This also happened with the company as well. Who would always ask you to fill in for extra hours & shifts, often last minute, as so many people would either walk off the job, and quit (due to clients/or residents). Or because of how the company was run (employer, themselves). So anyway, I was like hired something like part time 25 hrs per & the would routinely work 60-80. Anyway, at one point, I began to just say "No." (even if it wasn't the case). So that they'd get used to that, being sometimes the response, and could adjust. Which they eventually, begrudginly did. Well,, they never stopped asking you see/ ? But they did begin to start talking it better when... they would have supervisors record the time they'd contacted you. How long or what time you'd responsdeed. And then also, what your reason or excuse was, for not being able to pick it up. They would then use this against you, in or for the future, when ever they could, or saw fit. They're policy was also, sans a dr's note: you were responsible for getting coverage for your shift if you were ill or sick. So what that resulted in, ,was workihng with a lot of sick co-worker s & staff. Which led to a lot more people getting sick in the winter time & flu season. As every body was contacting the few available & such at once. Brillinat stuff. ;D hahaa @AmberMarie ~
