[UPDATE!] Quite the Fuck-up
5 years ago
General
So... I'm essentially a dead man walking in terms of my current job, either I misread the most recent overtime schedule OR it got changed on me after I read it... because I THOUGHT I was supposed to work today, (Nov 8th) BUT apparently I was ACTUALLY supposed to work yesterday (the 7th)
Now WHY that is a fuck-up... and a small rant:
My job has/had a terrible attendance policy... now the way scheduling worked is as follows... 12 hour shifts, broken up into chunks across a two week period, translating into 7 days of work in two weeks... NOW barring overtime scheduling that means there's roughly 182 days in a year we have to work... realistically you get hit for overtime about once every three weeks, so for ease of math we'll round up and say 200 days in the year of sheduled work... NOW we can only miss EIGHT days in a one-year stretch... that's not 8 days per year, that's 8 days in a 365 day timeframe! So... if we assume 0 'points' at the start of the year and are scheduled for 200 days of work... on that 8th point you get fired... so to break the math down... 8/200 = 4/100 = 1/25.... so you see, missing basically ONE DAY A MONTH (and a half) gets you fired... 8/200 is ALSO 4%.... so at a 96% attendence rate.... you get fired.... how absolute BULLSHIT is that?!
now then... as one can probably assume, I hit my 8th point just now... because either someone changed the schedule on me, or I misread something that's written in like 8pt font... EITHER WAY... I'm essentially now unemployed so... unfortunately after I finally get a backlog uploaded I'm going to have to get no more art
Sorry to everyone for giving even more bad news in an already shitty year, even though THIS news is much more minor than other news...
Also if you'd be so kind as to help... follow me on my twitch at https://www.twitch.tv/hethdrakiel
unless a miracle happens I'm going to have plenty of stream time now
