I hated to do this...but I had to quit work. The lady who does up the weekly schedules who knows I am in school put me for 8 hours a week with only one day off. It was alot and to much for me to handle and on top of all that it was ILLEGAL. Students who are under 18 and in school are only allowed 20 hours in our state. I was scheduled for 40 this week which is double what is required. So I kindly asked for them to shorten them and they said no there was nothing they could do but work it out next week and I told him school is more important and I needed off or I would have to quit. So since he couldnt do anything I said well I am sorry but today is my last day. I will NOT be in tomorrow. So now I suppose there mad at me because I quit last minute and they need someone to come in tomorrow and she has to redo all next weeks schedule but I do not care. It was her fault in the first place for not following the laws and by rights I could report them. So my brother said he will go with me to get my last check in case they try pulling any stunts on me.
This won't look bad on me for quitting because I quit for school and better education and they will look bad for working me way more then they should. Needless to say I am glad I quit because it was to much stress and I found myself snapping at friends and family and they were glad I had to. So yeah I just wanted to say those things =P

Yep. Scheduling can be a real problem sometimes! You're probably better off concentrating on your schooling, anyway. Maybe you can find something more limited, like every other weekend, just for some pocket money. Good luck!

| Well good for you. If they were making you work that mcuh and it was effecting you that much, then quitting was smart. My sister had to quit her job a while ago cuz they screwed her with the squedule. She needed a day off for a family event and put "not available" months ahead and they still told her to work that day like two days before that. So she quit. Good riddance!

| I so know the feeling Starry. I'm in college and I work less then I need...but it takes up all of my time and I have a class load of a good size. My advisor had a fit when I told her. She told me to possibly look at going to another school. And yet all I hear when I get home is that I need a better job with more hours. The best thing about your situation is A you're in high school and B you quit and you weren't fired...if you were fired that would look really bad. You'll find something. But don't worry it wasn't wrong they should pay attention to their workers needs it was irresponsible of them.
