As many of you may know, I've been working two jobs for the past 3 weeks now.
I put a full 40 hours in at one job, and 20-25 in at the other job plus going to school full-time. Now, I normally have Friday nights off with my part-time job, and a closing Friday night shift is usually where you stay until 10:45. When it was offered to me I was told that I would not have to stay after 10, I could leave right at 10. So, I agreed to it.
I come in about 45 minutes early because I wanted to do some shopping quick. While I was talking with the Apple guy, I was told, "FL, hurry up and punch-in, J needs a lunch." This was at 5:30ish and I wasn't due in until 6.
So, I punched in and J comes up to me. "So, K said that if it's ok with you, I could leave at 9-9:15 and you would close." I told him that no, it was no ok because I wasn't closing tonight. (This is where I would normally give notice to the fact that I had already worked 8:30-5, but, I didn't want to make excuses.) He got pissy with me and stormed off.
He came back and goes, "I don't know why you can't stay an extra 45 minutes. I haven't had a day off this week" Now, I know that it isn't his fault that I have two jobs, but he's forgetting that I haven't had day off in 3 weeks.
I just shrugged it off and said "sorry".
So he goes on his lunch, comes back and dinks around with the GS for a bit. After about 15 minutes of him doing that (being away from our department for about an hour) I called him back over and told him I was going on a 15.
He goes, "honestly, you're not permitted to have a 15 due to the length of time you're actually working."
That's when I let him have it with both barrells.
Now, I know that both of us were on edge. We had someone cut down on their hours rather suddenly and another person quit rather suddenly. So, we were picking up hours that we didn't necessarily need nor want.
I have my new schedule for Hitachi already... I'll work Wed-Sat 3:30pm-2:30am. I will be putting in my two weeks at my part-time job after last night's tirade. I'm still mad about that one.
