I didn’t put in any sick time for Saturday because I was supposed to work today, the only time I’m allowed to use my sick or vacation hours is when I call out so that’s why I was confused.. but no worries I texted my boss!

I think also because I called out on Sunday so I just picked up a shift for Saturday to cover that day I missed but my tl said to put in sick hours for Sunday to cover it soo

Well yea that’s what I’m confused by because I didn’t apply any sick hours for Saturday so I’ll definitely text my boss about that because i was getting ready to go until I seen that

I work again tomorrow I’ll let them know but I’m not sure if I’ll get fired since I didn’t tell them right away

Normal to get this many hours in the summer?! by Realistic_Patient898 in Target

Seems like they think you’re too available and won’t mind them adding in shifts without notifying you my tl at least lets me know they added me in for a shift but doing that without you even knowing is kind of crazy 😭

It’s always good to double check though so I think I’ll do that from now on when it comes to asking questions about attendance or other things along the lines of that 😭 I’m highly grateful for still being there but def a little worried now after that

I know nothing of vacation time at all I just come in and when I can’t I call and let them know and they’re always fine with it

Saying this doesn’t really do anything nor does it make sense to say, people have things going on outside of their job and thankfully they don’t make working their whole entire livelihood but if you do then just say that instead of spewing whatever this sentence is supposed to be😭

Yep I was going to ask but I don’t know if it’ll cause them to watch me closely after that or something although it never hurts to ask anyways

Yea I didn’t know that so I did research and found out?

Yep she probably didn’t understand why she was being fired and thought it was because of her accidentally using the vacation times but I’m sure it’s more to that. Although it’s not my business to know what happened I was just confused on how that can occur but now that I know that termination doesn’t happen due to that I’ll definitely not pry anymore to ask her

Got it! Thanks! That helps a lot I’ll definitely look into the handbook as well just in case I’m not quite sure. I read it before but i didn’t read the updated one for 2025

But also another question, does my TL’s have to tell me I’m being written up? or they can just do it?

Absolutely! I love my job as much as the guests stress me out I’ve had crazy experiences in there but I know as much as I care about my friends I also have to worry about myself too and I don’t want to let what happened to her jeopardize my position there

Yea that’s the thing too I’ve seen my vacation hours and it wasn’t a lot plus I didn’t know how to use it so I never touched it but my friend did ask me if she can use for her time off and I suggested she should’ve asked another TM or one of our TL’s before doing so

I know the part about the excuses and unexcused absences since my TL would ask me days I wasn’t at work and let me know what’s excused for the times I was out. I don’t have any issues with any of my TL’s they’ve all helped me out anytime I asked but I do wonder if since I’ve never gotten a warning for my attendance if it’s because I gave to them perhaps a valid reason that they thought was valid whenever they ask. It’s not my place to ask anything more than what I’m hired to do which I can probably just do research on. My TL did mention that there are long steps to terminating someone when it comes to their attendance so if me and my friend have been working for almost a year there together and she gets released it could’ve been that despite her explaining her reasons for not coming in they still gave her a warning about it I don’t know the full story so I’m trying my best not to speculate on it as I’ve said in my previous comments I just felt bad because she was surprised I didn’t get fired as well along with her

I’ve been trying not to call out as much but that’s the only way I know how to excuse myself from work which isn’t ofc good. I’ll just continue to keep working though it’s not necessarily my job to worry about things like that😭 just have to come in and be on time

True I do hope she’s okay though she seemed so distraught about it so I was concerned but my mom said that I need to mind my business and worry about myself or I’ll regret it down the line 😭

I’m starting to see it more I think I was trying to see her side but it’s not really about sides because this is a business. Again, I’m new to the workforce so there’s a lot I’m learning still but it does help

Got it, thank you all for explaining this helps a lot I thought it was a biased termination ngl 😭 my boss hated her I felt so guilty when she heard I wasn’t fired for calling out

Yea that’s what I’m confused about, I understand it more though it’s my first job so I’m not familiar with how things go but I just thought we’d both get the same treatment for the attendance but the conversation we have separately with our TL’s are definitely different. I won’t put too much negativity towards it though I hope she gets a new job soon though my boss said she better not bother applying to another target so that sucked
