Should I Start Looking For A New Job?

[abbeylee90]

Basically my hours have been cut in selco to 24 hours for 4 weeks as I am not grasping the products with it becoming summer it is getting busy and they can't have another cashier with me so if I don't grasp within 4 weeks won't be able to have me as a cashier. I am very upset as I enjoy it.

I only seen my rota for next week today 

[THECORBYLOON]

You said yesterday "I get my rota 2 weeks in advance".

[naomi24]

Abbey's hours have been reduced, OG.  The original rota for next week may have been changed.

[naomi24]

Sorry, Corby not OG.

The constant changes in hours could make the job unsustainable soon if you need regular income and peace of mind- it was 37 hours originally, then reduced to 24 (see this June 10th thread), up to 27 hours next week then only 10 the week after. I wonder whether they are trying to ease you out- are others having such variations in hours?

Incidentally, this thread is a month old- so will it drop off Latest Posts by tomorrow?

 

[abbeylee90]

Yes but it thier contracted hours and they been there longer than me.

Responding to New

[abbeylee90]

When I went to the physic he said I'd be ok financially 

[Neveracrossword]

Abbey, I'd really like to think that you were joking, but...!

[abbeylee90]

I did a mini read but some of it seems true.

There's one born every minute.🤣

Abbey, your future financial security, job prospects etc don't rely on the 'predictions' made by a psychic. If you seriously want a better future for yourself, you'll surely try to make a decent go of a decent job? Last year was dire for you, and 2024 doesn't - yet- show much of an improvement.  You'll maybe need to give yourself a bit of a shake...

Abby - you need to understand about work and responsibility.

I was a teacher of English (important GCSE subject, yes?).  Now remember when you were at school.

If I had not turned up to teach you a lesson because I had taken time off to have a hairdo - you would not have been happy, would you?  Add on that I perhaps needed time off because my daughter had a birthday party so you had a 'cover' teacher and a worksheet to plough through instead of being taught something new, reactive and vibrant....... How would you have felt?

You must not take time-off for hair, nails or anything personal. If you do so you will be considered unemployable.  Please understand this.  You please your employer - not you!

You are doing OK financially.,You have a home, you regularly get takeaways, buy lots of clothes, get gel and fancy nails done, go to the hairdressers, go out socially a fair bit involving alcohol, pay for a psychic reading (they aren't cheap), were having driving lessons, presumably have a smartphone on contract and they're not cheap either. You're not exactly on the breadline.

[abbeylee90]

It's 10 hours aunty but I haven't signed anything.

Aunty that what I'm trying to do I just want to eventually have a 37.5 contract and be appreciated. 

Prudie not so much takeaways now.

[abbeylee90]

One of the girls I work with took time off to have her nails or kicked up a fuss when they tried tp say she had to work that day.
