There's someone trying really hard to get me fired or get me to quit. I check my schedule every day that I work, because it always changes. I had Thursday and Friday off. I get a call on Friday asking if I'm showing up. Someone wrote me in on the schedule on Thursday or Friday, but didn't bother to tell me. When asked if they called me they said they don'y have my number. Every employee's number is written down in the department they work in. So, that's a lye. It's just a good thing my bosses know that I wouldn't just not show up. I haven't missed a day of work, since day 1. My hard work must be really intimidating to some body, because I can't think of any other reason for someone to be out to get me. How do I handle this?
It is your obligation to YOURSELF to take care of yourself & only yourself. So with that said - you need to take a photo of the work schedule when it is posted for the first time. If it goes up at 3 pm Friday, try to photo it (or get a copy of it) as soon as possible. They should not be able to adjust the schedule once it is posted WITH OUT ASKING THOSE WHO IT EFFECTS FIRST. Trust me - and as you can see - they sure as hell will try! Tell them straight up that you have the original photocopy of the schedule and you ARE NOT SCHEDULED! Even tell them that if you don't. They know what they did and will back off. Good luck & never be a lemon flavored sucker to The Man
My department heads write in schedules all the time even after Friday. Fortunately my department heads are smart enough to know that the "new schedule" is not official, so even though they write in changes, if people don't show up, they don't show up. After all, they can't be held liable when the schedule was changed late.
Under many contracts the schedule can be changed as late as 6 PM on Saturday. Any changes after that have to be mutually agreed upon by the employee and the department head (manager, leader, whatever they're called these days).

This is correct. Take a photo on Saturday evening or Sunday and use that. If your schedule changes after that They need to ask you if you can or are willing to work it.

One thing you can do is take a picture of it each time you look at the schedule. Also, you don't have to be intimidating to others. Some people just don't like you and that's how it is at any job. You like people, you don't like some people, and other employees view you the same way. That's just life. Find out who it is and then start writing them in on the schedule.
Legally they have to honor the original schedule that is written.Legally they have to tell you if they change your schedule in advance.My employer constantly did this early on and I forewarned them that if they are to change to schedule to let me know in advance.I made them sign a note/letter making them honor the agreement.My trump card is my disability.I warned them if they are trying to get me fired for "attendance" I will sue and take you for all that you have.As you are actually firing me for my disability.They were a little more willing to comply to the written schedule.
I have management "training" education and a degree.Provide a letter in writing, one to your store manager and watch them put it in your file, and two to your department manager.The letter should probably mention something about giving you forewarning about schedule changes "x" number days in advance.Make you and your department lead/manager sign it.Then make a copy for your self with the signatures.Put your copy in your home file cabinet QFC folder.It is a legally binding contract that they have to adhere to.If they continue the same behavior patternthis protects you legally and can get them in trouble.
To add on if you want to take it to the extreme you can get one copy notarized and give them a photocopy of it. Then it is very much a legal binding contract.
