rude, we might as well be robots some of the things customers have said and treated me and co-workers in the past.
As a retail veteran, this show is at times painful, at times evocative, but always never less than funny and yet the best thing about it is it also acts as a morality lesson for anyone who's not worked in a service industry. As with Sky's Trollied (set in a supermarket) the idiots are both sides of the counter while the good guys quietly simmer .. well, most of the time they do. There's actually a lot of outbursts in Rostered On, which definitely places it firmly down under. I doubt anyone in the UK would act the way most of the staff do in fronting up to the customers - not if they wanted to keep their jobs, anyway. So many of the characters are instantly recognisable along with most of the situations they find themselves in, but the customers really are the stars of the show. The main cast are all well-drawn, but the men and women visiting their store .. wow .. they're absolutely bang on the money for me.
Great show. Great dialogue. Lots of mileage too, so I hope it continues !

This is a really bad comedy show. It's so pointless, the characters are less than one-dimensional, not even the jokes are good. Some truly terrible writing and acting here.
Everyone hating on this is wrong. It is not meant to be some cinematic masterpiece. Its 21 minutes of hilarity and the best thing to watch after an annoying day at work. If you work or have worked in retail it will affirm everything you've ever thought while working. Love the cast and can not wait for more episodes.
This show is trueoy phenomenal. As someone with 10 years retail experience, I can assure you that this sums it up perfectly. Useless managers, hopeless staff, and asshole customers. Rostered On shows this 100%, and makes you howl with laughter into the bargain.
