LOVE getting a UKG notification saying both my vacations were refused.
My store sucks normally and our store managers are some of the lousiest. I've been here for 5.5 years (5 in pickup, just switched to Bakery in Jan cuz I couldn't take it anymore) and no matter who's in charge, store management has always done me dirty with scheduling and vacations but this is the first time I've ever seen them CANCEL my vacation or anyone else's for that matter.
I know next week is Memorial day, but it's the week that THEY picked for me on our department's vacay schedule. I put in my requests for the days so they'd put the hours in like they want us to do all the way back in March. I get a notif from UKG this afternoon that not just one but both my vacations (The other is in September) were refused by a store manager who just transferred to this store. There was no comments or details left on the refusal citing the reason either.
Now this already made me REALLY mad but then I started thinking.
This week they had me scheduled on Saturday and I had assumed they just forgot about my vacation or they just didn't check the next week because our store management does not look ahead at ALL when they do the schedules. I told my dept manager it was fine and I'd still do that day as long as I could have the Sunday after since Pickup NEVER let me have the day after and they said that was perfectly okay. I thought it was a simple mistake, but now I'm all but convinced they just were planning on nixing my vacation anyhow and telling me "Oh you can't actually have that because of the holiday".
As of now, I'm absolutely livid. If their answer when I go in tomorrow and ask them what the heck they're doing is anything other than "Oh no we'll fix it you can have your vacation" I'm walking out of that building. I think I've had enough. Don't give me the only paid time off I have (I don't get PTO or personal holidays as a Status 4) and then tell me "ermm actually no".
