@redditstories_doggo: My coworker asked me to give up my vacation to cover her shift because she was having issues getting a babysitter and "no one else" in our company with 200 employees could cover for her, and now that I said no, everyone is acting like I'm evil. Plus one update. Posted by: u/Wanitapol #reddit #redditstories #redditreadings #storytime #redditdoggo #minecraftparkour
Nta. I am so sick of people with children thinking they are more important than everyone else’s

I'd ask for the manager to put that in writing as I think it's illegal

NTA and inform them to sue the company. Child care is no one else problem and I’m a mother also.

document everything, go to HR. if that's a company policy, HR will tell you. if not, HR will correct management

As someone with 2 kids and a job it’s MY responsibility to figure out if things go south nobody else’s. I can’t stand parents who expect everyone to drop everything because something happened

bitteroldqueen :
so I would absolutely have them give it to me in writing that they are changing the policy to strictly favor people with children over those without. I would then be making sure to give a copy of that to the local labor board and whatever lawyer happens to pass by on a bus.

Strawberry Fairy :
I don’t mind covering lateness or leaving early and being ASKED without strings attached to cover a full shift for anyone especially people with kids, it’s when the entitlement starts and my time become everyone’s time then it’s full stop cause I refuse to be a commodity. You can have a village and a lenient workplace without screwing other people over🤷♀️
