I just started a job at a new restaraunt. It's only temporary because I'll be going back to school in the fall. I have a support system through my parents but I still need to contribute/definitely want some personal spending money so while this job isn't EVERYTHING I still have to work. I told the boss I was ok with working 6 days a week expecting to have varied shifts but he only hired 4 people for upfront and my hours are 12-9pm Monday through Saturday. Since it takes me a bit to get there and get home, I'm pretty stressed out now that 10 hours out of my day will be dedicated to this job. I would have been cool with 40 hours and wish I had been more upfront about how many hours I wanted from the beginning because 54 is overwhelming to me. Sooo… he also mentioned how sometimes since we can't all have the same day off we'll have to cover the other person's shift and work a double. Which in my case would entail working from 12pm-2am. I simply refuse to work 14 hours and don't understand why he can't just hire more than 4 people. Working 14 hours will make me fucking depressed. I'm dreading expressing this to him. He's been pretty cool so far so I was kinda shocked by him saying that. For my own mental/physical health I simply cannot work 14 hours a day for a temporary job. I'm especially worried to talk to him about this because I'm already putting myself out there doing this job as my anxiety is terrible. How can I express this to him that I will not work a double??? Also doesn't he realize that 14 hours is crazy.
