Getting sick and tired of this. I work retail and while MANY things have ground me down, something that keeps popping up is the schedule. I am set to max. 20 hours a week. This is what I can handle working at that store. I have given them my permission to go up to 23 just so I can have three nice 7-3:30 shifts a week.

Sometimes I'll have some wackadoo shifts, like 7-11 or 8:15 - 2:45. Not too bad but odd.

But something keeps happening that I KEEP HAVING to discuss with my managers. They keep increasing my hours without asking. For example, two weeks out (week after next) I am at 36 hours. Could I use the money? Absoluetle but I wasn't asked to increase hours, I didn't give permission to increase hours and I am losing it.

I flat out told them that this is strike two. One more time and I'm out. I will quit on the spot.

I need the money, I need to get my life in gear but I feel like I'm losing my sanity. My parents (old school gen X, I love them so much and they've done so much for me) advise me to stick to it and I'm split.

But also altering hours without permission is illegal so there's that.

Coming into work and finding out that people called out

Listening to those same coworkers the next day talking about how great of a team we are

Me, plotting to call out next time i’m scheduled with those particular coworkers

Me, when the stars align but my conscience doesn’t let me go through with it

Customer: *is irrationally angry*

Me, a retail worker: I'm sorry, but THAT was the last straw

January 4/365 These #desksigndcertainly resonated with me - even though I don't have a actual desk at work. 😁😂 #retailworker #officeworks https://www.instagram.com/p/Cm-__pSLrlZ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
