I imagine that the software does allow for some employees to have priority as to their schedule remaining the same (e.g., students who have to go to classes).
That this affects all employees in the same way is arguing the facts without having access to the facts.

When I did "on call" I didn't have more than 2 hours notice as to whether I was definitely working. I was scheduled tentatively a week ahead, yes, but when it came down to actually working, I didn't know more than 2 hours before. When I see them using the term "on call" that's what I take it to mean.
I would hope they would have a one week notice, but considering this is Walmart, I really doubt they would be that thoughtful. (Reminds me of Lily Tomlin - "we don't care! We don't have to! We're the phone company!")
