I work in care work, caring for the elderly in their homes. The company I have been working for was hiring causal only but told me that they had so much need for workers that I would definitely get full time hours. This was a lie lol, I never got a shift longer than three hours and never got more than 10 hours a week. It took me a while to find another job but luckily my parents were able to help.
Because I got another job I needed weekends free, so I left them a message telling them that unfortunately I would have to stop working on weekends immediately, which I know is difficult on their end, but they took away my shifts last minute sometimes. In any case I checked and they just took away all my shifts, which would be ok but I still wanted to keep one client that I really like.
I’m not sure if it’s a miscommunication, but I’m positive I told them that it was just weekends. It’s just frustrating. But also I guess it’s good that I’m finally leaving, stuff like this was happening constantly. They are a company that primarily takes advantage of immigrants and tells people they have full time hours when they don’t. Even my clients have had bad experiences with the company.
