A lack of adequate planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine.

No doubt answered with "we're a family here" nonsense, all while the company makes record profits and the executives get compensated with a giant bag of cash. Yuck.

"Okay, cool. Family knows when to drop a subject. Good luck!"

Nice. I'll have to remember that retort!

I believe that this, particularly, is why many fast food restaurants are closing way earlier than they did several years ago. No, it isn't because of the pandemic. It's because someone (Gen Z) finally got fed up with the bullshit of managers dictating when they can work as opposed to a fixed schedule. No, no one should ever have to bear the burden of "picking up a shift" - that's just shitty management and has been for around 60 years. We've all just bowed our heads and accepted that we need a job. Gen Z said, collectively, "Wait, what?" and the world will be better for it. Under no circumstance should someone ever be forced to work 2nd shift one day and early mornings the next.
