I waited until our usual department head who writes the schedule was on vacation. She had been rejecting it. When the assistant department head was writing the schedule, she approved it.
this. I worked for 15 years and never got this. That's why I got out of retail and to a career with no weekends or evenings. Get the hell out of there. Anything hourly is generally a **** job. js.
At my store, as a cashier, you'd need something like 8-10 years seniority and it often wouldn't be both days.
If you want weekends off, you shouldn't be in retail. Actually, you shouldn't be in retail in general.
Depends on your store and the department you work in. I got weekends off and day shifts after I had been there 6 years and the only reason it wasn't sooner was because I had to work weekends only for a few years. Another woman has a similar schedule to me and she's only been there 3 years.
