yeah :/ i’m an opening shift but my sm apparently has no idea how to schedule for the holidays and we’re having really late peaks but scheduled for the regular 7-9. so everyone is leaving at 10-11 which is midway through peak, then the pull has to start at 10, and everyone has a 30. so we end up running like 5 partner peaks, too busy to do a good cs round to prep the transition and i’m scrambling doing the work of 3 people for the last couple hours of my shift. i’m so burnt out and everything i say to my sm is ignored. and i know nights are terrible too, every time i transition it goes down to like 3-4 partners with volume comparable to peak. what a terrible way to start the day 🙃

Before I quit this was my last fav thing about working nights. We get all the clean up work without any recognition and the morning crew get favouritism. It sucked being such dedicated closers to never get anything out of it. Rushes ten minutes before close that completely get rid of any prepared tasks, leaving hours later than scheduled, and being told off for taking extra time because “it fucks with labour” like are you kidding? I do not miss it at all.
