'Safe'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Thanks! I have had a couple of things that were "taken care of" and my manager didn't want to do this but she said she knew it wasn't a behavioral problem just more of things happening but it showed up from corporate so she had to.
Well there was a little bit of an indignant - "But! why aren't they making an exception for me!" But I also know there's a difference between getting a little leeway and not being held accountable at all.
Bad management, bad policy. Shit like that is why employers are struggling so much to hire anyone.
Yeah, that's some bullshit.
Timelies all!
Happy Birthday meara!
I think if I was out with the flu then all those absences would be counted as 1 occurrence. And they used to give us more leeway on certain things. I know when Mom had her stroke I was told (because everyone who called out was told this) that it would be considered an occurrence but when I talked to my then assistant manager and she told me to worry about it. And then they worked out me being out for a few weeks. But again this was pre pandemic and we had as many people working in the mens' active section then as we have for the entire mens department now.
Edited- the other reality is that if too many people call out in a day they have to scramble around to see if people can cut their lunch short or stay late so we can meet our allotted hours. If we don't then we risk next month having reduced hours based on what hours we used during the current month. Which sucks but we don't have any wiggle room at this point.
They had a hiring thing on Saturday and there were 6 people who applied and out of those 5 people were going to get interviews and we are going into the holidays and I honestly don't know what is going to happen then.
Askye, that just sucks. I have had similar “write-ups” where the person writing me up has told me they don’t want to do it.
Gulf Coast/NOLA is getting hammered hard. Looks like it came in Cat 4 which is stronger than Katrina. Hopefully the levees hold, but there's still going to be so much wind damage.
I need this skirt, yes? [link]
Yes. Adorable.

Yes! Also, if you wear it around Jessica she'll reenact the Wicker Man scene with Nicholas Cage for you.

For me, but not *with* me, right?
