[QUOTE="Bagels, post: 1277498, member: 43436"] Probation is essentially an evaluation period for both you and the company to see if the job's a good fit. For you, this would include the hours. To ensure this isn't a fluke, ask your senior co-workers how many hours they typically average. But you need to work as directed and stay until you're asked to leave (or it's assumed you can leave) -- senior employee get to decide whether they want to stay or go. For the company, it's generally looking at reliability (attendance) and whether or not you're able to perform the work. I live in the Midwest where unemployment is still high, so the company's been able to pick & choose who'd it like to keep over the past several years... people aren't formally fired, the company just makes the decision not to call them back to work, thereby ending their employment. But you'd know if you were in this position since management would (in most cases) talk to you about your performance if it was subpar. [/QUOTE]
