Okay, it's my turn to vent. I'm getting really frustrated with my job. I used to LOVE going to work, I'd look forward to going in & I'd go in early, & I'd go in on my days off and work for people. There for a while I was getting 30 hours a week. People would ask me to work for them on my days off and I ALWAYS said yes, I even offered to stay late a few nights a week because I knew they needed my help. I worked 9 days in a row once, got 1 day off and worked another 7 days in a row, I work really really hard there.
Well, lately I feel like they've really been screwing some of us over. At the end of Summer vacation, my friend Sarah (she's been there for about 8 months) wrote a note and stuck it in the mailbox infront of the managers office telling her that she couldn't work past 9 pm on school nights, but the managers kept scheduling her until ten. I know an hour isn't a big deal, but she's got like 7 honors classes, which means a lot of homework, and she doesn't have to explain herself in the first place, SHE SAID SHE COULDN'T WORK PAST 9 SO DONT PUT HER ON PAST 9! Well they kept doing it, so she called the manager and said "I wrote a note and put it in your mailbox that I couldn't work past 9 on school nights blah blah blah"
Well, it turns out that they must want revenge or something, because they pulled her OFF of the floor (we both worked in jewelry and apparel) and put her back on checkouts (which is like a demotion to us on the floor, pretty much) and now she's only working like 2 days a week.
They keep hiring new people all the time, my friend kaycee has been working there for about a month and only works ONE day a week. They've pulled people who have been there for only a few months and putting them on the floor and are lowering OUR hours. I'm sorry but that is NOT right. I'm in a marketing class, and to be able to get a credit, I have to get at least 20 hours a week. They're giving me 15. My manager signed a paper saying that she'd give me at least 20 hours a week because of my class, and now she's cutting me off!!! I'm sorry but it's making me so mad, they're frustrating me.
It mainly makes me mad because they've pulled 2 people off of checkouts, put one in jew. and one in electronics and they work like every day like I used to & now here I am in a marketing class NEEDING hours, and I'm not getting them, when I've been there for a lot longer.
Sorry, I'm just really mad lol
