Would you like weekly rotas?

I've started a new job as a food and beverage assistant.
Found out we get a weekly Rota
No set days or hours

This wasn't explained at my interview and I'm wondering how I ever plan things now
Appointments /meeting friends

Stupid things like booking my hair appointment
Wednesdays we find out our shifts for the following week
It's making me question if I have done the right thing

That doesn't sound ideal.
What's the range between hours?

richardbransonn · 18/08/2024 17:59

Anything from 30 to 40
This weeks rota they have someone finishing at 11pm and then back in at 11am next day

It's not something I'd cope well with. I like to be able to plan stuff.

I've done patterns like a week of earlies then mids then lates on a 3 week rotation.

The only time I've done random shifts like that was on a bank contract where I could pick and choose.

I'm not sure if it's going to be the job for me
I'm used to weekends off too
