    Asked for 15-20 hours but was given 28?

    I get it haha. I'm trying to be as reasonable as possible but I'm sure that isn't always the case here, can't blame him. A lot of his posts and comments helped me immensely throughout the whole application and interview process so I truly truly am grateful for him and his help, on this topic as...

    Not sure what you're getting at with "I don't like what I see". If anything, this has been pretty reaffirming and helpful. If August is a low hour month, that's fine. My concern is that my schedule has gone over not only my preferred hours, but my maximum amount of hours, and I think the general...

    Asked for 15-20 hours but was given 28?

    Well, I told my interviewer I wanted limited hours, I would highly prefer 15 hours, 20 on the high end, with an absolute maximum of 25 for holidays and stuff. They noted that, sent me to a second interview, and hired me on. So this isn't a new request, this was a provision I was hired upon that...

    What do you mean? I'd rather get ahead of it now and pay off at least a good amount of it, instead of having a bunch of them years after I graduate, accruing interest. EDIT: sorry, I beat you before you edited your comment lol. Of course I'll have all of those expenses once I'm done with...

    Asked for 15-20 hours but was given 28?

    Yeah and I totally get that. I’ve been really pleased with training and everything, I’m getting 2 weeks of it which seems a lot better than most got. It’s just that I specifically mentioned I’d prefer 15 hours and my absolute max would be 25 (for the holidays and such, as you said), that was...

    Asked for 15-20 hours but was given 28?

    I don’t need a job in the sense that I’m well taken care of at home and everything. I need it in the sense that college is expensive and I’d much rather work now than pay loans later. That being said, I don’t need a ton of hours. 28 isn’t even close to a ton for most people, but I’m a student...

    Asked for 15-20 hours but was given 28?

    Honestly, if that’s what happens, that’s what happens. It would suck but I’m not relying on this paycheck for my livelihood like a lot of people are, I’m just saving for college tuition. I’d rather these hours, that I really am not capable of doing with the online courseload that I have, go to...

    Asked for 15-20 hours but was given 28?

    I feel like most people complaining about hours want MORE hours, but this case is the opposite haha. I have my second and last week of training this coming week, and my schedule for my first week off of training just got released. It has me working 28 hours. In my interview, I stated I was...

    Just got hired, hi everyone!

    Joined this website a couple days ago when I was looking for help with the interviews. Had my first interview yesterday, second interview this morning, and was hired on the spot there! This is my first 'official' job - I've done stuff like tutoring, food delivery, camp counseling, but nothing...
