So apparently our company needs to save money so they have been making cuts and modifications to our schedules. I used to be working 37 hours a week. I wasn’t getting the best shifts but I at least got 1-2 good shifts a week. Now I’m at 27 hours a week and I’m only getting the worst shifts. I don’t want to be too specific.
Anyways we have an opening shift and a closing shift. The opening shift is much more desirable. The opening shift gets 10-15 times the amount of cash tips than the closing shift, yet the closing shift is responsible for cleaning everything up, doing all the hard work.
I have only been getting closing shifts since they started this new schedule. They are giving preferential treatment to the other employees and giving me all the shit because my schedule is more versatile I suppose.
Anyways I called out today and the manager was panicking. I told him the reason was because I had a late night and wasn’t feeling it, though that’s not exactly true. I am frustrated and feel disrespected, that is why. Should I tell them?
I don’t need this job, I have another one, but it is nice to have this job as long as I can get some opening shifts.
I would be happy to do some closing shifts if it was spread more evenly amongst our employees, however I am exclusively handling closing shifts now and it is really beyond disrespectful what they are doing to me, in my opinion.
