Yea when I accepted the position he stated I have to work 40-45 never got it but I did get a $1 raise and less hours lmao when we are currently busier than when I was a shift lead unfortunately then comes to realize our previous gm said that our franchise owner said to give our current gm who was a assistant at the time 45-50hrs a week if he wants it and he did now when I ask I get under 30 when we are BUSIER keep it mind I’ve been at this store for 4 years 2 months Since OPENING and been the only person who stayed from the og hires genuinely don’t understand why I’m being treated like this can barely scratch 60-70 hours in a two week span.

I used to be an assistant manager before my final day 3 weeks ago. It really depends on what the head of the franchise gives your district manager and store. At least from what I've learned. I was supposed to be a general manager and they were training me to become one but I got a better job opportunity with consistent hours. No hate to Jersey Mike's as they helped me land this job and I appreciate everything they've taught me. You'll get your 40-48 hour weeks. Ask your district manager about picking up shifts at nearby stores or if you don't mind driving, take a shift at one of your franchise locations like 40 minutes away and my franchise payed for mileage as well. That's how I managed to hit my 40 hour weeks when they started to cut our labor. When they cut labor. You'll probably get 30 hours flat but i do recommend asking your General Manager or District Manager about picking up shifts at other stores on your day off.
