    One question: do your colleagues also have their days changed without being asked? Or does it seem that if one of them asks to change their shifts, yours are changed to accommodate this?

    Because if several of you were being 'inconvenienced' by this, I feel you would be playing a stronger hand. If it's just one person who's not happy, it's harder. 

    I think Brynsam gives good advice: bite the bullet and TELL her what you need and ASK her to arrange it. 

    Personally, I would also join a trade union. 
    You didn't respond to this.

    Thanks, going to just go along with it for now as there are no jobs around so feel I have no choice.  Not happy about it but what can I do?  Was asked to change my Sunday shift this week and work Thursday instead because said person can't work Thursday, last minute change again!  But now they can say I had Sunday off so it will be fine to work next Saturday and Sunday for the next few weeks.
