Offered two jobs, any advice?

if the retail job isn't than you just wont work for them. i work two jobs and one is retail. tell them the days you need off and they will work you on the days you are available. if you go in telling them, oh yeah i'm never available sorry i asked for so many days off, they're going to think twice about you. if you go in telling them this is when i'm available take it or leave it they'll see you as stronger. make them want you.

well, I was once in your shoes. I worked 2 jobs while in highschool. Definitely do it if you feel like you would have the energy to. Choose your main job, which in this case is the one that is 3 days a week for 12 hrs and the retail can work around that. I know they take what they can get they will have no problem working around that. Unless it is a small store and not a franchise, then you would have to speak to the manager or who ever is in charge of the schedule.

If I understand the driving motivation, you are looking for advice as to how to accomplish getting more money.. It sounds like one approach that really is favorable to you would involve seeing if the job you are working at could be flexible on one of the days.

With that in mind, I suggest being honest with the employer that offered you the job, explaining that you took the job with every intention and interest in working with them, but you also need to make more money, and found an opportunity if they would be willing to work with you on one of the days.

This would allow your present employer to either accept, counter negotiate, or decline... In any case, you are thinking about what will move you to your best place, and the universe is responding in kind..

You are never given a dream without the equal capability to make it happen, but sometimes you have to articulate these requirements to those who can help it happen. Good luck.

Saturdays can be very busy for retailers. Depending on the hours you would work on Saturday, consider only taking one job until you know can handle working another job.

Just tell them the days you are avaible for the retail job.. Just say you are in desperate need for money.. Just be real to them.. Tell them !

I you really need the money, than choose the job that suits your needs for now. you can try doing both at the same time, but if make sure you also have time for yourself.

typically retail stores aren't full time anyway so it probably won't be an issue. I have done the same thing before

Yeah.

Retail normally has plenty of emplyees' but as long as your time and work ethic is good, and you enjoy working with people of course, you will love it.

tell ur retail job that u have school on those days that ur studying for a degree.

they might you will just have to talk to them usually retail jobs are pretty flexible about scheduling
