And me.
And me.
My family is too amazing, they'll be doing Thanksgiving a little bit earlier so that i can enjoy it much as possible.
If you are really good & do the work of three tm's in half of time. I would ask you to stay.
Since there was a long discussion about me specifically calling out and risking my job in this thread I wanted to make a quick update. I did end up calling out for my Thanksgiving shift, and I didn't even receive so much as a verbal coaching when I got back. Missed out on the time and a half but got to spend a wonderful Thanksgiving with my family which was more than worth it.
Don't think for a second that it wasn't noticed or recorded though. Those with chronic histories of certain things can be flagged and then any little thing can start you down the path for termination. Calling out seems harmless enough, but it IS noticed.
Pull, you calling out Christmas Eve, too?
Won't be scheduled for it so it doesn't matter. Mondays aren't on my availability.
So how many people actually did call out on thanksgiving?
Just because it's not your "availabilty" doesn't mean you won't get scheduled. The way it was explained to me was that you set your availabity for the days you have work at another job, school, or something in that category. No one has school on Christmas (that I know of) so Target figures, no school, they can work.
So don't get your hopes up that you won't be scheduled. Could be lucky and get it off but don't assume that since you're not "available" that day, that they won't make you work.
Just because you weren't coached doesn't mean you aren't being performanced out without your knowledge. I'm surprised they haven't overridden your Monday availability. I know there's been talk of doing that for my not being available on Wednesdays for the day after Christmas. We'll see.
