Responded to a highly urgent indeed listing for a local seasonal job. I was told during my interview that the season lasts until September and that there would be so many hours I'd probably have to ask and beg to get a day off.
Go in for two days of training, then no shifts for a month. But not all at once, it was always “this weekend” then “next Monday” then it'd go back to “maybe this weekend” again.
I gave up contracts in my own business for this job. I've been bleeding all month waiting for shifts. I have anxiety and I've been out of my mind for a couple weeks now over finances.
Then I come back this week to a full two weeks scheduled, I work Monday until today- I even have a friendly conversation with my boss and head home. Two hours later I get a text saying my season is over.
