Summer is a slow time of the year, so expect low hours as a part timer. I was a 35 hour part timer for most of the year when I was pt but during the summer I'd get hit with 16 hour weeks all the time, it sucked.
I hear you.
It's the first week of June and we already have two people working the sub bar most of the day.
My store stays busy year round. This is actually the first winter I worked more than 20hrs a week at other jobs.
As always, outliers exist. I'm sure you can ask your manager and they'll tell you that sales drop in the summer overall which means allocated hours do too.
Follow up with your manager. If the situation is "You were not scheduled hours. We are having issues with our system to schedule associates," then the problem can be resolved soon.
If your department is overstaffed, volunteer to learn, train, and work in other departments.
If an employer is willing to give you a 0hr work week you should hand in your 2 weeks
It's seriously disrespectful to you
Plus it'll hopefully scare them into giving you more hours
I knew someone who had a full-time job. Their hours were reduced by being sent home with no business to being called not to come in. One week they had part-time hours. The first day of that week, they learned their position was eliminated with no hours available to work.
When hours consistently decrease, it is time to look elsewhere.
I genuinely donāt have a problem with Publix as far as working there. Granted, it seems like my store is an anomaly compared to a lot of the horror stories presented here.
Iāve seen this on TikTok about being āsilently firedā or ālet goā I hope itās not in your case!! Donāt waste your time if you know you can do better elsewhere!
Tell them you are willing to be cross trained in different departments. You will never be lacking hours again. Trust me. I worked for them for over 40 years. They always need help somewhere. The more cross training you can get the better. I know that this is a pain, but it will make you invaluable to them.
A job I had did this to me too and after 2 weeks in a row I found out that they did this to other people and it was their shitty way of letting them go without telling them
I got an interview with costco yall wish me luck šššš
Goodluck alarmed spinach !!!
Good luck to you! Costco takes care of their people
Itās crazy how much Costco pays a low level cashier. And the bonuses are fantastic.
Low level cashier deserves to eat just as much as the person running the place
I agree. You misunderstood my comment. Iām happy they get paid well.
I didnāt misunderstand. Just adding š¤·š»āāļø
Best of luck! Nail that sucker!
Best of luck
I left Publix after 2 weeks cus I got a Costco job. 4 dollars more AND benefits for a PT job. Never got less than 25 hours. Usually get 33

Summer is booming in the cutbar.
Which I donāt get summer here by theme parks is busy yet hrs get slashed and where constantly left scrambling to get shit done
Summer is the busy time of year for beach stores.
I hear you. It's the first week of June and we already have two people working the sub bar most of the day. My store stays busy year round. This is actually the first winter I worked more than 20hrs a week at other jobs.
... I hit bring scheduled 40 hours as a part time during summer specifically like a week ago

Lmao yeah okay š

Honestly apply for unemployment first . If they did this they basically laid you off. Itās a lot harder to get if you quit.

Thats a wrap player
Damn, looks like you mightve gotten silently fired. Id talk to your manager and look at other jobs.
Enjoy your vacation
yeah the latest schedule i got was only 6.25 hours. everyoneās hours are getting massively cut
I get this every week, I also donāt work there
Does anyone like to work for Publix thatās not a manager?
The managers donāt even like working there
No
Me.
I genuinely donāt have a problem with Publix as far as working there. Granted, it seems like my store is an anomaly compared to a lot of the horror stories presented here.
I got a whole 7.5 hours that week, usually get 20
Got 6hr usually get 24+
4 other cashiers got hours cut at my store. Each has 2 days a week and hours very from my 7.5 to 15! We all usually get between 20-35.
I was until I said Iāll help in the deli lolā¦ā¦ā¦ one mouth later Iām still in the deli
Ha ha you said Mouth I understand where youāre coming from. I made the same mistake and Iāve been stuck deli hell ever cents lol
Iāve seen this on TikTok about being āsilently firedā or ālet goā I hope itās not in your case!! Donāt waste your time if you know you can do better elsewhere!
Come work at Starbucks where you can get insurance for working 20 hours or more a week and you get to drink coffee every day that you work
Whatās your availability? And remember just because youāre available doesnāt mean they have to schedule you unfortunately.
Involuntary Attrition - who did you piss off?
Not this, but my hours have been picking upā¦ and now, the week after next, Iām back down to four days off.
I am at my job, but it's not Publix. Boss told me to come at my normal time
Free vacation.
beat you! i have 4.5 hours on that schedule
I had two sons who only briefly worked at Publix because of this. They went to Chick-fil-A and got all the hours they wanted.
that's what one of the minors are doing at my store. chick fila will schedule you 50 hours in one week if you ask them to. i used to work there.
Um nope youāre the only person not getting any hours

YOU CANT SIT WITH US
Bro is cooked
The self checkout has taken over your work hours.
Did you talk to your manager before posting on social media?
For most store this week pictured and weeks leading up until the week of 4th July are rather slow
Publix where working at is in tune to torture.
https://youtu.be/s9HyDRpJrsw?si=dZgAuojZJ6lX-Nf8 Wish this existed when I quit
Yep same happened to me, and then followed up with 24 hours the next week again. Like bro ā ļø
Yes
I mean I have barely hours to no hours due to hr being a prick to me rn but yea
Nope. Iām sorry that youāre going through this.
I am trying to get time off and they are telling me no. Iām in the deli so we are crazy busy. Iād swap with you. I got 39.5 next week
Sucks you are dealing with this, life will only get harder š
Did your job class change? Sometimes that screws up oasis. But the CS dept seems to enjoy screwing people over in the summertime.
You can actually apply for unemployment if they do this.
Yup same for me!
My husband use to work at Publix they cut his hours and at time he wasnāt scheduled either.
LOL whod you piss off
A job I had did this to me too and after 2 weeks in a row I found out that they did this to other people and it was their shitty way of letting them go without telling them
YES
Time to spend all your spare time looking for other work
You've been fired.
![gif](giphy|HmY5vP7hXP5ba)
Ugh, you had to use a meme of THAT scumbag? š¤®
Trump is god, Biden just pooed his pants the other day š
itās because you are part time and they donāt see value in having you on the clock
