Do other ODTMs have issues being scheduled shifts you did not agree to or pick up on the app? I got an email on 10/10 asking for availability for the end of October and then also for Black Friday weekend and the following week. I gave them time for the end of October (which they didn't...

Oh yeah, I am an idiot and didn't even think of that. Makes complete sense.

So I got an email from HR today asking when my next shift was going to be and what my availability will be for summer. I thought it was weird, considering I am working on Friday and they could just look at the schedule, but asking about my availability was even weirder because I thought the...

In regards to being able to be hired as an ODTM I find it interesting that on the job description page it says you need to work at least once every 6 months or your employment will be terminated when they just changed it to 4 weeks. Also, at my store at least, hours to pick up on myTime have...

I went on the app this morning with no issues. I just tried going on the site on my laptop and it said my password was wrong. I was still logged in to the app so I logged out of that and tried to log back in an no luck. I went to the trouble logging in link and clicked reset password and went...

I love the part about responding to their attempts to contact you. I have emailed both my ETL and several different HR people for asking about shifts when I was getting close to the 6 weeks and there were no hours available and when I have been put on a shift without my taking it on the app...

So I worked today and my direct ETL worked and never said anything to me about the 4 week rule, so who the hell knows. I did just log on to the app and saw that I randomly am scheduled for a shift the exact same hours I worked today for a day in a few weeks. I didn't take the shift on my own...

I was thinking the same thing. I have worked twice since reading on here about the four week requirement and they haven't said anything to me about it when I was in. I am also very dependable and just do what I need to do when I am there. I also have very good numbers, so they tend to like it...

So, HR called a few weeks ago to ask me my availability for Thanksgiving weekend. I emailed them back and gave them availability on Saturday and Sunday. They responded to ask about Friday, so I gave them a short amount of time I was available. They emailed back and said great we will put you...

I had this same issue and switched to On-Demand and it has been great. Maybe that could work for you. Good luck.

Switching to On Demand has saved my sanity. Now, instead of working 8.5 hours both weekend days, along with my regular full time job, I can pick and chose when I work. I can work it around kids' sports schedules or just have a free weekend. Working a few shorter shifts a month still gives me...

Yeah, that's how it's been for a while so when I read this on FB I was hoping that the person was not accurate. This was the post: "Now that we are expected to go to work even with positive test results, I feel like we should really be pushing the idea of hazard pay again." They then went on...

So I read on a FB group that said that TMs who are asymptomatic but test positive are still expected to go to work. Is this accurate?

You’re absolutely right. I was actually thinking about that very situation-new ETL coming in, looking at a report and thinking I’m an attendance issue. If it happens again I am going to talk to them about that and to HR as well. My attendance has been almost perfect in my 3.5 years with...

So my ETL told me today that he put me on the schedule and if I could work the shifts, great, if not, no big deal. He said he put me on because he had a ton of hours to use for the week. I have no idea if he plans to do it every week. I told him I would do the Saturday one as scheduled, but...
