As previously stated, you do not get to dictate to an employer what the schedule is. You want to be in management? As a person in a management position, you would need to be available for scheduling for ANY operating hours. Don't you think that an assistant manager should make more than a cashier?

"Robert said to me was he had to give it to somebody, he came up with all these accusations of how i am unable to work around his schedule but the truth of the matter is he refused to work around mine." The Manager does NOT need to work around YOUR schedule. The job belongs to the employer, not YOU. YOU need to work around his schedule. "I HAVE FIVE CHILDREN and he refuse to give me a raise or allow me enough hours to work but all he kept saying is it's not FAMILY DOLLAR POLICY." Unless Robert is the father of those 5 kids, it is NOT his responsibility to make sure you make enough to do anything. It is his responsibility to make sure there are enough employees scheduled to do the work, for the jobs available. "They let a girl who has worked for them approximately five months be the assistant." "I didn't even recieve a raise after he gave Dana the position so why is she making $1.50 more than me and i was there longer than she was." I'll assume Dana does not insist Robert work around her schedule, nor complains about her 5 kids. If I was Robert, I would not even hire anyone who has kids. I'd only hire childless individuals who I know will be able to work their shifts as assigned. Pretty simple stuff. More and more companies are starting to do exactly this kind of practice in hiring.
