I have been here a little while, about 3 months. I have been switched around between CCMs already to go where my primary account goes. I needed a few hours to go to a school function and asked for that leave. I have never been responded to by my CCM. Is this usual? I put up my shift on the swapboard, said I'd make the time up. Etc. Etc. But no response at all. Do we ever get leave when asked? Or am I to say no to my child from now on. I j ...
