[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My dd works at a chain coffee place and she has 1 shift a week right now. She can occasionally pick up one or two more. They have so many employees. [/quote] I find this hard to believe (generally). If all these places have so many employees wanting extra shifts why are they also so often short staffed because someone called in sick? Seems like there would be lots of people willing to work that extra shift? How can there be so many but not enough at the same time?[/quote] Because they all use dynamic scheduling software and don’t let you know your shifts until last minute. People have to cobble together a bunch of jobs and so if someone just doesn’t show it’s hard to find someone available at the last minute. That’s 100x more common than a worker actually giving any kind of notice by calling in sick. [/quote]
