I really like it when people ask me for advice, but unfortunatly most of my friends are gone this summer and don't have time to talk to me. And they hardly ever ask me for advice anyway. I need to find less secure friends. Lol. Besides, my summer may get a bit boring. I'm open to any questions, specializing in school work, photography and being a teen. And even if I don't have an answer, it's nice to know someone is as confused as you are.

I've worked for Walgreens for 3 years, for my third year I transferred to a different store close to my school, I haven't had much respect from my boss but I keep trying to make things work.
I got an internship in my field for monday-fridays, so I told my boss @ walgreens that I still want to work saturdays and sundays were ok but I want a day off since summer classes were starting. He said it'd be no problem and that I won't have to work any sundays.
My boss has been scheduling me full weekends for almost over a month now, between my internship and walgreens I haven't had a day off in 5 weeks! I got other responsibilites too such as school, budgeting money, laundry, etc. I have been trying to talk to my boss but he always just avoids or ignores me.
The catch is my internship ends at the end of the year so if I quit walgreens I'll definitely have no job. But my boss always seems to promise and agree to terms and never comes through. I think my reason for quitting is stupid, but I feel that walgreens isn't paying me the respect I've earned (seeing as all the people at this store only worked for the company about a year), and I can't make a single agreement with them 'cuz I have learned I can't trust them. Those reasons and the fact that I'm falling behind in everything else.
I can make it, I know I can, but it's making every lil thing in life harder than it should be. I couldn't even stop by my dad's to say 'happy father's day' because of my hectic work schedule, I feel I'm missing out on a lot but I'd hate to risk unemployment next year. (link)

Start looking for other jobs now. If you know of a place that will hire you, start applying. Make sure they know what times you want to work. That way you have a job you can go to when you quit Walgreens.
