I was wondering is this an official job title for anyone or do they just fill it with a swing driver or volunteer every Saturday?
I ask because I initially started as a midday Tuesday through Saturday and then switched to days, but my schedule is still tues-sat.
At no point between both job offers was I told I may need to run a shuttle to our nearest bigger station or sometimes even the airport.
We all run normal day routes on Saturday's and they would like someone to stay and run the shuttle after their route. That could easily make someones saturday turn into an 11 to 12 hour day.
They are asking for "volunteers" but im pretty sure their wont be any because most of us are tues-sat and saturday is the only descent night we have off, especially if you're a midday.
Sometimes they wouldnt even give notice until the morning of, like "hey can you run the shuttle?" which I think is pretty bad.
Is this something I could decline without getting myself in trouble?
That kind of changes the job quite a bit when most of your Saturday is wiped out as well, without saying anything about running a shuttle until months after you were hired on.
How is this handled at your station?
