[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It all depends on her reasoning for saying "No" OP.

Did she decline because she already had made holiday plans? If that is the case, then maybe she already had a plan in place to do something fun w/her friends.

Or did she just decline just to be difficult?
If that is the case, then I say from now on, do not be flexible w/her if she won't be the same w/you.[/quote]

We didn't ask for specific dates for her to make it up, said we could find ones that work, which makes me inclined to believe she is just being difficult. [/quote]

The lack of specificity might have been part of the issue, and she doesn't want to set a precedent for you swapping hours around on her constantly. I offer to make up hours for my employers when I miss a few hours here and there for doctor's appointments or snow. That being said, it would not be okay with me if they began to have a regular expectation of swapping hours. I've said it on here before, I firmly believe that evening and weekend hours are more valuable and not an even swap. Surely you can see that her doing it is not the same as you doing it. You are the one in charge, so there's a power imbalance to such requests, and it's her time we are talking about. She can volunteer it as she pleases, but you can't volunteer it for her. [/quote]
