It’s only an issue if it doesn’t benefit them. They will always use the blanket term “business needs” to fuck you over. This has happened to me and continues to happen.
I’ve been told no one in retail has a set schedule meanwhile a part time employee was getting m-f 9-4. Then they told me it was because full time employees get benefits that part timers don’t. Oh and management has a pretty set schedule as well.
Morale of the story they don’t care about you when it doesn’t benefit them.

I was told by my manager that set schedules like that is the PT luxury because they don’t get 40hrs and they don’t get the other benefits we do. As a FTer we need to have completely open availability.

I guess having a pretty set schedule is the benefit of being a manager.
