A and B are busy, have full opening hours, lot's of traffic, etc. and C is a small scale location with limited opening hours and much less traffic. It mostly functions as an expansion of A, which is the "main location", mostly because it's close to administration. It's also bit busier than B, where I work. A is the one that is always considered first and accomodated first, even at the expense of the other two locations. For instance, we got the next months shifts today. Well, on several days several people from our location (yours turly included) have been marked to A, despite A already having more people on shift than us, even before taking into account the people being sent to A. This will leave B understaffed. Meaning that for marginal benefit to A, they're willing to completely fuck over B.

That's probably not true. But then I regularly have to talk myself out of the "fact" of my very existence being a burden and it being very selfish not to dive in front of truck-kun, so maybe we can be distorted-thought buddies.

It sounds like this brave new world is balanced on a knifes edge. What if I just give it a little nudge.

Now that would just be sad. A bit of institutional internment and strictly enforced reeducation might make a proper citizen out of you, though.
