[QUOTE="TheFigurehead, post: 1296268, member: 49302"] I can only guess at what the op is getting at... but I think I understand. At my center, when you are hired for the twilight shift, HR (along with the job posting and all of the literature) will tell you your shift runs from 5p - 9p, and it would be a miracle for you to see over 17.5 hours a week. The reality, however, is that my building regularly posts start times for twilight shift as 4p of earlier, depending on how poorly things have been running. So, op takes the job, assuming he'll be working 5 - 9, and is available during those hours. The start times don't align with what he was told, and it's interfering with the rest of his commitments. This is not the OP's fault. He was, blatantly, lied to. I see it all the time. HR lies to new employees, they work about a week, more hours than they expected, and it gets in the way of school or their other job and they never come back... then mgmt gets a puzzled look on their face, and wonder why everyone quits the first month.
