In the situations below, describe what you would do to ensure that you are following the store's policies.

a) One morning, you wake up too sick for school. You're scheduled to work a shift that day after school. (3 points)

b) The next day, you are feeling better and are able to go back to school, but you have to stay after to make up a test that you missed when you were sick. School ends at 3 p.m. and you'll have an hour to make up the test. You're scheduled to start your shift at the store at 3:45 p.m. (3 points)

As an expert, I can give general advice on how to ensure that you follow the store's policies in such situations. However, I need to know the specific policies of the store to determine the best course of action. That being said, here are some general tips:

a) If you are too sick to work, you should call your supervisor as soon as possible and inform them of your situation. Follow the store's policy on sick leave and request a day off if necessary. Provide a doctor's note if required by the store's policy.

b) If you have a conflict between your school schedule and work schedule, you should inform your supervisor as soon as possible and try to reschedule either your school obligation or work shift. Follow the store's policy on scheduling and request a shift change if necessary. Try to give as much notice as possible to avoid inconveniencing your co-workers.
