This means that when the customers are here, i.e. holidays and weekends, we need you to be here and on time.

Being here on time is a must regardless of weather conditions.
Snow and unreliable transportation are not excuses to be late or not show up for your shift.
 

Think about where you live and the type of transportation you have and make a back up plan according to your personal situation.
