[QUOTE="AndBreathe, post: 1097150, member: 88961"] I would consider you employer has made adjustments for a period whilst you get used to your new life. It's your new life, not theirs. If you were employed to work shifts then if you say you can't do your job, then I would say you have the issue, not them. We have no idea what other considerations your employer has, with other workers and staffing requirements. We have no idea of the our work is easy to cover or highly specialised and or how they cover that period you never want to work. I think you must at least try working with your employer to honour your job requirements. If you can then show that for some medical reason it doesn't suit and it is making you I'll or affecting the safety of you or your colleagues then revisit HR. I must admit I would be somewhat unsympathetic to your requirements, as you have described them. I have never worked shifts, but I have worked very little long hours, with sometimes extreme commutes to be done in my own time. If f you like the job you probably just have to get your head around this s requirements. If you are less bothered then you could be best served looking for a job with only day shifts, but I imagine your current role includes a certain financial enhancement for your shifts and antisocial hours. Good luck with it all. [/QUOTE]
