So, I began working for this company about a month ago. My first mistake was putting myself on available I their scheduling system for pretty much until mid-october, indicating I am able to work.
For context: I work security on different locations.
Now – queue the issues: It feels like they don't look or care how they schedule people. For example I had a 23:00 'til 07:00 scheduled then followed by a 15:00 'till 23:00, giving me (excluding driving to and from and the hour of wind-down/wake-up) 4 hours of sleep. So I called them out on it (This ain't the first time) which they obliged to making me start 2 hours later. But to my surprise they also changed the initial 23:00 shift to start at 19:00.
I had a 12 hour shift as well today, which after an hour of being on location was mentioned by the person who ordered (other company) us to be there it got cancelled. Scheduling knew, but forgot to relay it properly. Time and gas wastes…
Am I missing something about how it all works now with all the shortages in staffing?
Sorry, bit of a vent..
