Dec 6, 2015 I been working full time for a little over a month and a half now, bustin my chops and bending over backwards to make a good impression. I've come in maybe 5 times on my day off per request to cover shifts. Sunday and Monday are my usual days off but the other day I was asked to give up my Monday off for a 5am-2pm shift. That's fine, I said sure, but then my day off today (Sunday) I get a text asking if I can come in. First time I had to say no to my employer cuz this some bs.
Dec 6, 2015 I feel you on that. My job does the same thing but I've learned that if they ask you to do that, than I always do it unless I'm really sick because then they see your dependable and can be a vital asset in the workplace
Dec 6, 2015 they know I'd come in for them basically whenever, but it's rare they need someone when I'm not already working
Dec 6, 2015 I work 6 days a week so they usually won't call me so I don't hit 40 cause I'm part time but it depends on what time they want me to go in at. Morning I'll probably say yeah but if it's night then I most likely made plans already.
Dec 6, 2015 yeah that's where my heads been at too. I'm 19 and been there less than 2 months and I'm already a go-to for the supervisors and management staff. I think I'm regretting saying no cuz they recently had an opening for a position with a salary increase. I'm still gonna talk to them about it but I think I might've chosen my first no at the wrong time lmao. see that's the opposite of the company I work for. it has a weirdly high turn over rate and ppl love to call in sick because there's s--- all being done about the overuse of sick days.
Dec 6, 2015 we have a bad turn over rate too, and a loooooooot of s-----y employees, but it's just that day shift doesn't really call in night shift people, and I somehow manage to work every single night where somebody f---s up and either doesn't show up or call, or calls off, so I just get to be there while we're getting royally f----- anyways
Dec 6, 2015 It happens once in a while and I always come in unless I have something planned. If it was up to me I'd try to pick up at least an extra shift every paycheck, that time and a half is nice.
