not only that, they change my schedule maybe twice a week? and understaff it constantly and call me in constantly.
but like think how ridiculous 30 days in advance is for a minimum wage job, that's a little over 4 fucking weeks. If I'm not able to submit a request 4 weeks and change in advance it gets auto denied. Recently I submitted a request 27 days in advance, and not only did it get denied, I got scheduled for an 11 hour shift, like wtf it's almost like it's intentional. Now I have to go through a bunch of fucking hoops trying to find someone to swap shifts with, which no one is gonna want to do bc it's an 11 hour shift, and then if I can't find someone I'm not gonna be able to call in sick because I don't get sick time bc I'm seasonal, at least not enough sick time to get that shift off, and they will fire me for that.
it depends on the turnover rate of the job, if you're sure you're easily replaceable, that's a predicament, in which case i recommend selling cool shit on the side and trying to elevate that, all the while looking for a different job with a slower turnover rate that will appreciate you more. i understand that this is easier said than done, but it's still good advice.
