A month ago I requested this past weekend after superbowl for a family get together. My sister just had a baby and he's about 3 weeks old now. The old manager is no long with us, but despite him oking it the new manager didn t tell me I couldn t have the weekend off.
Just because I ordered pizza from my store for the family get together I was treated as if I only asked for the weekend off to play hooky from work. After ordering the Pizza, the temp manager contacted me asking me if I was available. I simply replied no, I'm busy with family and that same reason is why I requested the weekend off. Despite this I continued getting calls from the temp manager over the weekend, I just ignored them after the first call.
I came in Monday to find my hours were drastically slashed, so I contacted my old store manager and he told me to contact his father, the District Manager. I sent him a quick text detailing how my hours were cut due to not volunteering to come in on the days off I was granted by his son.
I returned to my store a few hours later, and the manager who cut my hours popped out of the back to tell me that there was a major mix-up and that the schedule would be re-made. Immediately after telling me this, he proceeds to yank my personal cell phone out of my hand to look at the schedule I took a picture of (It was less than 1 foot away on the wall) and proceeded to flip through my photos until he found one of me holding my newborn nephew. He just nervously laughed and handed the phone back.
I was called in yesterday and showed up (As I do 99% of the time I am called in) and found that the schedule was re-made but I was only given one 5 hour shift aside from the 6-7 hours I worked yesterday. I am a full time employee and prior to this weekend I averaged 30-40 hours per week. The DM is on vacation in the Bahamas so aside of making a quick phone call to the temp manager who cut my hours there's not a lot he can do right now.
Around midnight last night I noticed my FB messenger app was dinging indicating I have a new message. Turns out another driver from the home store that my temp manager works decided to take it upon herself to contact me, telling me I have no right to be mad about my hours being cut, and that I'm still new and have a lot to learn. I took a screenshot of this harassing message I received and saved it.
I'm wondering if I should wait it out a bit longer before going to HR or just start looking for a new job. As far as I know there are no laws being broken here, but coming from someone who is almost 30 I'm not taking kindly to being cornered into quitting by a bunch of college kids.
