Re: Work Availability
 

Here's a regulation I would use... "Screw you." Just tell them that and it will all be fine.

I would just tell them that you had already marked that day as unavailable and even though it's a holiday, the new computerized system failed to take into account the rehearsal for the play. And that's that. It's their responsibility to find someone to cover for their failed system, not yours.

yeah if you want to get fired you could go with the "screw you" but if your gonna do that you may as well blow it out of proportion by saying "Screw you, and of you corporate whores"...yeah dont ask...i jsut applied at safeway...i have 2 lives gaming and school so...

If you are in a union, you can complain about issues with schedualing, however, being that it is a holidy, it might bend the rules.

Holidays = work, I learned that fairly fast as a Jewel employee. And, on the rare occassion that I didn't work a holiday (Thanksgiving, to be exact), I worked 3 or 4 days in a row before, and 3 or 4 days in a row after.

Don't go, but call in and tell them you're not going. They might be pissed, but at least you will have warned them in advance. And, if you don't mind loosing the job, and a future reference, tell them off. But, I'd opt to go a more mature route, myself.

exactly right!


tell them that you gave the, your availability when you applied for the job. since the computer booked you outside of the given availability, you should not be expected to come to work. as well as the fact that you have something else to attend to. it will be up to them to find a replacement for you since it was their mistake to book you for that day.

My mom told me employers aren't allowed to say anything negative about their former employees when providing a reference. I know that sounds silly considering the point of a reference is develop an idea of what kind of person the prospective employee is but our legal system has all kind of crazy policies and stuff so it really doesn't surprise me. I mean, I guess it would be kind of like a form of slander. Maybe it's only in California though?
