I ask because it's been happening to me a lot lately. It's frustrating the fuck out of me.

Can you refuse? I just took to refusing every time and eventually they stopped asking

Never. The only reason I take time off is for doctors appointments, and when i do that I just shut down the shop.

With my job, I'm really in no position to refuse. We're short-staffed and we have so many customers every day, it's insane. I'm at the mercy of my company.

That's not your problem though. We were short staffed too and I just said "ah really sorry there's absolutely no way" sometimes I'd add "I have an appointment/other job/out of town" and then sit on the couch playing video games

Not often, but whenever they do, I just tell them I already had plans, because IT'S MY DAY OFF.

Tell them you have this thing called shit to do and that you cant come in.

I don't get calls in anymore. Very rarely they will phone me on my day off if they need a piece of information or something I might know off the top of my head.

That excise didn't work with answering machines. Regardless, I'm in no obligation to even use my phone on days off. So yeah, maybe I didn't get the message. This isn't hard

Sounds like they're at the mercy of you, if they're short staffed then you have all the power. They're not gonna fire you or cut your hours because they need you. Not sure what exactly you think the issue is.

The first rule in the working world is: look out for yourself first.

Your job would have no problem screwing you over (they apparently do it consistently), why do you feel bad screwing them over?

Once or twice a month I might get a call from work. It depends on what I have planned that day on if I will go in for overtime.
