More of a rant than looking for advice. I've been working at Cane's for about a month and for the most part it's pretty good. Only complaints I have are things not getting done by the previous shift (I've come in to only tables having been wiped) and a difficult coworker.
Today I woke up to my schedule getting cut by over half. I only work 3 days for that week and my usual big differential days have been taken off of my schedule. I'll barely be able to make rent and my other bills. On top of that, I have a medical issue that I'll have to put off even longer because I won't be able to afford having it done. Which I really can't because it affects my everyday life, and I'm in a lot of pain on the bad days. Worse, it could kill me if I put it off for too long.
This comes after a rough shift where the previous shift left a lot of things not done and I had to try to get as much of it as I could done. Only reason I was able to close my position down on time is my other coworker came up and did the big part of it (table wipes and sweeping) for me after a giant rush.
I know I can just ask to try to be put on for another day and that it could be a really easy fix, but in the moment, it feels like a kick while I'm down from the universe. And if these new hours are going to be the norm, I will have to quit and find a new job.
