this was yesterday
dont think i've mentioned it, but i ended up un-quitting at Target because i realised it was dumb to quit when i was so close to graduating as it's a decent job with great pay for my age. when i talked to my main boss about it (a week after I put in my 2 weeks cus it took him that long to notice) he wanted me to stay, and we made the agreement that he'd schedule me 3-4 nights a week (as opposed to the reg 5-6) till end of school, cus work and school were collectively kicking my ass
well right from the get-go he completely ignored that, which he has a pattern of doing with other coworkers as well, and initially i was like whatever i've been doing this for 5 months who cares if i do it for a little longer. fast foward to this last sunday, right before the last week of school, working 5 nights this coming week, when a coworker is talking to one of our bosses in front of me. says she has to come in late on monday cus she's got a college exam. her shift is when mine usually would start but i'm not working that day, so i offered to cover her shift until she is able to come. that's not actually an option tho so i said i could take it for the night, not cus i wanted to work (i really dont) but so she wouldnt get potentially in trouble for missing work (theyre cracking down on attendance). well i regretted that cus i didnt really want her whole shift, plus parents coudnt get me that night, but cant really take it back when youve offered to help someone, plus i didnt mind so much cus it was actually helping a coworker instead of just "fOr thE gOod Of tHe cOmPanY".
WELL my boss who talked to us about it had to update the schedule manually w/ computer nstead of me being able to just pick up the shift thru the app cus of rules (cant schedule urself more than 8 days in a row or sumn) so she said "if i forget to update it, just have a different boss clock you in when you get here tomorrow" (you have to do that when ur not on the schedule). welllllll coworker who was giving me her shift didnt here this, so monday she saw that she was still scheduled and thought i had decided not to take it. So she calls big boss and tells him that she'll be late, but here's the annoying part: Boss who knew I took the shift told big boss, BUT he intentionally didnt tell coworker I took it, cus she mentioned it on the phone, and he, instead of saying "oh yeah she's covering you" stepped around it and said something like "we need as many as possible, just come when you can" so she thought i didnt. when i got there big boss had work assigned to both of us, i thought "strange but ok", she comes, late, and is like WAIt youre here?? I didnt have to come?? and Im like WAIIt youre here??? I didnt have to come??? so we both got cucked, and were both dissapointed cus we both have school we could have been doing if one of us didnt come.
now that means 6 out of 7 nights of work on my last week of school (30 hours of work), w/ friday my only day off, plus a bunch of school i have to do, plus i had to get an uber home last night which took half of what i earned that day lol. i dont think i'll be picking up shifts for people again :p
TLDR
picked up a shift to help coworker even tho i'm rlly busy with school, but boss tricked us into both showing up even tho only one of us needed to.
