Antiwork

(20M) just started a new job, boss won’t give hours I asked for, what should I do?

So I'm currently holding down 2 jobs at the moment. Retail and a custodial position for my town. I've only worked 3 days and so far, I've actually been enjoying my work. Being a cashier and stocker for a smaller retail store isn't that bad. But I asked for full time hours and so far that isn't what I'm really getting. Some people have told me that I should be patient because they are just “testing me out” first. But I'm not gonna lie, I hate the fact that jobs have to test you in order for you to just work a job to sustain your life!!! I get they want to weed out lazy people. But how lazy can I be if I applied to your place of employment? My dad always asks “well maybe it's your job performance that's why their lowering your hours”. It's only been three…


So I'm currently holding down 2 jobs at the moment. Retail and a custodial position for my town.

I've only worked 3 days and so far, I've actually been enjoying my work. Being a cashier and stocker for a smaller retail store isn't that bad.

But I asked for full time hours and so far that isn't what I'm really getting. Some people have told me that I should be patient because they are just “testing me out” first.

My dad always asks “well maybe it's your job performance that's why their lowering your hours”. It's only been three days, I have barely any days this week, and I don't know why jobs can't have one person to make schedules.

On top of this, I'm a broke college student and I was hoping to have something full time that I actually like finally. But no, and my tuition is due very very soon and I'm scared I won't have enough to actually pay it due to this tom FUCKERY.

there are plenty of other factors at play, maybe my performance does suck, I don't see why they don't try to TELL ME THAT. so no communication, or maybe the job doesn't want to go over payroll budgets. Another excuse I heard from a job I had earlier this year.

What ever the case may be… I AM DONE. these are the number one reasons I hate real jobs. So much confusion, no time to chat, no communication, excuses, and lies!!! I'm so used to this shit now. Working isn't as fresh and exciting as it once was.

I am very much considering doing online work or something other than these piss poor jobs…. Or maybe I should just sit back and have “patience”. Whatever…

Does anyone have any advice?

TL;DR: keep having to get new jobs due to shitty work, no communication, excuses. I have a college tuition payment coming and I probably won't be able to pay it due to little to no hours. Considering odd ball jobs. I just don't like having other's in charge of my livelyhood and money like this anymore….
