Advice?
Ok so I’m a lifeguard at a single guard pool. Im set to head back to college this Sunday 8/23 and my final shift is scheduled Saturday 8/22. However, mid-season we received a form asking when our last available workday is and I said Friday 8/21. Upon filling out this form, I hadn’t realized I was already scheduled for Saturday, so last week I requested off for that day even though I already specified in the form that I was unavailable. My request was still pending yesterday, so I called the office and they said “unless someone claims the shift I have to come in.” I would really like the day off to prepare for move ins and I have plans to do things with my family. Should I just not show up or send an email saying I cannot come in? Or should I just suck it up? They can’t really fire me because I don’t wanna come back next year anyway! Let me know what you think!
