Little hours at job?

Hi there,

I'm still a teen, but I've worked 2 jobs so far. The first one I left because of anxiety and lack of hours. I started a new job, and now I'm getting less hours. I'm barely working more than 8 hours a week. This happened at my old job too, and even when I asked for more hours I never got them. I think a huge reason as to why I'm getting little hours is because of my anxiety causing me to make mistakes or coming off as incapable of handling the job. I know the best thing to do is to talk to my manager, but seeing as this has already happened at two jobs -- I don't know.

Has anyone been in a situation like this before?

Yes this has happened to me too I dont no wat kind of job ur in but be honest with boss and let him no u have anxiety attacks and then maybe he or she wont fault u for that .. just take ur time at work and focus on the situation at hand. Be positive and it will get better. Im not sure how long u have been at current job but just keep offering to work more and Im sure they will give u a chance.

@cookie45 Thank you for replying back to my post. Yeah, I think I'll do what you recommended. I'll speak to my Manager and I'll let her know about my anxiety. I hope that over time though that I'll get more comfortable with my job that my anxiety goes down, and that I do get more hours too.

Thank you!
