Pregnant co-worker gets her just desserts.

0:03.2

So, I worked in this small, family-owned office that runs 24-7.

0:08.3

That's about 25 employees total, but in the office there's only like 12 of us.

0:13.1

The rest work off-site.

0:15.1

There's a woman who works there.

0:16.7

We'll call her Jill.

0:18.6

Jill is almost 40 and has been here for about 10 years. Reference, I've

0:23.3

been here for just over four years. Since I've been hired, and from what I hear for her entire

0:28.3

employment, she's never agreed to switch shifts with anyone. Not once. Not a single time has she

0:35.6

done anyone a favor, no matter what. Yet, she has no issue constantly

0:40.3

asking other people to switch shifts with her. She'd always take a shift from whatever person she was

switching with to keep the hours even for everyone. But it was only when she needed it, and not the other way round,

0:52.3

and it would always be within the same work week

0:54.4

since we got paid by the hour. So ultimately, it wasn't like the person working this shift

0:59.5

instead of that shift, all within the same week, was doing them any favours in the end. So,

1:04.8

she asks to switch shifts all the time, but won't agree to switch shifts when someone else

1:09.2

needs to, is what I'm trying to say. Switch

1:12.1

is in, she works their shift and they work her shift. The only way to return that favor is to

1:17.2

agree to switch shifts with them the next time they need it, which she does not do. A year into my

1:23.2

employment, my brother needed emergency surgery. And I begged her to cover my shift the next day, and all she said was,

1:31.2

Sunday's my only day to sleep in. Sorry. I never forgot that. Whatever, she's not obligated to switch shifts.

1:38.4

It's her prerogative if she just wants to be universally disliked by our entire office.
