But suddenly last week, he got upset. He was said “will you still come in if we need a shift covered?” and I said “No probably not.” I have a part time contract of 10 hours and have been working there for over a year. I have never work more than 15 hours a week (i’m a full time student too). He seemed pissed that I suddenly was not at his beck and call, he said “we expect you to be flexible.” and I said “I was. For a year, but you didn’t give me enough hours.” I’m unreasonably annoyed by this. I just pushed my buttons. They just hired a casual too.

He’s lucky I didn’t quit on the spot.
