Archived Availability

[sher]

No need to get all snippy. [redacted]. Anyway, In some places there's laws and such about accommodating for religious people. In that situation it would actually matter. Only reason I asked. Religion is the only reason I could see that being approved in my store. I know a few people who don't have weekend availability, but they've been with target for forever and probably had no weekend availability from the beginning. And I knew a religious girl (she left) who had no Sunday availability.

Also asked because I'm just a generally nosey person. Kanyeshrug.

After reviewing first page, I'm assuming you took offense because you're lucky enough to have a weekend day marked as unavailable? I didn't mean it in an offensive way at all. I often imagine these forum situations as if they occurred in my store.. And under which circumstances they'd happen in my store. No shade. No tea.

No day is unavailable for me, I don't know where you got that idea.. My availability 4am-4pm 7 days a week.. Process teams.

My availability is similar, I refuse to work full weekends. To many weekends of doing a Saturday In-Stocks shift and my TL leaving the next Sunday open, but HR slotting in a 8hr market shift.. After a 4th quarter of that shit, I told them to stop it or I quit.. Cause they also pulled "needs of the business" on me. "Its awesome that you think I am that great but you better train some people cause every shift you schedule me, I am putting on the swap board and if not picked up calling out on it. Put your work life balance into effect or I will do it for you." It stopped.

The store screwed up by allowing all the days off in connection to his day off.. Sorry but the store needs to train some people. Cause on the other hand, if you have the time off to use, you have to be allowed to use it..

But they agreed to his day off, train someone ..

Oh?

Guess I read that wrong. Either way, idk why you seemed to be offended by the question.

Our Is person works Sunday only on weekends.

Did he join a church? Or he just demanded it just because?

Not that it matters, because it doesn't.

It sort of does. Federal law says if you need time off for religious reasons, they have to comply unless it would create an undue hardship.

For some, this may mean not working Sunday mornings or such. Religious reasons are not the case for this coworker. Being honest, as some of you have figured out, it is a GSA I am speaking of...so simply training an extra person isn't really an option without cutting everyone's hours...also, I think there is a head count limit to the number of GSAs a store can have?

@Bosch, I read the same thing @sher did and thought you were unavailable on Sundays since you said you would no longer work Sundays and would either put the shifts on the swap board or call out if needed until they stopped scheduling you.
