I’ve been working at this job for only 6 weeks. It does alright, my coworkers are nice and the pay is well, but it is completely exhausting. I work 3 days a week every single weekend from 4 to closing at 10pm, immediately followed up by an opening 9-5 shift on Monday.
It doesn’t sound like a lot but the restaurant is completely understaffed and every day is an non stop rush from opening till closing and I’m a nursing student taking five courses, by the time I have my three days off for class I’m completely burnt out by work and don’t have any motivation to study.
I’ve spoken to my employer about changing my schedule to space out my shifts to accommodate my work and school life and was rejected. I don’t know if I should get another job or just hold this one out, please help.
