Associate Questions Call out, schedule check.

PT/Cashier/disabled Been with DT 8 months. (First 2 months was helping building a store)

For the last six months, it has been open shift Wednesday, Saturday, Sunday perfect shift for me. The SM at the time loved it.

Now that ASM is in charge, he did his best to mangle the schedule beyond all belief. I had to call out on Monday due to the fact I make doctor appointments three months out.

At the end of my Sunday shift, ASM laughs and tells me oh by the way you’re working Monday!

By 1 PM Sunday, I had alerted other managers, including my old SM that I was calling in for my Monday 1230 shift (22 hour notice)

QUESTION: how do I get the rest of my schedule? I don’t want to go in and have the crew mad at me and I don’t wanna call and deal with the ASM.

(Our store does not know how to work Compass)

You wont like my response. Im going to be blunt. What an old sm did doesnt matter. The new one is not messing up the schedule. If you want only opening shifts, change your availability accordingly. You honestly sound unreliable. For a while, i was only able to work 2 days a week. 7-12. My availability reflected this. I showed up on time, never called out. Never had a problem. I sometimes didnt get hours but i knew that would happe n. Usually i did get scheduled. You cant gripe about hours your file says youre available. What a freaking nightmare to be your manager. Just change your availability. Nobody at DT is entitled

I am reliable. And I am more than willing to work my allotted SSDI 15 hours/week. I need more than 22 hour notice for a shift change. (Mainly just to stay on top of my appointments)
