We had a call out for the overnight shift tonight which, since we are down 3 people on that shift already means we are stretched thin as it is and is becoming hard to find someone to fill whenever someone calls out with a family emergency on the weekends for the overnight.
I've been avoiding overtime for a couple months now ever since the manager declined to give me any of the open morning shifts, saying that he doles morning shifts out solely on seniority. Up till this point I was praised as the hardest one working here and always being available when needed, but when he gave morning shifts to another co-worker who frequently calls out, generally avoids work period, and lies to get attention at others expense I declined to put anymore effort into the job. And then the guy ahead of me on the totem pole changed his mind and was unavailable to work mornings the manager told me I wasn't getting anymore morning shifts.
So when the supervisor called the manager to let him know about the call out he put him in speaker phone (he always does) I was in the room. The manager asked who was working and the supervisor ran off the list of people who were working on the current shift, when he my name the manager interrupted him and started going on about how “op is less then helpful nowadays because he was butthurt about how I wouldn't give him morning shifts”
It was everything I could just to hold in the laughter and glee I felt at hearing his complaints, the much sweatier supervisor walked away so I couldn't hear the rest of his rant much to my disappointment.
