Hey, Donna..I agree. one day a week is definitely NOT worth it! My bet is that's why they put you on that shift. I had the same problems with my retail jobs. I always got the late shift, every weekend, because the other woman were full timers. Tough. I suggested they split it every other weekend and that lasted one month. I would give them notice weeks in advance if I needed to leave early etc but just like you, it didn't work.
One more rant..sorry..
Once I went in at 6p on a weekday (right from my primary job), told the mamager I had to leave at 8p to drive my dad somewhere. She said no. I stopped the store GM, explainedd to her that she was lucky I came in at ALL, she agreed, reprimaned the assist.manager, who dragged me into a storeroom to ask me why I reported her. Well, duh. So from then on, if I knew dad or mom had a doctor's appointment, I just called out. My "parttime job, 12 hrs a week, turned into 30+. When I quit, they begged me to return. I had the highest sales in my department..more than the fulltimers and they wanted me to teach a class on sales technique. More money? No. A favor. My answer of course was "Sorry, no deal. Minimum wage, lousy dept managers, forget it"
Sorry, I bored you all. Donna, I'm so HAPPY you rescued Winky. I'm glad he's so happy, the sweet boy.
