I keep getting cancelled at work. I work 12 hour shifts, and I've been cancelled on average about 1 12-hour shift per week for the past 5 weeks. People keep telling me that cold and flu season is going to kick in and it won't be an issue. But it's getting to the point of where I can't afford to pay my bills.
Has this been a consistent problem for other people? Has anyone had to change jobs because of this? Some of the people I work with have second jobs, which definitely helps. I wouldn't mind getting a second job, I just hate the idea of being scheduled to work 6 nights a week in the hopes of actually working 3-4 of them. What kind of life is that?
Has anyone seen this become a trend where you work? How do you cope?
