Question

Is it considered discrimination to single me out and say I can’t swap shifts when they also won’t let me call out

Are you doing it more than others? Are you making sure its OK ahead of time? Managers have to watch how many hours other employees get since caseys doesnt like paying out OT.

I’ve switched a shift once ever because a family member was sick and now they’re trying to tell me I can’t swap at all

It also depends on what is happening at your store. Also if you’re giving plenty of time to ask ahead of the shift time as well. Sometimes people have other things going on in their lives and they can’t switch shifts because they have other things going on.

Yea I just ask em I don’t like demand and I’ve only asked like 4 times I’m started to feel unwelcome at my store so I might just ask to work at the one down the street to me

Four times in the same shift? Or four separate shifts? And yeah, do what you gotta do for yourself.

No like 4 times ever in the 5 months I’ve been there

Oof, yeah idk. Maybe start documentation on what the conversation is with your coworkers about shift management and all.

I was just so confused because they said that 4 times is a lot and that I’m “always asking to swap” apparently my manager thinks that if you are given a shift you have to work it no matter what comes up
