> [!TIP]
> Don’t see any shifts?
> 
> If you see ‘No shifts’ then that means that you have the day off, or the schedule for that week has not been scheduled yet.

Select a shift to view the activities, breaks or meetings you have been schedule to do. Once selected, this will display in the middle of the page.

> [!TIP]
> Don’t see any activities?
> 
> If you see ‘No activities’ then that means the shift is confirmed, but your manager hasn't scheduled any specific breaks or activities for you yet.

### How to view your teammates schedules

When you select a shift, you will see a list of the agents also scheduled to work that day in the Teams panel on the right-hand side of the page.
