Since I worked part-time, my schedule would change frequently. For example, one time, I checked my schedule a couple of days ahead to ensure I had work that week. However, when I showed up a few days later, I discovered that my manager had removed all my scheduled hours for that week. This would have been fine if I had received some kind of notice beforehand, so I didn’t have to find out on the spot. An automated email or some other form of notification would have been helpful.
The second issue relates to Telehealth. I’m not sure if employees had a way to verify whether they were speaking with licensed therapists. I know that some telehealth companies have faced scrutiny for not always employing licensed professionals, which raises concerns about credibility.
The third issue involved working closing hours at the store. This was problematic because I relied on public transit, and on certain days, buses were unavailable at the late hours I needed to travel.
Lastly, working in a mall posed a challenge when it came to managing my paycheck. It’s difficult to resist spending money at the very mall where you work. I would also recommend eating at home before starting a shift, as the food court was overpriced and didn’t offer portions that justified the cost. Since you only work for a company in the mall and not the mall itself. You don't get any discount for buying food in the food court.
