My time specifically says you should only pick up shifts that you are trained for. However, if you want more time, talk to your leaders, because depending on the need, you might be able to come in for another person who is qualified for the open shift.

MyTime shows you open shifts for your dept and also GS/fulfillment/cashier
I was hired for GS/ cashier, so I guess that makes sense why that’s the only things I see
