Just Shoot Me In The Face

More stupid fucking drama.

So I turned in my new availability with my new hours now that I'm also going to be working at another pharmacy. I specifically write on it to talk to me if what I wrote won't work. Well it didn't work, and did they talk to me? Of course not.

So the weekend that I said I was working at the pharmacy, they schedule me. Well y'know what Target, they are more important than you now because it's an actual pharmacy. You're dragging your feet with moving me into your pharmacy, so I found someone that wants/needs me.

So instead they put my rejected availability into my folder (which I assume I got just so they could put that in there, I hadn't had one for almost a month now) and I see I'm scheduled. I find my supervisor and bitch because how am I supposed to know when I only work weekends and I still have no idea when they do the schedule for each week. And I sure as fuck am not ditching any part of my new job because they scheduled me before Target did. I wonder if I should just ask my new job to schedule me one week in advance of Target so I could turn their schedule for me into them and they could work around it.

But here's how I was/am scheduled for next weekend. Friday, I work 1-6 at the pharmacy and Target scheduled me 5-10. So I'm working now at 6:30. Saturday, I work 9-5 at the pharmacy and Target scheduled me 2:30-10. So now I work at 5:30. So this is the next weekend for me:
Friday- class until 12, pharmacy 1-6, Target 6:30-10
Saturday- pharmacy 9-5, Target 5:30-10
And I don't even have my schedule for Sunday, but thank god the pharmacy is closed. So just those 2 days I'm pretty much working 24 hours of 48. It shall be fun! I don't even know if I can make it to my apartment to change in between jobs, but I'll try my best. I hope they don't have me working too long on Sunday. I have too much shit to do.

Oh but get this, on my rejected availability, my manager writes that she talked to the pharmacy-instore and they said I could work over there if I was still interested. Uh, YES! Had you told me this, um, about 3 weeks ago and actually put me over there, I wouldn't have needed to get another pharmacy job!

So on my new availability, I wrote that the other pharmacy wanted me to work every other Saturday, so they have SOME record of it. (I know they would deny it back and forth if I didn't constantly write it on shit) I also told them I would be interested in working in their pharmacy on the days I was available.

This whole thing is turning out to be one giant fucking mess. I don't think I can take one more week of adjusting my whole work-life around them. One week was stressful enough. I wonder if Target will actually LET me work at this new pharmacy, or if they'll continue to make it tough for me. If they choose the latter, I hope they know that they will be the first I say goodbye to, not the pharmacy. I'm sick of being the college-aged kid cashiering at a Target with high school aged cashiers. I just feel really old at that store. I don't mind Guest Service, but it's not as fun as my old store. My new store literally does not want you to go above and beyond, and that's all I'm about. I want a challenge. I'm just not getting one anymore.

We'll see how Target pharmacy goes, and if I ever get to work over there. I'm going to get my schedule for the week after next weekend on Friday. I actually don't even want to think about it.
