Cancellations

So here's the thing about working overtime. I don't do it anymore. Primarily because i have better things to do such as school but during the semester and now i've lots of studying to do. But the other reason why i don't do overtime anymore is the fact that on 2 occassions last year, i was called in for overtime and my name was put down to be cancelled on the saturday. On one of those 2 ocassions, i was working the thursday, i wasn't put down to be cancelled sunday. Instead i was put down for the weekend so i don't make the differential. Couple other people have stopped coming in for overtime primarily because of the latter reason.

Anyway, coworker of mine did overtime during the week. On saturday which she was scheduled to work, they cancelled her and pulled a nurse from a different floor to come work on our floor so they wouldn't pay my co-worker overtime. Now, this is just aboveboard but it leaves me with the question "how far are they willing to go to save a dime?"
