Hey all,
I need your honest opinion.
I work retail and I have worked this specific job in retail for the past two years under the same employer. Recently, management has gone to shit and I absolutely dread being here.
I tried to book this upcoming Sunday off due to stuff going on in my personal life that DEFINITELY takes priority over a minimum wage retail job. Unfortunately, this was declined due to lack of staff (six people had already booked it off).
With that being said, I’ve been debating putting my two weeks notice in for the past month and decided to wait till this thursday so that my last week would be the week before I start school.
However, I NEED sunday off and there is absolutely no way around it, i’ve tried everything. How ideal is it to put in a 6 day notice before quitting?
This is my first job, if I can’t use the owner as a reference due to pissing her off can I use an old coworker?
Edit: I understand that it makes me look like a horrible person. I’m still young (17+, under 20) and as much as I hate to have this attitude, I don’t believe that it’s my problem to work a shift i have booked off for important personal matters.
