save the last case?

I was in tetra tonight. I was in a pretty good mood because it was a slow night and everything was pretty much done before one. #4 even saved me a case I didn't really need when his line started up.

Then, the soup running on C and D ended around 0220. When I was getting my audit at 0210 I asked the stackers on both lines to save me the last case. Both of them made eye contact and acknowledged my request.

Around 0230, when I had finished the rest of my audit, I went to grab my end cases.

There were no end cases.

I know that they are temps and that they are being paid $8/hr to stack boxes, but seriously how difficult is it to follow simple instructions?

That's two whiny complaining blogs in a row. Sorry, internet, hopefully no one screws me over tonight.
