Posted schedule vs text

[Lord of Cardboard]

So we had a posted schedule Friday night, start time 1630. Today (Monday) several of us get a text saying start time is now 1645. What's everyone's thoughts on this and what does the contract say?

In the central, the one posted before the end of your last scheduled day of work last week is correct. They might try to sound tough, but they can't do anything if you ignore the text.

But again, that's in the central. Your supplement may be different.

Any input from North East members?

Here they can change your start time by 15 minutes if they give you an hour's notice, anything more than that you have to be notified by the end if your shift. But I'm sure it's different everywhere.

16:30 in the 177. No changes allowed.

16:30 in the 177. No changes allowed.

Changes of one hour or less require 24 hour notice and those of an hour or more require 72 hours notice.

Our start time is for the week.

My thought is you should open the damn contract book for your supplement and read the gotdamned thing instead of being lazy.

Now you did it. The OP's feelings are hurt.

It's 15 minutes. I don't even understand how this is a concern.

Either they can under your supplement and you have no contractual right to the 15 min from 1630 to 1645 or they can't, and you do. Show up at 1630 and request your start time. They'll likely put you on doing something either way. Course you might not like what they assign you to do but grit you teeth and bear it, it's only 15 m.

Melting snowflake, I'm devastated. Scooby, I just looked, my supplement did not have YOUR thoughts.....

I find this post cocky and mean spirited - reported.

 

[Indecisi0n]

They need 24 hours notice to changed a schedule here.

The schedule when changed shall be posted by the Employer on Monday to become effective on the following Monday. (New England supplement.)

Yes it's only 15 min but when you are PT that 15m means a lot to you. Also in a lot of places anything after 5 hours is OT. I want my 15 min so my OT comes that much faster.

In that case it is even more clear the OP should do as I suggest. If his supplement does not allow for start time changes like this then he is contractually entitled to the 15 min. If his supplement does allow the change, he can always ask to be put on and might get the 15 min anyway.
