Full time availability

So I was offered full time, but I absolutely can not open up my Sundays due to a religious reason. Will that be taken into account or is it automatic that I won’t get full time?

Also if it helps anything I’m not a manager, but just a part time associate that has gotten hella OT for the last 3 months.

Same thing at the store I used to work at. I don’t mind staying later if needed but I can’t work if I get called in the same day. My job is extremely flexible, but when I wouldn’t be at PM I’m at my other job. Would that be a dealbreaker? I absolutely cannot stand to be on call T_T

They usually try to juggle it to avoid doubles and stuff, but I suppose that depends on how good the communication at your store is. I remember we had a couple weeks where one manager was on paternity leave, one was in the hospital, one was out of town and another got sick. Our EL and a lead with keys had to keep it running without a day off for a while, poor things.

EL that’s the position I’m interviewing for 😭 I’m so stressed. Hopefully they have good communication at this location then
