My son works part time. Normally if they schedule him for a week night, it's 3-7 or 6-10, no more than 4 hours. Now I know it's the week before Christmas but he still has school & plenty of homework (he has 7 classes, 2 of which are AP) and 2 nights this week they scheduled him from 3:30-10. Of course they know he's in high school. Does it not take any common sense for the manager to realize that a kid in school can't work 6 1/2 hours on a school night & have no time to do homework--or is he supposed to start his 2-3 hours of HW at 10:30? Of course now he'll have to try to find someone to cover part of the hours. Usually it's not that hard. I told him to speak up, but he said he fears that he won't get any hours then, which I don't think is true.

LOL didn't mean to hijack your thread. Hope your ds was able to get someone to cover some of those long shifts. I guess this time of year management doesn't think about those types of logistics - it's all about how much $$ they can pull in!
