Concerned. in Since OD is shutting down....

So I’ve been doing some thinking about my new job. I’m not happy at all about my schedule and wondering if should text my old boss about going back there. My new boss has scheduled me to close Thursday night (which means I won’t leave until at least midnight) and I tried to get out of it by telling him I was going to be helping my friend out in her daycare and he said that I will do it as they don’t have anyone else. I have serious issues with this because I don’t like being made to feel like I don’t have choices and the thought of me being out that late makes me really uncomfortable and angry.

At least with my old job I could pretty much have the schedule I want and didn’t have to worry about not making enough money to stay afloat. I’m only scheduled 4-6pm one day next week and yeah that doesn’t mean I will leave at 6pm but if it’s slow, then I will get cut. I’m just worried that I’m never going to have the schedule I want or need and this is making me really scared and uncomfortable. I like the new job because it seems pretty easy and I like the people I work with but I don’t like being made to feel like I don’t have say over my schedule. I also don’t like how they don’t like to give out overtime whatsoever either. Ugh, I just don’t know how to feel about things right now.

I feel really anxious and guilty about already considering going back to my old job because I worked so hard to get in where I’m at and already am feeling pretty comfortable but I need to have a certain schedule not only to make a certain amount of money but so that I don’t have to be stressed about not making enough and I like being able to have a life outside of work.
