daughter asked if she can have friday coming of work as we arranged a family day out. it was arranged before she got the job.

his reply was.Your on router i cant change it next time give more notice.

daughter thinks that means she can go but should give more notice next time.

i think it means. no you cant go. next time give more notice and you will be able to go...

You're on rota. I can't change it. Next time give more notice.

If that's what the response was then no, she can't go.

Can you not re-arrange the day out, or have you got tickets?

He clearly said, "I can't change it".

She can't go, and if she knew about it when she got the job, why on earth didn't she tell them then?

I agree with the PP, he was saying she can't go. Can she switch shifts with someone?

She's on the rota. If the rota can't be changed then obviously she needs to work the shift she's rota'd for. If she doesn't she'd be sacked.

It clearly states it can't be changed. How can your daughter be confused about a simple, clear message?

From what you've said she doesn't have permission.

Is there any reason she didn't give notice when she accepted the job that she'd need that day off?

Is it her contacted day to work?
If not then it's up to him to find someone to work it.
She should have said when she started that she had plans then he would have to honour it.

Which is why punctuation is important!

Of course she can't go. Why didn't she bring it up when she accepted the job? Hard fact of life I think, for both of you.

mag no reason she just was :/

eigg daughter would not have thought about it. but she did try and tell them. manager was not in so she told supervisor. he told her to tell manager. she had no contact detales. manages to get an email address. sends email no reply. the discovers this is not right email. emails him again with the right email. and that was the reply.

eeyores i guess it is ? shes on zero contract hours
