How am I supposed to train, if you don’t give me any hours?

Recently got this new job as a manager in training at a store after I left another workplace. Few bumps in the road, but hey, it’s literally my first time being a manager, (they knew that when they hired me, I made it very clear) and I’ve worked there for a week. So you’d think they’d understand that I’m gonna get better as time goes on right?

I want to get another job, but they said the hours are “subject to change” even after they sent out weeks worth of schedule. It’d be funny If they called me up in the middle of a shift at another job, asking me to come in since their managers get paid less than the average fast food crew member around here. I don’t know. I guess this is more of a frustration post than actually asking for advice. Because I want to have a position in management on my resume so it’ll look better in the future, but they are testing me
