*Phew*

It is time for a non-vacationy/non-private rant post.  Recently at work we got a new store manager, and when she took over, she also took over doing the schedule.  Yes, she’s messed with some people’s normal schedules (for me it’s been relatively minor) but this upcoming week was a doozy (and not her fault).  For like half of this upcoming week, on the request-off page, someone wrote my name, and since she didn’t know my handwriting, she naturally assumed I needed those days off for whatever reason.  I mentioned it to the manager that was there Thursday when I saw it (Roy) and he said to either come in or call over the weekend and talk to Angie about it.

This morning I came in and talked to her, and told her Roy showed me the request off page it was not me that wrote it and asked to me written into Wednesday & Friday.  I was a little apprehensive about it going in, but it worked in my favor.  She saw that staff-wise we could use me those 2 days (which will give me my whole normal schedule), and I showed her where I did request off for June (Cedar Point) and July (Camping at Shelby), so now she knows my writing and how I put my name when I DO request off.
