My company hired too many people and now I didn’t get any shifts this week what should I do?

I'd search of alternative employment. If they're training new people, and taking you hours to do so, and not be the one to provide training, it shows thay you have little to no value to them. Maybe you do bring value, maybe you dont. Regardless, if it'll happen once, it'll happen again. Find somewhere to work without that wory

They said in the previous week that there was too many agency workers and had to cut a few people. I think I was one of them because I looked young and skinny to lift the parcels. They would always just chuck me on the scanner scanning barcodes not fair because they put another girl on the line

express to your manager that you would like to try and have more shifts... you should also look for other employment

I work at a parcel company which did require to lift heavy items going down the line then to be placed into different cages. I reckon it’s because I’m quite thin and young looking they decided to take me out of the shifts and give it to the other agency workers

Zero hours contract so work somewhere else or just accept the situation

Quite annoyed by it the company was DHL I noticed when I worked there people wouldn’t turn up or last long so that’s why I think they hired lots of people. But unluckily they would have swapped me in for a guy worker since they can lift more than me. Just annoyed because the start times were good and it was an easy commute. I was always on time and didn’t pull sickies

You can stick it out or you can find a new job

Look for a different job?

I’d start looking for another job.
