Subway Store Manager

Noodle

Brisbane, QL

Male, 24

I have been working in Australia at Subway restaurants for 6 years and have been a manager at a Subway in a shopping center for the past 4. Unlike from what ive heard about McDonalds managers, Subway managers are VERY hands on; washing dishes, serving customers, cleaning and everything in between. I will Q&A some common questions to save peoples time

What's your store procedure in case of a robbery attempt?

Asked by Van Halen about 10 years ago

Pretty much stay calm and give them what they want because its all insured. Then call the police and close the store straight after the incident.

I was so sorry to read about the Sydney hostage siege. Are retail and food shops in Australia all now re-evaluating their emergency procedures, or are people viewing that as an isolated incident?

Asked by Sloane about 10 years ago

Not that I know of, our store is in Brisbane so it is "away from the action" so to speak. In Sydney there may be some re-evaluation but a terrorist attack is unlikely to be centered around a Subway store. Sorry but I just don't know much about that whole situation.

Hi, my name is Keith and I'm currently applying for sandwich artist position at Subway, who should I best put for my reference information?

Asked by Keith about 9 years ago

Hi Keith, Unless you are applying for a management position, you really shouldn't need any references and I would suggest just saying "references available on request" on your C.V. Depending on your age, references should be people who have worked with you or a teacher if you haven't any work experience.Just remember to ask if it's ok to have them as a reference first.

What's the most difficult situation you have been in as a manager? How do you manage your time?

Asked by curious customer almost 10 years ago

Probably when the owners of the store had to travel overseas for a family matter so I had near no contact with them and had to make some important decisions without the owners input.

To manage time I arrive a little early, leave a little late and make sure to get enough sleep. I don't do much work outside of my work hours.

What's the longest sub you've ever made for Subway? What kinda sub was it?

Asked by Bill W. about 10 years ago

Well at our store we don't offer the "Giant Subs" so the longest would be just the normal foot long. We did have one customer come in and order a sub with extra of every meat, So it was a foot long ham with extra; Bacon, beef, steak, turkey, seafood, chicken strips, roast chicken, salami, pepperoni and chicken fillet - something ridiculous like that. we ended up having to open up another foot long bread and put that on top so it would all fit and it costed around $35 or something for the one sub.

How much subway restaurant cleaner salary?

Asked by Michael over 9 years ago

The point of this Q&A is to offer a first hand perspective on what it is like to work in a Subway restaurant as it is not something you can just easily find online. This is probably the 4th question that doesn't ask for my opinion or that perspective and just asks for "how mush should I get paid". It varies a lot and there are online tools that are easy to find and to use to help you with your answer. If you live in Australia, start here: http://www.fairwork.gov.au/pay.If you live in another country, I cannot help you.

Also the Subway fast food servers are expected to do the cleaning also, so there is no Subway 'cleaner' job title.

TL;DR - Stop asking me "how much should I get paid" you can easily find that information through a quick google search
