Nature of calls was to to request that i work a extra shift..do a double shift for someone else that had called in..and we are required to find our own replacements when we call in sick like that and i always do find my own but seems no one ever calls me except management for that other person that has called in..thats another whole sore subject with me..i think it would only be fair we all have to find our own replacements and not make it where some dont have to and management find it for them. I already feel my work schedule is having a adverse effect on my sleep and my health...a normal week for me would be Saturday off ..Sunday 4pm to 12 pm ..Monday 6a to 2p and turn around and come right back in at midnight to 8am Tuesday and Tuesday midnight to 8am Wednesday and a Thursday 4p to 12a...now this changes quite often and i do work doubles on monday evenings/midnight and sometimes days on Thursdays instead of the evening shift. And other times they will completetly change me to all midnights for a week and 6 of them instead of 5.
I do think my whole sleep pattern is messed up for the rest of my life. I actually love the work i do so that is why i find it so hard to leave this job..its just the management that really i can not stand.
I have worked there for 17 yrs and not until just recently has things like this got bad. Kinda hard to leave a job after that long when u do love the work u do...but i do think about it sometimes. Anyway thank you all for your ideas and comments.
