The first route is hit, Auth::check() returns false so the block moves on to creating the login page.

Route::get('/', function()
{
   if (Auth::check()) 
   {
   	if(Auth::user()->hasRole('employee'))
   	{
   		return Redirect::to('Employees/Shifts');
   	}
   	else
   	{
          
   		return Redirect::to('Admin/Employees');
   	}
       	
   } 
   else 
   {
       return View::make('login');
   }
});

The issue is that the routes are generated before the Auth is initiated. Essentially, Auth::check() will always be false. This check must be done instead in Laravel 5's middleware or Laravel 3-4's filters.
