I do photography as a part time gig, hoping to work towards full time in the future but who knows how long that will take so I’m currently slowly building up clientele on my Fridays through Sunday’s. I went back to a former job a few weeks ago and they rehired me on the availability that we discussed Monday-Thursday, while Friday and weekends I am unavailable. Today I’ve been asked to change my Friday’s off to Monday’s and also a guy who helps run the company took jabs at me stating that I should completely remove my day of unavailability and give them my Friday’s and instead focus on my photography just on weekends which wasn’t the agreement upon being hired. the guy is super narcissistic and selfish and I’m not sure how to approach this situation as I finally found a side hustle that makes me happy and set…

I went into work and spoke to the manager who makes the schedule and she told me to text her the day I actually needed off so I just did that. Well, the schedule was published and surprise surprise, I’m scheduled for the day I said I couldn’t work.
