What Do I Do About My Shift Next Saturday?

[abbeyleigh]

I tried to book next Saturday off to go to the rugby and it got declined so I've checked my rota and been giving an evening shift but don't plan on turning up. What do I do?

[abbeyleigh]

I'm going to tell them I can't come in not just no show

[THECORBYLOON]

Do you need to give them a specified notice period if you change your mind about working on a particular day?

[THECORBYLOON]

What percentage of folk there are on zero hours contracts?

[abbeyleigh]

Nope. They've also put me in for Sunday that out of my availability and when it's out of your availability you don't have to work it

[tiggerblue10]

Is this at McDonald's or have you started a new job?

[abbeyleigh]

Mcdonalds

"when it's out of your availability you don't have to work it"

You seemingly don't need to work when a shift IS within your availability.

Do you think other employers would be so accomodating?

[abbeyleigh]

Yes that why I ask about working hours if not advertised.

[THECORBYLOON]

Do you want to work only on zero hours contracts?

[abbeyleigh]

No the jobs I'm applying for Monday to Friday

[THECORBYLOON]

If you're on a zero hours contract and you don't need to give specific notice that you're not going to work on a certain date after telling them you would, why do you ask us what you should do when you appear to have no intention of going in anyway?
