I was un-smart to quit my job. Yet they DID NOT want to work with me on my school schedule. They were making me choose between them and school! I was really stuck between a wall and a hard place. Whenever i had finals i would ask them for less hours and instead they would give me MORE! working 50 hours and having school is not an easy task. I asked to go part time and after 2 failed courses I threatened to leave unless i was given less hours and gone part time. They finally agreed after much tears on my part. Then They got pissed and gave me the WORST HOURS POSSIBLE! all night shifts! Everything was alright for a while and my hours were about 30. THEN CORPORATE wanted MORE! they were pushing for me to do impossible amount of dogs a day! Working by commission is not easy especially when you are forced to do 8 to 10 dogs per day! I would just get them booked under my name i had no choice! So what used to be 8-9 hour days turned into 10 to 12 hour days! I bitched about it but they said IT'S MY FAULT i can't get the dogs done in my 8 hour schedule and if school was that important i would quote "FIND A WAY" well, the chest pains grew larger and larger until I had to go to the hospital, my husband had to pick me up once. I ended up having acid reflux and increases stomach aches and migraines... and even though i would show them doctors notes they never cared. business is business...
so it's seriously quit school or work... and i promised myself i would never quit school again
