Exactly the same as the store i worked at. No money to have more people scheduled in, plenty of money to ask for OT and call extra people in daily.

Before I quit there had not been a single day in half a year where the evening shift had enough people scheduled to do the amount of work we knew was going to be there. Not a single day the managers didn't have to beg for more people to come in. So when my options came down to become a manager or leave when my contract expired, I bolted.

And in the care taking sector. Three people needed per wing for a proper job. Two are scheduled, one of those calls in sick and for some strange reason nobody is picking up their phone. Well folks, looks like today has sub standard levels of hygiene on the menu.

Factories run similarly in my experience

It’s dumb as fuck but we have to reduce manpower further
