Im 19 and so I got a job this week to work as a waitress at a bar. Working hours are usually until 1am but weekends till 3am sometimes. I already have experience working at a restaurant for 2 years but I never worked till after 10pm. So anyways, yesterday was my first actual shift (I did a short trial shift some days before). I worked only from 8pm till 1am. I DID NOT LIKE IT AT ALL. I had a mini breakdown when I got home (everything in my life is a mess right now so no the breakdown wasn't just about this 5h shift) and I know this is a bitchy move from me but here is what I did:

So once I got home, I texted my boss and her boss at 1:45am the following text:

"Hi, Im really sorry for this but i dont think this job is for me. I mentally cannot manage late hours. I thought I could but I think you should find someone better suited for this job. Sorry again and all the best!".

They still havent responded yet but I know they read it cuz they were still awake (they finished work at 3am) and its now 2pm the next day. I have a shift scheduled today from 5pm till 1am. Does this mean I should still do my shift today if they havent replied? I dont want to

What do you think?

What kind of "anställningsform" do you have? Are you "provanställd"? Read the contract so we get this right.

Varför skriver du på engelska när du skriver svenska i andra inlägg?

Tycker du ska skriva ett sms till chefen typ ” du vet väll att jag inte kommer idag eftersom jag har slutat ”

I didnt sign any contract yet.

Also, coincidence but she just replied:
"Yes sorry I did not have time to reply but thank you for information and good luck "

Im glad she took it well or so it seems

You could send a follow up text, something like "Hi again, just checking in to see that you have received my text from last night and to make sure you have my spot covered. Again, sorry for any inconveniences."

That you will not be working there again. But you should show up today and sort it out in person and if they are short staffed because you quit consuder offering to do your shift.

Then go sell icecream.

Yeah she just replied however this so I guess it's sorted: "Yes sorry I did not have time to reply but thank you for information and good luck "

Not doing the ice cream thing either, im gonna keep looking for a job until i find one that really clicks with me. I know its not ideally the time for this cuz im broke and need a job asap but i dont wanna settle for anything like everyone in my situation does. Im even gonna try a small business thing in case i dont find a job, i know it sounds cliché and like it wont work but ill try. I dont like having a boss over me. Either way, im glad this bar thing is sorted, she seems to have taken it well

Be mature and talk with your boss face to face before leaving. If I was your boss I would think that you’re an idiot that quit your job through SMS.

Dress up and go to your boss at the restuarant and tell him that this job wasn’t for you.

If you come to Sweden as a refugee, don’t be a bitch and take any job you can get.

You can explore new jobs while you’re working, instead of being poor and surving thanks to us swedes who pay our taxes.
