I just need to rant for a second. This was my final straw and I’m ready to just quit.
So I work 2 jobs. I work in the morning as a receptionist for my one job and a waitress at night for my 2nd job. My waitressing job I get paid very well and the benefits are great. The reason why I’m not full time at the restaurant though is because it’s exhausting and I know I’d be too burned out going full time. Hence why I have my secondary job.
The problem with this secondary job is the manager over there. They don’t seem to understand why I don’t want to dedicate my life over to the place and don’t realize how exhausting it is to work two jobs. They are constantly asking me to come in on my one and only days off. It’s also annoying to have to give my requests off 2 MONTHS in advance. Every other place I work at usually requires at least 2 to 3 weeks ahead of time. It’s irritating when things come up and I can’t make them since I’ve already been scheduled.
Today I got a text saying there is a mandatory meeting for my receptionist job. Unfortunately that meeting conflicts with my other job. I informed my manager that I would not be able to make it into the meeting. He replied with “can’t you just ask someone to cover your shift?” LOL unless you wanna compensate me for the 8 hours I’ll be missing out on tip money for just an 1hr meeting then sure buddy.
I’m sorry but you want us to give our availability 2 months in advance but when your doing something last minute like this you expect us to just drop everything for it?
I’m just so done and over with this place!
I’ve never quit on the spot before without having another job lined up. Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks!
