I have never had a retail job till now and I was wondering if it is normal to just not be able to have time off outside of your days off during December? I also heard that the RM was gonna essentially see who will be requesting time off as a performance evaluation criteria to cut hours after holiday because she only wants people “who want to work here”. Pretty sure that's blatant retaliation tactics but she said it only to our manager so I can't do anything about that. My coworker said they already mentioned to her that they won't be able to see their family this year bc of the time off restriction and she just said “haha sorrryyyy”. (I hate this company so much)
TLDR: If you try to take time off in December, your hours will be cut (essentially quiet fired.) Is this normal?
