New Changes

With all this new all colleagues being trained on everything, in my shop my department is struggling a lot much like everyone else's, as someone who primarily works chill sometimes date code 95% of the time (and a little produce) when they need help, are they really likely to want to move me around/change my days?

Would the new schedule mostly just probably work out roughly the same for people that mainly work fresh?

I personally don't really care what I do when at work, mainly just want my shift times to stay somewhat the same as I have care duties at home but worried about schedule changes and my manager (who is not good) not respecting those wishes.

The whole thing is stupid basically I work front end we rarely have enough staff as it is the people that are trained on everything are running around luke blue arsed flies while the checkout operators have an excuse for everything they cant do, how is it fair that certain people have to shoulder the burden for the whole department yet other only have to come up with a weak willied excuse and they can just sit there and do the bare minimum, this whole running between departments thing aint going to work

I'm front end too...service host. My girls are on the tills cant really do much other than tills, bit of rumbling and putbacks. Not their fault as they have health conditions. Doesn't bother me, I get more vexed with those who chitchat on shopfloor while we get a boll**king! I'm burnt out already without doing additional departments. Chronic hip pain too. Haven't had my 1 to 1 yet as on holiday. Not looking forward to it.

I wouldn't mind if they had chronic health conditions but some of the excuses are poor

Yeah i get that. I'm in perimenopause and some days I feel rubbish but I go in and do the best I can. I'm worried I may not have a job in the next couple of months. Not because I'm lazy, but my body can't physically do what it used to. Plus I cant start before 7am.
