The interviewer may ask this question to see how you communicate and problem-solve. They also want to see how flexible you are with your schedule and how well you adapt to change. Explain how you would respond if you had plans for your regularly scheduled day off but were scheduled to work.

"If I found out I was scheduled to work on a normal day off and I had already made plans, I would ask my supervisor if I was meant to work that day or if there was a scheduling error. If my supervisor told me there was no error and they needed me to work that day, I would change my plans for another day. If my plans were such that I couldn't change them, for example, a birthday party, I would ask my supervisor if I could try to find someone to cover for me."
