I’ve been working for this place for two years and my bosses and I became really close. They want to change my schedule to have to work until 9 every Friday and Saturday starting in October. I currently work every Saturday until 6. How do I tell them no

Tell your boss that they schedule change interferes with your own schedule and is there anyway to work around it?

Make it clear that this is non negotiable- it doesn’t have to be mean. Like 1 said, it’s just business

Say, “hey that’s actually outside of my availability. I’d like to keep my schedule the way it is, as that’s the best time for me to see my family/spend time with them”

There isn’t a way to work around it because I’m in college so I’m just unwilling to do it because I don’t have any boundaries set with this place but this is one I feel I need because it affects my family life

I think you’re overthinking it. It’s purely business.

Business means straight to the point. Just gotta clarify what you want the most forward way possible.

Update my boss pretty much said no and that if they decide to go through with it I will have to work until 9. Is this my sign to quit

My boss said no about when I said I’m not going to be able to work until 9 he said if they decide to go through with that I’ll have to. So is this my sign to quit
