Basically, my boss tried to ruin my birthday plans to see a concert Saturday night in a city a few hours away by scheduling me way earlier than I normally work on Sunday. I went anyway and called out, to which I received a nasty response telling me that I’m a crappy person for doing so.
I’ve been covering shifts at another store of the same corporation nearby. When I got there today that manager told me that my original manager said he was taking the shifts that I’m already scheduled for and refusing to schedule me again (he didn’t tell me this). This is because I called off…one time.
The good news is, the manager at the other store immediately filled in the shifts I lost and is scheduling me at her store for the same amount of hours I originally had, so the only thing my manager’s bitch fit cost was a reliable employee at his store.
