Well, back to the ads.

I have been scheduled for exactly one five hour shift next week. I'm not the only one.

Time to start looking again.

Well, if you're the last one to leave, you might get the time from other people's shifts. OTOH, management should have let you know that this was coming.

"Welcome to the wonderful world of retail, Doug," she says ironically. Dale (a grocery clerk for the last twenty-fucking-four-and-a-goddam-half years) likewise sends sympathy.

WTF????

I understand that it gets slower after the holidays but Jeez, if they needed to lay off 2-3 more people so the rest could have 25 hours, then they should do it! What the sense of bringing everyone down to 5 hours???

Anyway, I'm sending massive waves of writing waves while you've got some time off...
