I work on a floor where it is difficult to get a shift swap, which I thought was odd when I first started here. I don't mind switching and I often switch when someone asks. Our schedule is different every week, I don't think a weekday for a weekday should be a big deal for people. I have taken on a lot of weekend nights for people even. The one time I asked for a swap, I expected one of these people to swap with me. Several said no. Ok, no more swaps from me then. But tonight takes the cake! Someone BEGGED me for a swap. I gave a firm no since she has burned me before when I needed one, but gave in when she cried and gave some bs sob story. Well, she called out! I got a message from the floor manager saying that I really need to be at work tonight because our "approved swap" fell through when she called off. That is not my fault and I need to know ahead of time to sleep if I am working night shift. Sorry, not coming in. I will be in on Thursday for my end of the swap. UGH. I hate people. I have not called or responded to the voicemail since I got it so late. I know I need to, but I am not going to get railroaded into going in to work.
