Graduated 5 years ago, did some time at walgreens, hopefully never have to go back there...
Now i work for a grocery chain in SW and like many other grocery chains recently my staff rph hours were cut from 40 to 32 which obviously comes with a paycut. Just have one more year of loans left and they will be paid off and i wont have to make any adjustments to them with this paycut. Since the announcement there has been a lot of shifting in positions with people leaving, etc.
A few manager positions have opened up and I am tempted to apply because I fear for job security and think it may be better to have manager experience for applying for future jobs if needed. One of them is at a slower very organized store with a good staff rph and tech that I have worked with before i was staff rph at my current store. The manager is leaving because of the new schedule for PIC
Part of me is perfectly content being 32 hours staff rph and then part of me is thinking obviously if they cut more hours eventually mine will be the hours being cut.
However the store I am at now is one of the busiest stores in the entire area so that also gives me some security to stay in a busier store as opposed to manage an average or slightly below average volume store. Another issue is that the PIC schedule during the heavy week works saturday-following friday with just one week day off. With planning to start a family in another year or so this seems absolutely horrible to me to only have one full day off within a 7 day span.
