Mothers on Nightshift

(Yes I recognize the title may come off as creepy).

Just wanted to extend a happy Mother’s Day to my favorite community.

I know not everyone here is in America, but regardless of location, thank you for all you do!

Y’all aren’t recognized enough 👏🏻🥳

Drive-Thru: “Okay that will be $13.00 even - would you like to round up today?”

Me: “Round to…what?”

They call it a "corrective action" but we can all cut the bullshit and call it what it really is.

What for you ask? Oh, 2nd shift failed to action on something and somehow its my fault on 3rd. If it didn't make the pass-down to be seen to then why am I at fault?

I even mentioned how I get there early to make sure the handover is quality and not rushed - something I do on my own accord and don't mark down on my timesheet to expect compensation.

Then I got fussed at for getting there early to do that.

So guess whose ass isn't arriving early to my shift tonight!

Another case of damned if I do/damned if I don't. 🙃

I have an upcoming trip at the end of the month.
I purchased the plane tickets many months ago.
Once I did so, I let my supervisor/team know.

Knowing it was many months in advanced, I have since reminded my supervisor of the dates as they are coming up soon.

Now I’m being told that not only did I originally advise too early, but there’s no guarantee of coverage, and it’s my responsibility to find said coverage, even if I’m using PTO.

Isn’t the whole point of advising early on is so the person in charge of managing the schedule can form it accordingly? Regardless of PTO allowing for paid-time-off, one can also call it “prepare-the-others.”

Feel like this a very damned if I do/damned if I don’t situation; I notify too early and I get fussed at. If I mentioned too close to game time there absolutely wouldn’t be coverage no matter what!

Basically I want to kick a wall.
