hoveringsombreroi just remembered that i'd forgot to ask scheduling a question
then i had an even better idea
see there's three types of schedules at my workplace
fulltime (am or pm)
partime (am or pm)
just weekends
you can do something called a temporary schedule change for a month
say if you're full time you can go part time for a month.
and as long as you don't do that for more than 3 months in a row (90 days)
you keep your status as your original status and don't lose senority.
so, subject is birthday trip with biff in feb
i had, when first hired, pondered a temp change to part time for that month.
but partime is still 5 days a week, just short shifts.
my question was going to be if i could change to weekends for just a week.
but the temp change is for a month, and i'm sure it wouldn't work that way.
and i thought i couldn't temp change to just weekends for a WHOLE month, i'd lose too much money.
but then DING! idea.
people are constantly giving away hours.
so i could change to weekends for feb
then for all the weeks in feb EXCEPT the trip week
i could take other people's hours
so i'd still get my 40 hours a week the rest of the month
and if there's over time availble i might even be able to make up for the trip and not actually see a loss in pay.
i can smart!
that's a whole lot less stressfull then coming down to a week before the trip, with everything paid for and having to find a way to give away all those hours.
