We finally got word at work that we are changing schedules. We are transitioning from 12-hour shifts (3 days one week, 4 days the next) to 8-hour shifts (5 days/week, every week).
Which is good. It’s great. Finally.
Except that the transition is scheduled for the first weekend of May. When I’ll be out of town. Where I was planning on having that Monday and Tuesday off. And now I don’t. I don’t have enough vacation time to cover those days because I’m using it all in taking the previous week off. And the schedule is now such that I can’t switch days with anyone, because everyone works every day.
Scratchafrick.
I’m hoping that, on account of the fact that they only gave us two weeks notice and not 30 days like they said they would, they’ll let me slide and pay me for at least one of those days.
Yay. Boo. Hopefully in a couple weeks this will all be moot.
