Catering to the new girl

The new girl has enough here less than 2 weeks. She is booking days off left and right. Next week 2 weeks off. Didn't mention it when she was hired.
She's 26 and has no concept of how to work or how life is. Her work ethic shows this.
Her second day she was trying to hand me shifts because the shifts too long.
Unless it's due to health or pre approved plans I don't book days off my first 3 months. I booked my holidays and since I clock the most hours I trump everyone.
Now my schedule up to the day I leave for holidays is packed as I work 3 jobs. This new girl doesn't understand this so now I'm frantically trying to bargain with people as her shifts overlap my other jobs.
The girl didn't seem phased. I'm already exhausted from this month and now I'm non stop with petsitting, and my other 2 jobs. The girl goes well I can only work weekends. I wish she knew what it was like to either buy food or buy gas to go to work, or what it's like to actually work multiple jobs. She has no concept of how to cook, wash clothes etc. She I'm just irritated because she has this attitude of so I ahve plans meanwhile I work my other job.

Seems the person responsible for hiring staff likes bimbos. Wonder what they're being paid for...

@ricki_911 Stuffing envelopes by hand in a small room with no window or music or anyone else there to talk to would be boring. Your job entails a variety of things to do and people to meet. How can it be boring? And, it pays the bills (I hope).

@BarBaraPrz I'd enjoy stuffing envelopes 
. I don't mind it and I meet different people. Some days if it's slow thenight I gt bored. But these 2 do nothing and just sit on their phones the entire shift. The one who always uses the excuse I've been busy.

Honestly seems that way.
He is desperate for staff and many find the job boring.

Clocking the most hours doesn't necessarily mean you Trump everyone

By law it does yes. The amount of hours determine how many weeks you get vacation. As I'm full time and minimum 40 hours I off the bat get 2 weeks in a year if I clock that. Part time you get a week. Both have already booked off and taken those. Anything ontop of that you are not entitled to that. If you book it off and I did then that means I get it.

Technically unless medical you are entitled to nothing more. It's determined by the hours you work. Since the new girl has work 15 hours and now expects 14 days off.

Unfortunately this seems to be the Work ethic of some people these days. My husband got promoted to lead back a couple of months ago and this sounds like at least one of the guys who works under him. Makes you wonder

It does! I'm not much older than these two. But just seems like they have no common sense or work ethic.

She clearly does not have realistic expectations, lol. It's so hard to work with someone so clueless, I know. Maybe she'll be gone fast.

I'm hoping so. For example the job is easy garbages outside, bathrooms, fridges etc. So other day she laugh and goes a kid puked in the bathroom. Common sense would be to clean it. So I assumed she did. An hour later someone goes in the bathroom and goes it's rather dirty. She never cleaned it. Garbages are packed full and garbage on the ground. Plus, she expects all these days off.
