I haven't had a weekend in 8 years.

  Maybe give it a shot this weekend. It's Easter, too.

    That's not how retail works, I could put in for vacation at least two weeks from now but otherwise I get one or more days off more or less at random that by design don't really line up with any one else's days off

      If my experience in retail is any indicator you're lucky if that request gets approved....and even luckier if your manager remembers that they approved your request!

      The apparent randomness of the retail schedule was one of my leading complaints. I didn't really mind that I didn't have Saturday and Sunday off per se, it was that I never had the same day off, so my friends couldn't include me in a consistent game night or something. The constantly changing schedule made retail deeply corrosive to all of my interpersonal relationships, and made holding down a second job nearly impossible (which I really needed when I was part-time).

      When you say retail, you mean like working in a store with shifts?
