So, I work at the village skating rink were I live, and I'm a "co-director" there. So, i make the schedule and shit, and either me or the other director have to be their with one worker at all times. So, I bought tickets for a concert and scheduled the other director to work on that friday. Well, wouldn't you god damn know it, the little prick has a god damn hockey game that day.

Now do you guys think that a job comes before some meaningless club sport? It wouldn't be a problem had I not been working around this asshole's hockey schedule for a month. I have to work nights on Saturdays and sundays for his hockey. So now I can't go to a concert because of this kid. He doesn't even get to play ever! He told me so! Since I make the schedule, shouldn't I decide who works when, no matter what they are doing?

Put up a sign that night which says the rink is closed due to health code violations.

Ah, flawless plan! Perhaps throw a corpse on the ice so nobody gets suspicious.

Depends on his availability. Employees set their availability and employers either accept or reject it and then schedule around whatever is established. If he's made an arrangement to go play (or not play, as it were) hockey, that's the arrangement he's made.

Schedule him anyway. If he doesn't show up, he loses his job, simple enough. Or just kill his hockey coach.

He told me he had hockey as I was making the schedule, not 2 weeks beforehand.

He should have notified the schedule maker at LEAST a week before hand.

Yeah thanks, if I even get to go. You live in New York right? Well it's in Oneonta.

Stop being a pussy and do your job. Make him work when you damn well please. If he doesn't, it's not like it's going to be hard to find a replacement in this economy (also say that to him)
