We dare you make it all the way through this blog post, because some of this stuff is pretty terrifying. So brace yourself, and then let’s open that creaky door… because we want to hear your scheduling horror stories this Halloween — no matter how spooky it gets.
Have you ever wondered if it was your co-workers' unstable & unpredictable work schedules that sucked the life out of them… or was that Dracula?
Do your all-over-the-place shifts leave you stitching together a freakish franken-schedule out of various chunks of your work and your life that you just hope all holds together?
Are you scheduled for clopening shifts (closing up one night then opening the next morning) that leave you feeling like a zombie?
Or maybe you’re left with so few hours that it’s always a skeleton schedule for you.
Whichever scheduling scare story you're living — we want to hear about it.
It's true, a work schedule can be a horror show.
And we’re doing something to change that.
We’re fighting to win new laws that ensure workers have a right to less horrifying schedules, including advance notice of shifts, access to additional hours, and no more mandatory clopens.
And we want to hear from you about what your experience is like.
Let us know — and happy halloween!
