Stuck with a shift? Need to swap? You’ve got more options than you think.
The draft isn’t the end. A few clicks and you can swap a shift or give it away. The system is there for you — use it.
Give Away = “I just need OUT — hand it to someone, nothing back.” Swap = “I want THAT specific shift in return.” Using the wrong one wastes everyone’s time.
Giving away a whole shift when you only need an hour off is overkill. Splitting lets you keep the part you can work and hand off just the rest — you still get paid for your half.
The longer your shift sits on the board, the more teammates see it, the better your odds. Don’t wait until the week of.
Open trade-board shifts show up right alongside your team’s real schedule, outlined in a thick gold border. You can SEE which ones fit your week before you grab.
You don’t have to bounce over to the sub-group calendar to hunt for extra hours. My Calendar can overlay every open trade-board shift right on top of your own — across all your sub-groups at once.
The early bird gets the shift. The Trade Board button shows a little dot the moment a teammate posts or pulls something — that’s your cue to pounce before anyone else does.
Sometimes you have to take a shift you don’t love. Smart move: pick the one someone else might want. A weekend morning is way more tradeable than a Wednesday overnight.
Once a trade is approved, the change hits your synced Apple, Google, or Outlook calendar within minutes. No re-syncing, no manual update.
