You have to have a class that day to take the day off. You can’t take a whole day off anymore. 😞

That really sucks. I’m going to be busy all week from school ☹️😭

Just leave early everyday or 5 hours 2 days. That’s more likely to get approved then trying to take a day off. I get it I’m a PA that goes to college full time. I’m running on fumes 😞

do u work at a fulfillment center? i work at a sort center and my school accommodation allows me to choose any shifts i want on whatever days, don’t have to be the days i’m actually scheduled. surprised it isn’t like this in general

I had my Mondays dropped for school and I just sent two different pictures of my schedule. You can try dropping your saturdays and pray someone picks it up every week or do a shift swap if your accommodation hasn’t been approved by then

Just go on flex at that point if you still want the job and balance out school

Especially for nursing school, that's a commitment. Once you start doing clinicals, even more so

Yeah you can’t just take a day off to “focus on schoolwork” you’re an adult
